Before her first album came out. She WAS pretty good.

I did hear her raps before her album came out. My only question is "what happened?" Plus she looked way better then than she does now. neutral

That is because in her early years as an underground artist, Nicki was more human and black.

Yes, I said it! F*** political correctness.

Such ashame. I really really liked Pink Friday. The album as part R&B, part rap, part pop. It was really good. I think Guetta ruined her lol

I was actually feeling Nicki when she first was becoming big about 3 years back.

She has this song called "Autobiography" that's pretty deep.

But of course she sold out..

You know what, I'm sick of this bullshit. rolleyes It's time for for my fellow orgers to get some home truth once and for all.

You know what pisses me off about Nick Minaj?

1. First, she was a Lil'Kim clone without show any respect to THE real Lil'Kim in the process.


2. Then, she wanted to be a white woman like a hip-pop version of Lady Gaga AND Madonna so to speak.


3. Now she taking the Japanese anime/manga gimmick over the top, both visually and musically.

Excuse freaking me, but all of THIS^ is not what true hip-hop/rap is all about. Oh hell, it not even real hip-pop neither! disbelief

I loved Stupid Hoe (besides the video) and Roman in Moscow, I'm just hoping this is the only desperate single on the album. Cuz Nicki is best when she's being vicious.

Nicki Minaj Talks Grammy Performance, Madonna, M.I.A., & ‘Starships’

Minaj-grammys nick minaj grammy awards 2012 02

On Madonna’s influence: “Meeting Madonna changed my life. Working with Madonna changed my life. Rehearsing with Madonna for two weeks changed my life. On how Madonna got her to change her wig:Madonna was the first person in history who was able to make me change my wig. You’re amazing, you’re the queen, and everybody has to bow down.’”

On M.I.A.’s Super Bowl stunt: “My first feeling was disappointment, only because of my respect for Madonna. I’m a cuckoo lady too, but I would never be able to do it off the strength of Madonna. There are fines that go into these things, and I just thought, ‘Oh my God. I hope they don’t penalize Madonna.’ Madonna knows the artist that M.I.A. is and it was her decision to take the risk with all of us. We were kinda all firecrackers and she took that risk. She’s done some crazy things becoming the icon that she is, so I think that’s why she was able to forgive M.I.A. I love M.I.A. and I don’t want to say anything that is the wrong thing, but me personally, I couldn’t see myself doing it, just for the respect for Madonna. I wouldn’t want any backlash to come back on Madonna.”

after reading the above, here area a few synomyms for a certain word that comes to mind here:

apple polish, gush, kiss feet, praise, worship, fawn, bootlick, butter up, curry favor, flatter, grovel, kiss someone's feet, kowtow, lick someone's boots, suck up to, sweet-talk, toady, truckle

the "certain" word is hyphenated and starts with a certain color, and that color is not in the rainbo

There is NOTHING controversial about Nicki. She is a PG-13 Lil' Kim and yes, she is definitely a brown-noser. When you have had to fight for your career, you don't give a shit who you piss off. When you have had it handed to you, there is a degree of "PC" that you HAVE to maintain or you risk losing your foundation. She thinks

"Maybe if I kiss her ass, it will open doors for me".

Its funny that both those bitches have been known to use a fake ass British accent but M.I.A. is ACTUALLY from London.

I love when all these people who claim to be so "hard" crossover and all of a sudden turn into snowflakes. Nicki Minaj, 50 Cent, Ice Cube, Ice-T...Mr. Crenshaw is now on Law & Order. Bunch of phonies.

This is Pop. This is no different than a Rihanna or Britney record.

Musically, I'll listen to Ice-T over Nicki Minaj any day of the week. cool Beside the obvious gangsta style AND pimp style, Ice-T also done some electro tracks earlier in his music career.

They only sell an image. They were all businesspeople really. They were in on the joke that the rest of us didn't really catch on to.

Nah homie, I know where Ice T is from and he wasn't always Detective Fin. Its really ironically funny that he's even playing a cop.

There just comes a point and time where you have to choose between your rep and your fortune. He chose his fortune because he likes that big ass house he lives in. You can't be famous and sell coke on the streets, so since he was already famous, why go back to street life? Every criminal would rather be legit.

Nicki is a completely different story. She's pretty much had a much easier ride. She started off with a cool little style and gimmick and now its gotten ridiculous and played out.

Okay in that sense, Ice T ain't "fake" but Nicki definitely is.

Damn y'all cold. She's not the best female rapper (that title goes to MC Lyte) but she's not at the bottom of the totem pole. She spits decent verses every now and then and she has that sex appeal which counts for a lot in the world of female rappers. You just can't be a girl and rap and not exude some degree of sexiness.

I'M NOT SAYING YOU'RE UGLY. YOU JUST HAVE BAD LUCK WHEN IT COMES TO MIRRORS AND SUNLIGHT!

Unless you do it coercingly like she does... and judging from her latest songs/performances, she's far from what sexiness is so I don't know what you're talking about here. shrug

Yes she is. And the stunt she pulled at the Grammys proved it. Trina doesn't even have enough nerve to go through with something like that.

Nah, Khia is the worst female rapper ever. As for Trina, I like her but she won't be performing at the Superbowl no time soon.

That's because Trina was and has been smart about how to do the rap game. Only thing Nicki got over any of them is the support from Cash Money (which is why I can't understand why Khia and Christina Milian are signing with them).
