Nicki is NOT saying she was the first to do it. Listen, she's saying that when she did the animated voices, no one respected her and thought she's crazy, but when males do it, they the king of rap and get praised and so on. it's a double standard. The interviewer is saying that she introduced it, which is definitely not the case.
And it's crazy because Kendrick does the different voices and he's hard...but it's funny no one really paid attention to Nick when she did it. Grant it Busta Bust and all the big homies like EM were doing it...but her point was sooooooo valid. She did her shit and people were like...tha fuck. I knew what she was doing though. Nick is hard lol
Simple as this. Kendrick's music has substance and meaning, Nicki's music is a bunch of random bullshit. Plus Kendrick's just a better artist all around.
GrapeDrank25 ehhhh this is her life... and I like Kendrick. But it's irrational to say that her music is a bunch of random bullshit? this is her life... her struggle...that's what makes a true artist in music...Tht's why I bang Kendrick so hard. His struggle and success speaks to everyone. Just like Nicki.
GrapeDrank25 If you don't like Nicki Minaj then why the fuck you on her videos idiot? Kendrick has 1 hit record. All they ever play is Swimming Pools. When Kendrick Lamar gets 10 songs on the top 100 at the same time then you can talk shit but he doesn't. You been a fan bitch. You on her videos.
I respect her humbleness, her drive, her talent her independence and her straightforward personality. I take my hat off to you Nicki. keep doing you, you earned all that God has left to give to your life. BIG UP!
THIS IS THE FUCKING BEST NICKI MINAJ INTERVIEW OF ALL TIME. We finally got insight into some things she has NEVER talked about before. We have NEVER gotten a two hour interview before. And especially not one to this deep caliber. I have been an Onika Tanya Maraj fan since 2008 and I have seen this woman and this artist blossom before my very eyes. The PinkPrint & this interview proves to the world that the kid is here to stay, and that the KID IS STILL HIPHOP. I love you so much Nicki, I will be a barb/stan forever- you are my queen, you are my idol, and I will cherish this interview and this insight into your story forever. Thank you. *salutes the QUEEN OF HIPHOP*
She is so right, music fan culture is obsessed with these charts, its not even about the music anymore. A chart shouldn't determine how good a song is.
This is officially one of my favorite Nicki interviews. He didn't ask the same generic questions we get with every other interview, she was very involved with every question and the audience, and they talked about a variety of topics.
You know, I realized that how much I have been judgemental towards people like Nicki Minaj based off her public persona. I have noticed that Nicki has a good heart who very grounded and very nurturing towards other people around her.
I never saw it that way, but she's right. Eminem, one of the best, has been doing characters and weird shit for YEAAARRRSSSS but when a girl does it, the hip hop world cannot relate. I think it's because she's girl and men just don't "Understand" things the same way women do. And it takes other men who these hip hop men respect to say "I get it, check it" to take time to LISTEN and be like "Oh, haha, yea okay". And there are women who are like "No, I totally don't get the barbie thing" but those are the same people who think Eminem leads to high school shootings :P I have to say that when I was a child, I was drawn to eminem BECAUSE of his characters. And when I first heard Minaj on that mix tape, I was drawn BECAUSE of the characters + as a woman I related to everything she said. Rapping about "where the fuck is my MAC?" is something easier for a woman to get than these hard guys.
Society is always more tough on women. I noticed this in plenty aspects of life. Even in comedy. They say women comedians aren't funny but Male comedians are.
The best interview of Nicki almost ever. She opened up about a lot of real life experiences and her journey to success, especially speaking on working with my favorite artists like Jay-Z & Kanye. I enjoyed all 99 minutes of the interview. This just made me love her even more.
I appreciate Nicki Minaj a lot more after this interview and after listening to Pinkprint because it really does seem like she wanted to show with this album that she had bars. After listening to Blazing on her first record and enjoying it I felt let down by her albums after that and kept thinking if she can just give me bars and on Pinkprint she does her best to deliver bars. That's all a true hip hop head wants to hear a dope beat and an artist who can masterfully navigate you through the beat and paint you a picture like you have never seen.
