Real or Fake: Nicki Minaj

Lately there has been a lot of buzz surrounding the first lady of young money Nicki Minaj. First featured on one of the many remixes to Lil Wayne's lollipop, she has gradually gained a fan base and made a name for herself with the animated performances, exotic looks, and raw flow. I'm not even gonna lie at first I thought she was another overtly sexual female rapper with a huge butt (which many people are saying is fake but idk). However, upon listening to some of her music, she has some crazy lines and her songs definitely have a continuing theme of women empowerment. Her songs have personally grown on me and I find myself attracted to her intonation, accents, and flow (no homo...lol...sidenote: don't you hate when dudes say that? If your comfortable with your sexuality is that really necessary??...ugh that's a whole other post lmao) Nicki Minaj definitely represented for the female MCs or lack thereof at the BET Hip Hop Awards Cipher, which had several people questioning their dislike for her. I think her songs are kinda catchy and honestly that's all you need to be successful in the industry these days. But check out her cipher and some other songs below.
