All Publicity Is Good Publicity: The Nicki Minaj Edition

Image
So Nicki Minaj spoke with Funkmaster Flex via telephone yesterday regarding the comments that lead to her not performing at Summer Jam this past Sunday. Before playing the audio last night for his Hot 97 show Flex stated that Nicki requested the audio be aired unedited in its entirety. I guess Nicki wanted her voice to be heard beyond her fingertips and Lil Wayne's instructions... I am of the opinion that Nicki Nicki Nicki made some valid points in her call while it was obvious Flex tried to play her as Lil Wayne's puppet. Wayne IS her boss and there should be some level of respect as well as leadership on his part. Antics aside whether we want to believe it or not Lil Wayne is the CEO of Young Money Entertainment. Listen to the full audio below. Source Very interesting, I am still on the fence as to whether or not she should have performed...either way Nicki is having the best week ever!

Nas And Lauryn Hill To The Rescue

Everybody and their Mama (except Nicki Minaj) performed last night at the Hot 97 2012 Summer Jam concert at MetLife Stadium in New York. Nicki Nicki Nicki was suppose to headline with a slew of surprise guests, that everybody already knew about, but was quickly snatched by her weave and told not to perform by the Young Money CEO/HNIC/Bawse/President Lil Wayne. The reason Lil Wayne told Nicki to hold her mule was because Hot 97 DJ Peter Rosenberg made some not so nice, but very common, remarks over on the pre-show stage about Nicki's music that didn't sit well with her camp . Here's what he said to say that prompted Nicki to disappoint her fans instead of responding: "I know there are some chicks here waiting to sing 'Starships' later, I'm not talking to y'all right now, f-ck that bullshit.Bullshit! I'm here to talk about real Hip-Hop shit." Yep...that right there got shit shut down. I wonder what would have happened if he flat out said he...

Song Of The Day!!

One more day... I can't believe I actually like this song, well actually only the chorus but it's still something to be astonished by. Enjoy your day loves!!!!

Video: "Starships" by Nicki Minaj

I guess this is cute and satisfactory for Nicki's fanbase...   I bet this video cost an ass and a leg to make but it's clear money can't buy taste.

WTF! Picture of The Day

Image
WTF! look of the day would have sufficed as well...where does she find these pieces? Let alone, the inspiration to wear them on and be seen? Is this what they're loving in London?   Nicki needs some new batteries....she's always on!

WTH Is Going On Over at Cash Money Records?

Image
I know Nicki Minaj is a cash cow, no pun intended, for YMCMB but someone needs to set her aside and have a heart to heart about her fashion choices. And if time permits maybe touch on the subject of her make up and hair... In all actuality I will say that this is one of her better outfits but because of prior convictions she is being prosecuted for this look as well. This look for Nicki's album release party fairs better than her other get ups but the FUPA and odd shaped thighs along with the dated wigs and poorly done make up age her and make her look tacky. Nicki is on another level now, whether or not we want to believe it or give her props, there is no longer a need for the just jumped off the porch wardrobe budget... please tell me Bobby Valentino isn't signed to Cash Money now too? Fred Durst is fitting right in...how is Baby signing all these artists?

Is Nicki Minaj The Greatest Actress Ever?!!

Image
Ever since I stumbled on an episode of 106 & Park I have been kinda sorta tuning in everyday (DVR'ing) ...welllll yesterday Nicki Minaj was in the 106 studios promoting Pink Friday Roman Reloaded in RARE form. I mean the voice was high and Nicki's valley hood chic persona was on 100...it was quite comical to see those around her...Cam'ron, Baby/Birdman, 2 Chainz, Rocsi and Terrance...keep a straight face. I actually watched with 2 others and we were either laughing or staring at one another with the stuck face. check her out in living color...             I think Nicki was a little extra because Lil Kim was on not too long ago and received lots of love...mmmm hmmm. Anywho, Nicki also made a stop over at Power 105.9's The Breakfast Club for an encore performance... Do you agree with the NY Times writer Jon Carmanica's statement that Nicki is one of the most influential female rap artists of all time... of ALL ti...

Nicki Minaj's Performance On American Idol

Image
Last night Nicki Minaj continued her transformation into a pop star on Fox's American Idol where she performed her hit song Starships . Love the judges' facial expressions last night!!! They shouldn't be able to kick anyone off the show after this performance...Nicki contradicts everything this show stands for. source: yardieiz4life

Nicki Minaj Does It Again...

