Is it any wonder American students rank 25th in math and 21st in science compared to students in 30 industrialized countries?

Nicki is actually releasing a new single "Va Va Voom" next week.I guess this is the new strategy for releasing albums: you release several singles before the album drops.Her album is due on April 3rd.

niki minaji is not a leader or an activist. she is a pop star who takes advantage of her sexy images. niki using a barbie image is not a black thang. it is a white stereotype that been around since beety boop. people in this sight need to get a clue, niki minji is not a reflection of black woman, she is a reflection of black explotation that is rampant in the music industry.

thumbs up! TRUTH.

Nicki Minaj Breaks VEVO Record With 'Stupid Hoe' Music Video

January 25, 2012 02:49:56 GMT


The 'Super Bass' hitmaker has drawn a total of 4.8 million views in 24 hours through her newly-premiered music video.

Nicki Minaj is celebrating another unprecedented feat yet again. The femcee, who became the first female rapper to top Billboard Rap Songs since Lil' Kim and score Hot 100 highest-charting single in nearly a decade, now breaks VEVO record with her "Stupid Hoe" music video.

The Hype Williams-directed clip, which features Minaj as a foul-mouthed barbie, "clocked 4.8 million views, the highest single-video VEVO number in 24 hours ever." Before informing her Twitter followers about the achievement, she posted, "So blessings & love to all of u!!! Excel today. Excel."

"Stupid Hoe" is one of the singles confirmed for Minaj's upcoming album "Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded" which was recently pushed back from February 14 to April 3. "Have no fear. Tons of surprises before then," she assured her fans when announcing the delay.

She's indeed expected to debut more videos before the album release. One of them is the "Roman in Moscow" clip, and another one is visuals for "Turn Me On". She recently confirmed on Twitter, "Yep! 'Turn Me On' is on the album. Video to come any day now..."

Rumor of the week: Nicki Minaj will perform "Stupid Hoe" on the SuperBowl eek nuts

Nicki is one of Madonna's special guests at the upcoming SuperBowl halftime show.This week,a setlist "leaked" indicating that not only will Nicki join Madonna for her new single,she will also debut her own new single on the show.

OFFiCIAL SETLIST?

L.U.V Opening
Give Me All Your Luvin - Madonna feat Nicki Minaj and M.I.A
Express Yourself - Madonna
Stupid Hoe - Nicki Minaj
Vogue 2012 mix - Madonna
Music/Holiday - Madonna feat Cee Lo Green and L.M.F.A.O (Giant Choreography)

I doubt that this news is legit.After Janet Jackson's Nipplegate fiasco,I'm sure that this performance will be controversy-free...lol....the Super Bowl is a family event,after all."Stupid Hoe" is obviously inappropriate,lol.

Minaj made a song about herself? *giggling*

She sets women in general - and black women specifically - back a billion years.

And the fact that there's young girls out there who actually emulate her and think she's cool is fucking scary. There really needs to be some more positive female role models out there to kinda counteract the damage she's doing.

I'll say this "song" and video sets hip hop back two billion years. Pure shit. I guess I'm really getting old because this brand of noise just doesn't move me in any regard. Pure bullshit.

Nicki Minaj’s ‘Stupid Hoe’ Video Features Writhing, Disappointment

By Dodai Stewart Jan 24, 2012 11:00 AM

http://jezebel.com/587876...ppointment

Neon-colored, hyperkinetic, with nanosecond cuts, double-dutch, faux-ga (that's fake yoga), animal print and a monkey, Nicki Minaj's new video, "Stupid Hoe," went up four days ago, already has 7 million views on YouTube and has caused "stupid hoe" to trend on Twitter. The track is basically a tear-down, a dis track, and Nicki comes out swinging against her unnamed opponent (perhaps Lil' Kim?) Nicki's lighting-fast flow is limber, and some of the lyrics are clever — "I'm Angelina, you Jennifer, come on, bitch, you see where Brad at?" But, for the most part, Nicki repeats one phrase, over and over:

The end of the song builds into a frenzy as Nicki chants, "fuck a stupid hoe."

When debuting the clip, Nicki took to Twitter to state: "Can't premiere on a network b/c its important that my art is not tampered with, or compromised prior to you viewing it for the 1st time." Translation: Most of this song will get bleeped out when it's on TV. Censorship of Art!

Most unfortunate are the shots of Nicki Minaj in a cage, a la Shakira. We have discussed black women in cages before — most notably Amber Rose and Grace Jones. It's a tired, troubling visual. In this context, we're supposed to see Nicki as threatening, wild, dangerous. But the objectification and exoticization of black women is steeped in racism. Our history includes centuries of slavery in which black people were chained, shackled, muzzled, and yes, caged. Nicki placing herself there doesn't invoke terror, and not just because she's popping her booty. Male rappers telegraph menace through threats of violence, brandishing guns or boasting of assaults and drive-bys. Is there a good way for a black woman to show she's a force to be reckoned with, without reverting to ancient stereotypes of the sexualized beast, the predatory Jezebel? Absolutely. But Nicki hasn't found it yet.

Some may argue that the video is parody, mocking Lil' Kim and/or wannabes. But as MTV's Sam Lansky writes in a letter to Nicki:

When a parody of something is virtually indistinguishable from the thing being parodied, the whole point has a way of getting lost, and everything ends up just self-cannibalizing.

Hip-hop has always been about braggadocio, and certainly male artists release tracks about bitches and hoes without anyone blinking. But we only have one female rapper on the Billboard charts right now. With her candy-colored wigs and makeup, she has tons of young fans. ("You a stupid hoe" has most likely already become a favorite recess chant.) It's disappointing that with "Stupid Hoe," she talks so much, so quickly, and yet has nothing worthwhile to say.

Oh gawd! Is it really that deep? It's fun to look at. The end. It's certainly not high art. As far as the song goes, it's not like she's say something that isn't true. Have you ever seen a Lil' Kim interview? She's stupid as fuck. And how'd she come up in the game? By sittin' on a married man's dick. That's a hoe.

^ Not to defend Kim or anything but Kim and BIG did have a relationship prior to BIG and Faith (they only got acquainted for nine days allegedly). Despite this, Kim carried on an affair with him and Faith and Kim used to get in fights (Faith recalls a one-sided fight between them in 1995 after she caught her with BIG). I think BIG is mainly to blame though for that situation. I guess you have to be in the circle to know why Kim loved the man the way she did.

And Nicki's video is just stupid lol I don't know about that essay - though I can see why it would bother some folks - but Nicki played herself with that video (and other videos she's done). lol I know she claims she don't take herself seriously, but Jesus Christ, does she really want us to believe she's that wacky? lol

well, since i'm not a 'pro-hoe' mentality when it comes to words, high art is a secondary to the content and message. too bad such beautiful young women have to digress to a childish verbal ping-pong game via the radio air waves.

Nicki didn't used to be like that. When she was dropping mixtapes and videos, she actually looked normal - and hot. Now she looks real ridiculous. neutral Her lyrics have gotten dumber and her videos just make her look real silly.
