There's nobody in the forefront to challange that and show how much of a cartoon character she is,,,so, for the sake of folks desparately WANTING a female MC, Nicki will do for the time being. But personally, no, she's eyecandy but what she says is straight up from a Charlie Brown cartoon. She isnt filling a void, she is fitting a stereotype. why do female rappers have to act and dress like sluts to get anywhere? The chick sucks at rapping and isnt a good influence to the people who look up 2 her (young girls). You're so glam, every time I see you I wanna slam! | |

Is she all that? Let's examine:
She does have a unique delivery VISUALLY. Her crazy facial expressions make her different from any of her other female counterparts. Lyrically, she's a total slouch. Aside from a clever line here or there, she's obviously imitating Lil' Wayne's rap style and her subject matter is scattered most of the times and lacking focus. Her vocal delivery is similar to L'Trimm with subject matter like Lil Kim. While in some ways she could be considered "different" - different does not mean good. I think its safe to say that talent-wise, as an MC, she is nothing significant. Now, let's look at her pop appeal: She's pretty. I know beauty is very subjective but I don't think anyone being honest could make a case for her not being an attractive woman, even if like her idol barbie, she's mostly plastic. She's openly bisexual with a seeming lean towards women. This makes her Hollywood/pop/industry friendly. For the last decade or so, the industry has embraced bisexual women with open arms and even promote it as often as possible when it can be used to sell merchandise. She wears outrageous outfits and hair. Often times, this is mistaken by many for being "cutting-edged" but as long as you can fool some of the people some of the time, that's enough for image creation in the biz. Most of her image is recycled and copied. The same can be said for most pop stars these days. Its not like we get a Grace Jones very often, but we get a Nicki Minaj every few years. She's sexually aggresive. Sex sells. While not quite as potty-mouthed as Lil Kim, she's pretty forward. She seems sleazy. This locks her in. The industry loves women who can seem to be sleazy at will. The seeming willingness to be with anyone at any time gives her a "universal appeal" because regular Joes and Janes think they could have a shot if they ever met her. She's non-threatening. Seen her interviews? Not exactly the brightest bulb. There's nothing an averge person likes more than a less-than-average woman. (Its a shame to say that but we know its true...egos, intimidation...you know the rest) She is NOT mentally or intellectually intimidating. She has a porn star name. When I first saw her pic and read her name, I thought she was a porn star. How could you not? I had no idea I'd see her in a video with Mariah that didn't have "sextape" in the title somewhere. So, in conclusion, is she all that? The answer is no and yes. As a performer and an MC, she's nothing special. As a trendy pop icon, she has potential. She's a "personality" like Kim Kardashian, Paris Hilton, The Octomom, etc. | |

They just choose to do that in order to grab more of the wrong kind of attention from men. 
The best female MCs however (Queen Latifah, Monie Love, Left Eye, MC Lyte, etc), were the antitheses of these latest types of "whore" rappers, and they were successful as well. But things changed in the 90s.  "You put water into a cup, it becomes the cup...Now water can flow or it can crash. Be water, my friend." - Bruce Lee

I don't think a critical mass will find her intriguing enough that she'll stick around for long (and maybe part of that is wishful thinking). But if it does happen, I think you perfectly sum up why it would have. Ὅσον ζῇς φαίνου

Lil Kim actually had a single out maybe just over a year ago with Charlie Wilson and TPain. It died pretty quick. I don't even think there was an album release. It was called "Download" on a mixtape I believe...not sure if it was really anyone's song, either Tpains or Kim's..but it was not that good. Straight Jacket Funk Affair
Album plays and love for vinyl records. | |

There's no much concurrence going on. And her squeaky voice makes my ears bleed. I would her make my d*ck ejaculate though Everybody is somebody, but nobody wants to be themselves. | |
