During her strong promo run, Nicki Minaj gave her most lengthy and thorough interview to Power 105.1’s The Breakfast Club. Here’s a synopsis of what went down:

She talks about everything from the criticism of people saying she’s pop, how video directors tell her she should take it back to the essence, how she feels about New York not fully embracing her as one of their own, how she deals with criticism from other female rappers and bloggers, her weird relationship with Drake and Lil Wayne, talks about the ring she’s wearing on her ring finger and what is her relationship with Scaff Beezy and much, much, more!!!

    How is she meant to be taken serious when she dresses up in silly costumes like that, She’s just doing what Madonna Lady Gaga etc all do. It’s like they spend more time on her gimmick look and style rather than her music.

  2. How Wonderful... says:

    ^ Farilla. I agree 100%

  3. ZoomZoomDad-Otis says:

    I thought that was Tony Yayo sitting next to her. Nicki got that Joker from the ‘Dark Knight’ going on.

  4. The Truth says:

    She is taking seriously, however, not by the hip-hop community. At the end of the day Nicki will not change her way to appeal to the hip-hop community because this is not where she is getting her $$$ from. Nicki you can’t have it both ways, if you found a medium great, but not the way you are appearing these days. Congrats on your success, but your HOOD PASS has been revoked! Not that there is anything really wrong with that, just dont complain!

  8. Chris says:

    Of course no one is gonna take her seriously she dresses up like a Lunatic and screams in weird voices on every track!
    Anyway, EVERY1 Watch The
    OFFICIAL LOUD REMIX Music Video!

  9. livitup says:

    ok honestly, i’m not personally a fan of her music. It’s bearly tolerable being a girl from the generation she speaks of as “getting it” and whether we actually do get it or not is irrelevant. reguardless, yesterday i was hatin on her new album and didn’t really feel like it embodied her talent as an artist that got her on the mark. yet, after listening to this interview i gotta give the girl some props for being like “if you don’t dig it go find another hole to jump into.”shes gonna do her and have fun and i give the girl respect for not trying to follow everyone elses trends and set her own pace- nikki speed. good interview to see another side of nicki clearly thinking on her own and being upfront about all the bull shit.

  10. Bane says:

    Honest question, is she bald headed under all those wigs she wears?

  11. CJF says:

    SB jus flosses off nicki’s money, step your game up Scaff!

  12. TROLLING says:

    LMAO SHE SAID SHE WANTS PEOPLE TO DISSECT HER LYRICS

  13. midwestg says:

    cosign just me ^

  14. adrian says:

    the hip hop community doesn’t like ANYTHING if they didn’t hear it when they were 15. that’s why nobody pays attention to us. fareal if hiphop was politics, the rap community would be the damn tea party. super conservative. i try to stay as open as possible because rap fans age in dog years when it comes to critiquing music

  15. mac DIESAL's Assistant ( mac DIESAL BACK !! ) says:

    @adriana ^^^^^^^^I DONT CARE HOW UNCONSERVATIVE YOU ARE

    ANYONE WHO DOESNT NEED A HEARING AID TO HEAR KNOWS THAT NICKI MINAJ’S MUSIC IS UTTER TRASH

    HA!!

    DONT HATE ON OUR OPINION!!!

  16. the brain trust says:

    @ Adrian

    It’s one thing to have an open-mind. It’s another thing ENTIRELY to condone talentless hacks like Nicki Minaj.

    This is not simply ‘my opinion’, but is something everyone can look at objectively AND agree with.

    Nicki Minaj’s music is generic/ watered down/ pre-packaged by major labels and as a result, it’s a carbon-copy of what’s on the radio. Her music lacks even an ounce of creativity and has no redeeming value or noteworthy message.

    She employs nonsensical rhyme schemes, cannot sing and uses alter egos to mask the blandness of her actual personality.

    People who describe her music as ‘fun’, need to realise that making ‘fun music’ (whatever that is) does not require any talent whatsoever.

    This is why she has been banished from the ‘Hip Hop Garden of Eden’ lol.

  17. ItsTheTruth says:

    Yo MK-Ultra really fucked dis girl up right here. Watch in a couple/few years she gonna have a breakdown like Britney Spears.

  18. rednasil says:

    Naahh.. You may not like her album or like her, but talentless?? Come on now.
    Nicki can rap, stop saying shit just to say shit.

    Like Arianna said “the hip hop community doesn’t like ANYTHING if they didn’t hear it when they were 15.”

    I’m sure half of you complaining that Nicki is pop or not hood enough wouldn’t go buy her album if she dropped something on the level of lets say “Illmatic”. So stop complaining. She’s going for the money, you would’ve done the same.
