I'm Nicki Minaj, Nicki Lewinsky, Nicki the Ninja, Nicki the Boss, Nicki the Harajuku Barbie

i got an offer to go see summerjam and just couldn't handle the thought of the busride to the meadowlands with the fans

i really love her verse on xtina's "woohoo", which is about the only worthwhile thing on the mess that is xtina's new album. "left from jamaica, go a foreign conTOUR" <3 <3

forks are u more racisty or sexisty??

so Nicki's playing this club in South Amboy, NJ two Sundays from now and tickets cost $90, WHAT THE FUCK.

As psychotic as it sounds, that's almost in the ballpark of typical for club rap shows - also, it's pretty much a guarantee that she'll start 90 minutes late and perform 5 songs.

brilliant observation deej; I see you've gone and earned your ad hominem merit badge. wear that with pride.

lol it was a joke dude

oh. i was genuinely butthurt on that one.
clearly my actual sexy racism motivating my things white people like guilt

it was an horribly formed joke, probably fair to be annoyed by it

it was 5am and i was drunk. mea culpa

plus i hung out w/ john d recently so

her "all I do is win" verse is dope

ask the irs, I'm payin for your health care

I look like YES and you look like NO

^^^

"Knockout" with her and Wayne is incredibly bad. Wayne and smug, slurring autotune over Avril covering some random old MxPx song

this verse & accompanying slice of video is 25% dope, 25% awful, 25% rofl & 25% I KNEW LEFT EYE, AND YOU, MA'AM, ARE NO LEFT EYE

i felt really bad for her about "knockout" -- obviously there is no way she can turn down wayne if he asked for a feature, and i'm sure she was just praaayyyying that it didn't get selected as one of the songs for video, cuz that shit is embarrassing

my xp refers to http://www.thefader.com/2010/06/21/video-diddy-f-rick-ross-nicki-minaj-hello-good-morning-rmx/

also lol @ whoever directed that video not even bothering to match up nicki's mouth with the verse

I understand why everyone hates this girl, and most of the people I've introduced her to have switched teams and now find her grating, but I just cannot stop loving her. I think it's just the little subtleties (the way she moves her face, her attitude and delivery, etc.)

i think if they were actually "subtleties" people would find her a lot less grating

^^^^otm

was gonna say

ok subtleties is totally not the right word. Nuances maybe? The sort of things I can't really put my finger on. I mean, it's not things like "Alexander McQueen's got a wrist on glow"

i think "embellishments" might be a better word

Yes!! That is much better.

it's seriously blowing my mind that in your imagination Nicki Minaj can discern between Lil Wayne's bad tacky ideas and his good ones

You might be right but she doesn't even attempt to sell that video the way stuff does other stuff

that knockout video is really something else

love her verse on the drake album though!

oh and 'your love' is pretty great too. kinda problematic how easy it is to forget it's supposed to be her big single right now, though?

anyway i think i met him in the sky
when i was a geisha he was a samurai
somehow i understood him when he spoke thai

historical liberties aside, i like what she's doin thur

"embellishments" is a much kinder word than "affectations", which could also work

historical liberties aside

lol, minaj has never exactly been accurate in her references. "i be out in china spendin yenz'z'z"

i hate "your love" and it's weird to me that it's somehow become her first proper hit - i really hope she doesn't pursue this route any further

the lyrics, my god, the lyrics

"bottoms up" video! you know, i really like this.

i will say that i far prefer the betty boop voice to the, um, other voice

she is so smashable right now, rawr

yeah this one's a minor classic imo. mmts and nicky complement each other well.

really like the production too, sounds simliar to the lil c 'rubberband banks' type beats young dro & grand hustle were coming out with a while ago.

the two tracks that keep springing to mind for me are usher's "lil freak" and omarion's "i get it in". the former, cuz it's like a less try-hard, desperate take on it. the latter, cuz it comes off at first at being completely generic, but that actually allows for a lot more compelling odd touches, like mmts's backing vox for one, and most obviously in the way that backdrop allows weird character rappers like gucci and nicki to be really playful.

...trey?
...i was like, yo, trey?
...do you think you could buy me a bottle of rosé?
OK LET'S GET IT NOW
i'm with a bad bitch, he's with his friends
i don't say hi, i say keys to the benz

rumrumrumrum

This is one of those songs where most of what's going is totally ordinary and forgettable but you would be insane to change the channel b/c any minute now Nicki is going to show up and just totally fucking freak out on the mic. If she was consistently this brilliant she'd be the best MC in hip-hop, I mean Jesus this sounds great on the record:

I'm with a bad bitch, he's with his friends
I don't say I hi I say keys to the Benz
Keys to the benz!
Keys to the benz!
Mu'fuckin' rite, yeah, B to the 10
If a bitch try to get cute imma stomp her
Throw a-lotta-money-at-her then yell fuck her
Fuck her!
Fuck her!
Then yell fuck her!
Then imma go and get my Louis belt, slug her

Her stylist must loathe her. Cute hair, but both of her outfits made her look like a pregnant hooker.

she does look like she's in labor there

everyone knows i like to rag on nicki but it's really some fucking bullshit that they couldn't fit her into the real show
