Nicki Minaj got back to her rap roots on 'Pills & Potions' (and back to her emo side), and now there's a video to accompany it. What do you think of the song and the visuals?

Nicki Minaj got a lot of shit from the hip hop community when she went all 'Starships' on everyone, but she always vowed to get back on track and back to her rap roots on her next album, and she seems to be holding up her end of the bargain.
While I've only listened to her new single, 'Pills N Potions', once, it seems like it might be a grower. It's a bit of an emo track, as far as these things go, but still fire on the verses and it really shows off what Nicki started off doing and what she does best: rapping. There are so...
Nicki Minaj seems to have gotten out of her crazy Barbie phase and is now into a more understated look, which really suits her - she's a gorgeous girl. One thing that hasn't left her, however, is her urge to strip down wherever, whenever... like in a new series of ads for Moscato. In particular her own brand, Myx Fusions Moscato.
She looks fantastic!

If there's one celeb that loves a revealing/naked selfie, it's Rihanna. However, this isn't about her, it's about Nicki Minaj, because she loves showing off her body just as much (I just don't see as many of her shots since I don't follow her on social media. Mistake?) and has been posting photo after photo of herself in the shower, without makeup and now, on vacation in Mexico.
I dunno what kinda filters homegirl uses (or who she has take the photos), but I think she looks great. I don't real...
Nicki Minaj's new song, 'Lookin' Ass N***a', is pretty awful in a lot of ways, not least of which is her decision to use a photo of Malcom X as part of the artwork when the lyrics are all about how she's (metaphorically, natch) "raping" people, and how she'll never get with a man who doesn't have a dick and all this other bullshit.
Of course, people weren't too happy about that, so now she's defended her decision (and removed the photo) on Instagram:
"What seems to be the issue now? Do yo...
Nicki Minaj earned a nice chunk of cash American Idol for one season and released an album full of club tracks before taking a while off and telling people that she was over the whole 'Starships' phase of her career and was ready to get back in the rap game, where she started. This was exciting to hear - I was always a fan of her early mixtapes and while I don't mind the radio-friendly dance songs, I was always missing that Nicki attitude.
So, when I heard she had released a new video/single called 'Lookin' Ass N***a', I was on that shit like white on rice. And then... I was ki...
Lorde better get ready for another fight with a female singer, since she's (sort of) dissing Nicki Minaj and Lana Del Rey (and Drake, too!) for their music. Lorde is known for the hit "Royals", a song that starts with "I've never seen a diamond in the flesh..." and she revealed what inspired her song about songs about opulence. From Interview magazine via HipHollywood:
Around the middle of last year I started listening to a lot of rap, like Nicki Minaj and Drake, as well as pop singers like Lana Del Rey. They all sing about such opulence, stu...
One could never accuse Nicki Minaj of a lack of self-confidence. In a way, it's sort of refreshing, if not expected - especially for a female in rap - but that doesn't make it any less obnoxious at times. Case in point: Nicki is releasing a new perfume range, entitled... (wait for it)... MINAJESTY. You know, like 'Her Majesty' but with Nicki's name put in it, since she's a Queen and runs this shit, etc. Insert eye-roll here.
I'm not a fan of celebrity fragrances (though admittedly, Jennifer Ani...
I've been a fan of Nicki Minaj for years, back since the mix tape days, but she sorta lost me a bit over the past couple of years. However, she recently won me over again after an interview she gave at Hot 97, during which she revealed that she's done with the pop and ready to get back to her rap roots. That's obviously not why she won me over (though it doesn't hurt) - what did remind me of just why I loved Nicki from the beginning is how smart and straightforward she is and how unwilling she is ...
Nicki Minaj's hypeman S.B. (Scaff Breezy) originally shared the above photo on his Twitter, because, I dunno, why not? Nicki retweeted it for the same reasons and now we all know more about what exactly Nicki Minaj's boobs are like. Hurrah!
The shot was apparently a "throwback" to a shoot Nicki did for W magazine. I'm not sure why anyone needed to see this or why you would want anyone to see this, but whatever. Congrats on the nice jugs, I guess?
If this is the kind of stuff she's doing ...
American Idol is a shit show that should have thrown in the towel a few seasons back, but you know what they say: the show must go on... and on and on and on, even when people stop watching it. In any case, there's been lots of talk about the judges panel and Idol producers wanting to clean house to bring an all-alum table, but until now there was no confirmation. You know, besides the ink on Jennifer Hudson's contract nearly drying already.
Mariah Carey and Nicki Minaj have both confirmed...
I doubt a leak is ever unintentional these days, but let's play along and say that Ciara's new track 'I'm Out', which features Nicki Minaj, has hit the internet and we're all surprised because we weren't supposed to hear it yet. How do these things happen, gosh darnit? It wasn't ready yet!!!
The track will appear on Ciara's upcoming self-titled collection and is the follow up to her first single, 'Body Party', which wasn't all that great. It's been a long while since Ciara really had a killer track ('Ride It' being probably the most recent), and her feud with Rihanna won't help, but bless her heart, she's trying.
What do you think of 'I'm Out'? Forgettable? Possibly a grower? Total snoozefest? />