she saying she took the bullet of the backlash for using the animated/alterego voices and its okay NOW that ANYone can do it whether female/male. Yet no one gave her props for taking the L but wanna take advantage of that benefit.
10:17, I understand what she's saying. A lot of people diss Nicki cause she has never had a #1 on Billboard Hot 100 Chart or Christina cause she hasn't been doing so well on the charts and sales wise. But that's not what music is about. Its nice to have your song on the charts or to sell well but really, what's most important is the heart, the emotion and the effort an artist puts into a song.
Unexpectedly, Extremely candid interview by Nicki, WOW!! Great interview, the best I've seen in a while. She is legendary... Didn't say a legend btw, her mark in hip-hop is indisputable, she's done a lot for the culture
When she’s talking at 26:49 it reminds me of the reaction Pop Smoke (RIP) had when he heard her verse to his song. I’m sure reactions like that are the reason she goes so damn hard on her features
The so called Queen had to get SZA from TDE to help write one of the better songs on the album Feeling Myself .... Then copied kendrick on her last verse.
FLash Hall you a n d nicki delusional .. she think kendrick on her level .. You obviously dont bother to listen to kendrick Or SZA.. Nicki gotba good rapping voice .. But her lyrics / delivery are trash .
This was one of the best interviews I ever saw on Nicki great job !!! you were very on point with the quwstions and most importantly you listened. I appreciated that hope to see more of this soon love juju
It's crazy I used to hate on her too, but when I heard "I feel free" everything changed & at the time I was crazy for liking her. Like if you were a guy into Nicki Minaj you were outed to be gay. I didn't care though because she was so strong going under all that scrutiny it made me not give a fuck what people think about her too, as long as I knew what it was they didn't matter.
Hey I'm not a barb but Im just a regular fan. Gosh her relationship with her fanbase is so fucking cool and I'm so happy to rap her Monster verse omg I feel like I'm a part of a family!
Ryan Yap Cheng Nam you are a Barb. Her fans are called Barbs. Well actually you're a Ken Barb cuz you're a guy. There's nothing wrong with that, your masculinity is not at risk so chill out.
I LOVE HER CONFIDENCE-PERIOD!!!! She shows that even if no one believed in her-SHE DID and that is why she is the greatest. I love her realness and self awareness to her skills and to this male dominated game.
I love how with the album's interviews, she's putting people on the spot. She's confronting the people who only say she's a good rapper if she IS on a song with Kanye, Jay, or somebody else. With another interview, she said "you're not gay if you think Nicki Minaj is an ill rapper. Any secure ass man in themselves will give a female props for what she does."
The interviewer looked sooooo annoyed when the crowd would sing her songs lol..smh that's the point tho. She loves it..the fans love it..it makes for an even better interview. This interview tho was the best interview I've ever seen from her. She let her fans in on soooo much. Ugh I love her !!
the best rapper of our generation. her work ethic, skills, talent, personality, everything. congrats on motherhood nick, we will hold you down foreva 🦄🌈🎀
How can she Hate Dear old Nicki & I'm the best 😭😭 I love those Songs!! I Love when the Barbz Rap along to the lyrics. I'm so Proud to Stan the Queen 👑🦄 I just Love her 💕💕
15:35 she kept it real. Back then, people didn’t take her seriously. The reason people liked her on this song was because she sang alongside Jay and Ye. That’s was a defining moment for many people. They found out, for the first time, that Nicki was the real deal. They found out that she could hold her own along the greatest. And even possibly be better than them on a featuring.
Sounds like Lil Wayne is a little controlling. He took her off a song/label because she went to go work and do a show that was putting money in her pockets. Happy it all worked out for her🙌👏 seams like she's been through a lot.
to be honest I never really liked nicki minaj but after seeing some of her interviews, the more recent ones in particular, I have a new found respect for her
nicki is saying what i’m thinking . i don’t pay attention to the top charts or anything like i pay attention to the song and the msg and if i love it you gonna know i love it . just like her personality
I like this interview she is honest funny and crazy at the sametime and people judge her but dk her at all you can't call someone a HOE when you dk nothing about they feel everything is about money and fame at the end of the day they are all human being just like us not fucking animals

