also YASSSSSSSSS
the re-up = a victory lap
all deluxe re-releases are victory laps, almost by definition. the original Roman Reloaded was pretty much a victory lap itself, though. she's just running in circles.

"i'm legit" is totally one of her best songs ever though imo

yeah uh...this isn't very good. Some really nice moments in the verses but that chorus just sucks the life out of the room. And video is ridic.

"Freedom" really is a contender for worst song of the year, opening couplet is "they never thank me for opening tours/ but they ain't even thank Jesus when he died in the cross"
― some dude, Tuesday, 20 November 2012 15:29 (eleven years ago) link
Jesus died for somebody's percentage of the door, but not mine.

i don't even fuck w/ "i endorse these strippers" that much... it could be so much better i.e. her verse on the 2 chainz album

i like the "these bitches is my sons" thing better since she started going OTT with it, it's like a calling card or something

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.’"
― Some-D (some dude), Tuesday, 30 July 2013 12:21 (ten years ago) link
that was amazing, especially as i imagine nicki hasn't given that incident a second's thought since

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.

also are we discussing this so not gonna happen kinda lol but mostly sad DJ khaled proposing to nicki thing?
― 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.
― hello :) (upper mississippi sh@kedown), Tuesday, 30 July 2013 16:58 (ten years ago) link
I don't want to spoil anything for anyone, but Nicki Minaj raps her verse on the upcoming Big Sean album as a crack mom, and it is truly, truly abhorrent