Image
While you (and me) were somewhere sitting back critiquing the shit out of Nicki Minaj's ass and iffy talent she was signing a million dollar endorsement deal with Pepsi...yes Pepsi!! According to Derek Jackson, the Glu agency chief who brokered the agreement, Minaj will become the face of a new Pepsi beverage nearing its debut. He said the pact, which includes a commercial filmed in South America last month (pixely footage has already leaked on YouTube), is a multimillion-dollar deal. “You’ll see the commercial probably in the next two months,” Jackson told me before Lil Wayne’s performance at South By Southwest. “That’ll be a segue into a new beverage Pepsi has, called ‘Pop,’ and she’ll be the face of the brand … it’s going to be explosive.” The pact was one of two major partnerships between Pepsi and Cash Money / Young Money artists garnering significant attention in Austin. Lil Wayne debuted his DEWeezy campaign with Pepsi’s Mountain Dew , also negotiated by Jackson, at...

Take it how you want to... In other news, these photographs are of Nicki Minaj on set for her Starships video in Hawaii...must be nice .

Nicki Minaj Covers Allure Magazine

Image
Am I going to have to give Nicki Minaj her props? Nicki in all her shit and gimmicks has managed to shock me again by snagging the cover of the April issue of Allure magazine...this is getting bigger people. It doesn't stop with this chick...I may not like it, but I may have to respect it... I actually like these photos...smh.

WTF Picture of The Day

Image
Let's just start something new this here Monday, it's so many pictures that I see that deserve no comment but dayum sure deserve explanations and these two pics fit the bill. No comment...no remarks...I just need an explanation? Jesse likes Wayne but not Obama. Between Nicki and Drake I don't know who kisses Wayne's ass more...Drake doesn't look too impressed by this public display of affection.

Nicki Minaj Opens the 61st Annual NBA All Star Game

Image
When did Nicki Minaj become a pop SINGER? Even though this stiff ass performance sucked balls, this was a big deal for Nicki to open the 61st annual NBA All Star Game in Orlando last night. This isn't the BET Awards who needs to fill a spot with a female MC, this is the ALL STAR game and they could have gotten anyone else to perform but they chose her. Like her or not, Nicki Minaj is winning. The Vogue magazine spread along with this appearance/performance have solidified Nicki's spot in the rap/pop game...I pity ear our ears. video source: jose3030

Nicki Minaj Blues

Image
Nicki shot this photo dipped in what I believe to be head to toe blue make up for Vogue's March issue and although Nicki didn't grace the cover, this is still huge for someone in her shoes to have landed on the pages of this prestigious fashion magazine. Check out what Nicki had to say...and what was said about her. Hip-hop star Nicki Minaj has exploded onto the music scene with kaleidoscopic costume changes and hard-hitting lyrics, but there's a surprising side behind the public persona. You would not expect Nicki Minaj and Valentino Garavani to have much to say to each other, but front row at the Oscar de la Renta spring 2012 runway show, they exchange greetings worthy of a pair of dowager duchesses. “You look sensational!” “You look fabulous yourself!” Minaj, 29, is hardly your typical Oscar client. The performer is famous for her Harajuku Barbie appearance, a mélange of tiny skirts, bustiers, and leggings in a riot of cartoon hues, invariably topped with a towe...

The Adventures of Nicki Minaj and Her Wig

Image
Yes, Nicki is still in New York promoting her hind parts off  as she has been all week for AIDS awareness and yes she still has that shady blonde wig with her...I must say I've never seen a wig with a widows peak, very fancy. Anywho, on this stop was a the MAC Cosmetics Glam party which Nicki and the wig hosted. Take a looksee... I think I like the suit a lot...minus the buttons on the dress in addition to some well done tailoring I could love the outfit.

Yay or Nay: Nicki Minaj

Image
I need for you to have an open mind with this look and not to deduct points for the angry wig that is obviously trying to eat her forehead. Now this dress is cute, not quite the look for stopping by Good Morning America to talk about HIV/AIDS awareness but cute, and would be even cuter paired with different shoe but the dress isn't my issue.It's moreso that living wig on her head that must have been strategically put on by Stevie Wonder I have an issue with. Her people need to do better...hell even I can do better!
