Nicki Minaj

The ever-controversial Wolf Gang capo aka Tyler, the Creator, sent out a tweet earlier today expressing his discontent with the guest verse on Nicki Minaj’s “Beez In The Trap,” which was clearly a slight to said featured artist, 2 Chainz. The Duffle Bag Boy took it upon himself to keep it Tru and retweeted Tyler’s comment adding, “She should put you on it.so you can rid ur BIKE n da vid.” If this turns into an actual rap beef you better believe hilarity will ensue.

TUGE continues his campaign as one of the dopest new emcees just under the radar by jumping on Nicki Minaj’s “I Am Your Leader” featuring Rick Ross and Cam’ron. The NYC bar-flipper brings some clever punchlines and humorous references on this jumpin’ production off Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded. If TUGE brings the same type of tracks  he’s been dropping on his upcoming mixtape Ignorant Elegance then a lot of these new rappers might want to stick with their day jobs.

“Ball like the NBA, but my wrist on hockey league / and my kicks is hard, got on my Mr. Miyagi feets / Tell Nicki put it on top of me, Ima beat it up like it’s Rocky III / and tell her she don’t gotta eat a bagel to swallow papi seeds.” –  @WhatYaSayTUGE

So apparently, Nicki feels that her sophmore album will do more numbers than Pink Friday. She will be doing a world tour, hitting more areas, and feels it will catapult her sales. Thoughts?

On M.I.A. and the Super Bowl incident: “I love M.I.A. She’s cuckoo sometimes, but I love her.”

On whether she believes in the sophomore jinx: “Hell no! This album is gonna sell so much more than Pink Friday. Ask me this question two years from today, Clue. With me, I’m never about first week and all that. I like to look at it for the long haul. I’ma travel, I’ma meet my beautiful babies, my Barbz everywhere, and this is my first time I’m gonna get to do a world tour, so the album is gonna do its thang.”

On mixing pop, R&B, and hip-hop on Roman Reloaded: “When I first got in the studio, it was just gonna be all rap, that’s why I named it Roman Reloaded. Things just don’t keep my attention long enough to only do one thing. By the time the album was done, it was just a versatile album. But I have to say, I feel like people love saying the pop word first. The album is more hip-hop than pop.”

…Actresses perform “Superbass” karaoke and fashion editors fawn over Nicki’s theatrics. Legend has it that after hearing Nicki’s verse on “Monster,” one of the song’s other MCs called it the best female rap verse ever. But in the eye of the storm, who has time to smell the flowers and check their hashtags? Refusing to lie back and bask in her success, Nicki keeps her steamroller moving full speed ahead, fueled by hard lumps of coal. While we all debate and discuss her, Nicki will launch her sophomore album, Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded…and her fashion line…and her fragrance line…and her world tour—all moving forward with a firm grip on the steering wheel.

Drake premiered this on Flex this evening. This will be on that Take Care album dropping on November 15th. It’s average if anything. I wonder how many time Drake smashed Nicki, he needs to update us on if that shit is good or not. Thoughts on this track?

If you ask me, actress Dania Ramirez (The Sopranos, X-Men 3, Entourage) is fly as hell and can do no wrong. She just released this spoof titled “Ass & Titties” in which she plays Nicki Minaj padded up in the aformentioned areas. Mena Suvari also stars in the video as Lindsay Logan. The comedy spoof takes place on a fictional “Wannabe Celebrity Avenue” which would obviously be a shot at the people played in the video which also include Kim Kardashian, Lady Gaga and Ray J. Sorry Dania but personally I think this is corny. Maybe comedy just isn’t you lane, ma. Check out the slanderous clip and see what you think.