The barbz rapping gave me goosebumps I can't even imagine how it makes Nicki feel, but mama deserves it *ALL* and more
Period period
As a fan, that's the fucking best interview ever.
Yass Boo !
I love u
That was Nicki a capella concert + Nicki's personal life + experiences + Making of.
Fr
Couldn't agree more. I could just watch it over and over again.
Nicki's best interview hands down. She was open, honest, raw, blunt & most importantly-real. The audience was life tho.
Nicki is NOT saying she was the first to do it. Listen, she's saying that when she did the animated voices, no one respected her and thought she's crazy, but when males do it, they the king of rap and get praised and so on. it's a double standard. The interviewer is saying that she introduced it, which is definitely not the case.
Maybe some people just don't like her as a rapper that's probably why
And it's crazy because Kendrick does the different voices and he's hard...but it's funny no one really paid attention to Nick when she did it. Grant it Busta Bust and all the big homies like EM were doing it...but her point was sooooooo valid. She did her shit and people were like...tha fuck. I knew what she was doing though.

guys the monster rap is at 14:14 if yall wanted to know :)
Love u
Thxx
I like that Nicki has a fan base that actually sings and raps with her even if she is just doing a simple interview!
IM STILL coming back after all these years to see her interviews and stuff.
Same here!
Same here
I can relate
I’m still here
I respect her humbleness, her drive, her talent her independence and her straightforward personality. I take my hat off to you Nicki. keep doing you, you earned all that God has left to give to your life. BIG UP!
I love Nicki alter ego
THIS IS THE FUCKING BEST NICKI MINAJ INTERVIEW OF ALL TIME. We finally got insight into some things she has NEVER talked about before. We have NEVER gotten a two hour interview before.

Till this day 💯💯

i love how she be checkin the hosts on all her interviews...she really does keep it real
Somebody said in the audience "Not me" when Nicki Minaj said I took one bite of the turkey burger and couldn't eat for the rest of the night :) LOL
You know, I realized that how much I have been judgemental towards people like Nicki Minaj based off her public persona. I have noticed that Nicki has a good heart who very grounded and very nurturing towards other people around her.
+The Conrad Very well put wish a lot more people would do their research
heyyyyy1111 Yeah I just wish she didn't have that Jezebel spirit though.
+The Conrad no different from the male rappers
heyyyyy1111 true
heyyyyy1111 UT
beyonce needs to do an interview like this. we dont need no documentary
Nicki is so real ! 😭 she deserves a Grammy already 💞
*3 Grammy's
FUCK THE GRAMMYS .
Nicki dragging Elliot over her Monster verse gives me so much liiiiiife.
I never saw it that way, but she's right. Eminem, one of the best, has been doing characters and weird shit for YEAAARRRSSSS but when a girl does it, the hip hop world cannot relate.

Shut the fuck up !
your 100 percent right
Society is always more tough on women. I noticed this in plenty aspects of life. Even in comedy. They say women comedians aren't funny but Male comedians are.
I love this woman. Her work ethic. And dedication. And how she took control of her career.
The best interview of Nicki almost ever. She opened up about a lot of real life experiences and her journey to success, especially speaking on working with my favorite artists like Jay-Z & Kanye. I enjoyed all 99 minutes of the interview. This just made me love her even more.

I f-ing LOVE HER!!!
she saying she took the bullet of the backlash for using the animated/alterego voices and its okay NOW that ANYone can do it whether female/male. Yet no one gave her props for taking the L but wanna take advantage of that benefit.
Years will go by and this interview will still be the best interview she has ever done👏🏾🙌🏾
10:17, I understand what she's saying. A lot of people diss Nicki cause she has never had a #1 on Billboard Hot 100 Chart or Christina cause she hasn't been doing so well on the charts and sales wise. But that's not what music is about.

