Nicki Minaj - The Pink Print (2014)

idk it's too girly for me, nohomophobic

Lol at masculinity.

it's always funny when someone stumbles into actually explicitly saying "ew girly!" rather than cloaking it in objectivity

I still think "Anaconda" is really fun until it just turns into a shitty trap remix. Love the video, you boys can all go home.

"aside from having an awesome beat"

really dude. Having "Blurred Lines" flashbacks where everyone except me likes the beat (that one was the same BS post-peak Neptunes Pharrell has always got criticized for BTW but for some reason got a pass) and I feel like I'm trippin'. but shit is wack

"objectivity" ? It is too girly for my tastes and I like certain girly shit

if that's a bad adjective I just think it's a lame song

It is a fun beat but I'm personally of the opinion that Iggy Australia's minstrel ass can go fuck herself.

first things first gday mate

hate on anything else about her but please no not the minstrel ass

That Drake bit is so awful, like a Mrs Brown's Boys bit or something

yeah totally

i would never have gone in on the 'massive attack' video for its pitifully clueless awkwardness had i known this was in store

oh well guess i'll have to settle for ogling

Could not make it through the song. Though at the ice skating rink with my kids yesterday I heard some weird chopped up remix of "Baby's Got Back" which was not this, afaict. Will be awesome if/when this Nicki things gets traction and they go to youtube, their preferred method of listening to music, though of course they like the pop stuff better so may just miss this mess entirely.

I love the song but the video... ugh. I don't know what I was hoping for but this isn't it.

im more into the song now tbh, i could see a DJ using it properly

most valuable new posters, def

the girlyness of fancy is the only thing to like imo, it's got a certain old school sassiness, salt n pepa, l'trimm etc etc

whats funny is its the BEAT dude thinks is too girly lololol

hate this song ... so girly

that part where she gives drake a lapdance is so bad
the song and video are bad in general

i've grown to like the first two verses of anaconda but then it just kinda sits there - bad sign when your extended coda gets outshone in the video by drake sitting in a chair

loooooooool

good grief.

interesting interpretations of nicki's post-modern co-opting of sexist video tropes

even the singing part feels perfunctory after "stupid hoe" and "come on a cone"

ew i didn't know that heterodudes ACTUALLY jerk off to music videos ugh

lol

and i thought the r/taylorswiftarmpit subreddit was bad

perfect nicki jpeg acccompanying that r/discush tbf

and i thought the r/taylorswiftarmpit subreddit was bad

i can't tell what's real or jokes now

can we stop having videos with shaking butts for a few months?

Nicki basically has three types of songs, her emo Katie Perry rapsing bullshit, her queen of england quirky verbal tic Japanese sex robot songs, & her busta on scenario burn down the track amazing verse songs. 2 of the 3 suck and are more likely to be on albums where the good stuff is more bound for YouTube & mixtapes so it makes sense the albums won't be that good

this song doesn't suck imo but it's also not worth reading any thinkpieces about, ever

I'm here for questioning-his-existence Drake

nah, it's the whole thing. you're nitpicky, sry if it's not the best word man

+ I like plenty of synthpop/more women-friendly rap so i'm not setting up some dumb "REAL raw rap" vs. this dichotomy

been jamming Rihanna/Future "Loveeeee Song" lately, super-duper girly soft

Fancy is super-girly anyway, tho maybe I'm being rly masculine reading girliness into the Clueless video. I love it, anyway

"some of my best friends are girly!"

lol that people are surprised music videos inspire masturbation, the reddit is funny though

re that article, I can appreciate sex-positive feminist ideas but I don't see how you can isolate the feminist intention in a video from the sexist reception of it

there's been these terrible ads for protein water in Denmark over the summer, and the video reminded me of them

The last setup involves Nicki giving Drake a lap dance and walking away after presumably giving him a boner, making this Drake’s second most embarrassing public erection after Jimmy’s classroom boner in Degrassi. Drake, of all people — stripper-fetishizing emo prince Drake — is the sexual object in “Anaconda.” And with that final inversion, Nicki more or less flips the whole twerking issue onto its stomach, where it can continue to hump the ground forever.

i don't understand this at all how is sweatpants boner drake the sexual object in this video?

you'd be surprised how many women can make an object out of "if jay-z and elliott gould had a baby"

idgi either. nicki is clearly the object of drake's desire. her desire isn't even hinted it. on that score, the only inversion i see is that she retains control, commands desire without being bound by it. but yeah, maybe we're meant to understand that he's the object simply because he's hot?

Leaving the dude w an unfulfilled boner is how every lap dance ends

have you seen showgirls? some dudes achieve fulfillment

That was a great documentary
