i like "right thru me" quite a bit, but...idk, i felt that nicki's ability to be a RAPPER at the same time as a POP STAR was one of the things that made her pretty special in today's climate, and it's a bit sad to see no evidence of that in her solo career proper apart from the failed first single (which is still leagues better than the slush that's followed it)
― لوووووووووووووووووووول (lex pretend), Friday, 15 October 2010 18:44 (thirteen years ago) link
yeah the further "Massive Attack" recedes into the distance of practically never having existed, the more I appreciated as a better representation of her stilted cartoon swag than the shits she's been releasing since then. you wouldn't think it'd be that hard to translate Nicki's schtick into a Missy-style goofy hit, but she's struggling with it.

what are those lines at the top??
now i have to ponder which disappoints me more: the squandered potential of nicki as a rapper or the squandered potential of this cover
― truly blunted rhyme fiend (J0rdan S.), Friday, 15 October 2010 20:06 (thirteen years ago) link
The no-arms thing is pretty cool. I have no problems with the font. But those bars at the top of the photo are pointless. I know there would be too much wasted space without them, but they're still pointless.
― altered boners (rennavate), Friday, 15 October 2010 20:07 (thirteen years ago) link
if they were worried about space they could've had her flush along the bottom of the image w/ the title in different font up top
― truly blunted rhyme fiend (J0rdan S.), Friday, 15 October 2010 20:08 (thirteen years ago) link
the lines kind of look like blinds, or shop shutters about to come down? like she's in a window display. they could have made a bit more effort if that's what they were going for though.

yeah i could see that -- i feel like that would've been a doper motif, tho maybe a bigger budget would've been called for -- as it stands now it looks like the image of her as barbie got shopped onto a wedding invitation

But I will leave you with this anecdote from Drake about one of his first encounters with Miss Minaj, who he had a major crush on:
"I remember one of the first nights that we were out in Miami and I went to Jerry’s. I was like, ‘You want food, you hungry?,’ and she was like, ‘Yeah, I want some food.’ I was like, ‘I’m in, we gon’ eat food together.’ I came to her door and she took the food and shut the door in my face! I was just like, ‘Man, this is gonna be a long road for us.’"

do people really question nicki's technical skill as a rapper?
that seems really silly to me.
she's obviously concocted this entire pop mythology and weird stylistic quirks around that in her delivery but, at heart, she's a New York technician IMO.

― hello :) (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Tuesday, 30 July 2013 16:44 (ten years ago) link
I feel like there's a long tradition of people (men and women) assuming female rappers can't rap by default. You don't really need to compare Nicki to guys who do something completely different from her to make the point that she has skills (esp when one of those people is terrible).
― My Buddy® of sexting (DJP), Tuesday, 30 July 2013 16:44 (ten years ago) link
i posted the vid on a Khaled thread but i don't think we really discussed it. it's hilarious but obv a joke/stunt to promote their new singles together so w/e.
Nicki's flow and vocal ability are crazy but if 'technical skill' encompasses the ability to consistently put together words that rhyme and make sense and sound good, she's pretty erratic. and her 'serious' verses are generally dull as dirt. compared to most of her contemporaries still pretty near the top, though.
― Some-D (some dude), Tuesday, 30 July 2013 16:51 (ten years ago) link
yeah i guess i don't necessarily mean "technical skill" (in this sense) as a positive or negative term...I just mean in terms of being able to deliver rhymes very quick, crisply, etc etc....I'm not saying like Chino XL is the greatest rapper of all time or anything...but Nicki is definitely "skilled" in that sense, I guess I don't feel super strongly about her other than I enjoy her being around when I hear her, so I leave it to others to evaluate her as a rapper on the whole.