She has two Hot 100 number 1s now. 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
One of the best Nicki interviews I'm so glad he asked her about Monster and Romans Revenge, no one ever does!
Unexpectedly, Extremely candid interview by Nicki, WOW!! Great interview, the best I've seen in a while. She is legendary... Didn't say a legend btw, her mark in hip-hop is indisputable, she's done a lot for the culture
I love her so much... its crazy,... I still watch this interview just to make my heart happier and its 2019, on life, I'll never stop
SAME!
I have so much respect for this girl
When she’s talking at 26:49 it reminds me of the reaction Pop Smoke (RIP) had when he heard her verse to his song. I’m sure reactions like that are the reason she goes so damn hard on her features
Ive probably watchhed this interview over 10 times do your thing Nic
Queen
The so called Queen had to get SZA from TDE to help write one of the better songs on the album Feeling Myself .... Then copied kendrick on her last verse.
Delete his ignorant comment please
FLash Hall you a n d nicki delusional .. she think kendrick on her level .. You obviously dont bother to listen to kendrick Or SZA.. Nicki gotba good rapping voice .. But her lyrics / delivery are trash .
Jeffery Freeman ummm you got some proof? i'd love some proof. otherwise you're just talking mad bullshit. bye.
Jeffery Freeman First of all, who is sza? And Second, Kendrick is trash so fuck outta here.
Honestly hearing her talk about her past and Safari and how they were together really breaks my heart that they are not together anymore.
This was one of the best interviews I ever saw on Nicki great job !!! you were very on point with the quwstions and most importantly you listened. I appreciated that hope to see more of this soon love juju
It's crazy I used to hate on her too, but when I heard "I feel free" everything changed & at the time I was crazy for liking her. Like if you were a guy into Nicki Minaj you were outed to be gay. I didn't care though because she was so strong going under all that scrutiny it made me not give a fuck what people think about her too, as long as I knew what it was they didn't matter.
"Freedom" is the best!!! but yes she is a really talented writer.
+motjon he's not talking about freedom, he's talking about a song on her mixtape called I Feel Free
Nicki is so beautiful and really respects her fans i love herrr
2007-2009: Harajuku Barbie x Nicki Lewinsky
2010-2011: Harajuku Barbie x Roman
2012: Roman
2013: Pre-Onika
2014: Onika
Agreed? :D
Princess Jauregui-Hansen every year after Queen of Rap .
Hey I'm not a barb but Im just a regular fan.
Gosh her relationship with her fanbase is so fucking cool and I'm so happy to rap her Monster verse omg I feel like I'm a part of a family!
truth
That's so corny. Just because you're a fan, it does not mean you have to be a "barb." Are you really that insecure
Idk what did I said that makes you so uncomfy.
Ryan Yap Cheng Nam you are a Barb. Her fans are called Barbs. Well actually you're a Ken Barb cuz you're a guy. There's nothing wrong with that, your masculinity is not at risk so chill out.
dang people are really offended by this comment
My favorite interview
Raymonte what are u doing hereeee😂😂😂
She is just a beautiful soul and will always be the Queen. I just love her so much 💖👑
one of my favorite nicki interviews, the interviewer felt so genuine.
A true Boss,TPP is a hip hop classic not only for female rappers but for males. Wasn't always a Nicki Minaj fan but she has definitely made a 360.
This is the best representation of a female in hip hop
I LOVE HER CONFIDENCE-PERIOD!!!! She shows that even if no one believed in her-SHE DID and that is why she is the greatest. I love her realness and self awareness to her skills and to this male dominated game.
14:20 seriously best Nicki interview everrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr!
She fucking delivers. She's a perfect entertainer. Authentic as fuck too
do you still feel like that ?
I love how with the album's interviews, she's putting people on the spot. She's confronting the people who only say she's a good rapper if she IS on a song with Kanye, Jay, or somebody else. With another interview, she said "you're not gay if you think Nicki Minaj is an ill rapper. Any secure ass man in themselves will give a female props for what she does."
Still her best interview till this day 💯💯

Damn nicki beautiful
Am I the only one who thinks that her Verse on “Hello Good Morning” should’ve been talked about 🤔
15:53 WHY ARE U ON UR PHONE NICKI MINAJ IS RIGHT INFRONT OF YOU
EXACTLY WHAT I WAS THINKING!!
Jennifer Mejias So true i was like how dare youu
I'm speechlessly inspired.
Nicki created her own alter ego and when people didn’t understand it she said, “Argue with the wall because Roman will eat you up.”
nicki minaj should have her own cartoon show
THE QUEEN OF HIP-HOP 👑💗
LOVE THIS INTERVIEW!
Queen of Rap. 👑
I love her to much man
9:44 and often they dont see/hear the other part of her, like Grand Piano, All Things Go

proven shit is that Nicki may be the smartest woman in the buisness...Damn hate her or nah, when she opens her mouth, its like AA
I like this interview she is honest funny and crazy at the sametime and people judge her but dk her at all you can't call someone a HOE when you dk nothing about they feel everything is about money and fame at the end of the day they are all human being just like us not fucking animals
