Let's talk about something that completely surprised me - Nicki Minaj and her debut album "Pink Friday." I am loving it and her! Totally not my style either. I'll listen to pop stations, and rap comes on occasionally, but it's definitely not my genre of choice. This album is literally THE first rap album I have ever bought.Nicki is so strange, yet so entertaining. She's constantly making faces and singing/rapping in crazy voices, but it totally works for her. I listen to Pink Friday on repeat over and over and it pumps me up every time. I highly recommend it.
Here's a little taste of "Check it Out" featuring will.i.am of the Black Eyed Peas:
Does anyone else have this album? Or an opinion about Nicki Minaj?

There is nothing better than finding a new artist that you love! I am crazy about the latest Katy Perry cd at the moment. Good to crank when I have to clean. Helps to sing and dance around a bit while doing boring tasks... my dogs look at me like I'm nuts and then they wag their tails. xo
ReplyDeleteI just bought this CD for Paul. He says she is a really good rapper. I might have heard a song not knowing who it was.
ReplyDeleteI love LOVE Nicki!! She totally kills it on Kanye's "Monster." Try to catch her MTV special "My Time Now." You will love her even more! And you will learn about her "Roman". She's awesome!
ReplyDeletei LOVE check it out but haven't checked out her album...thanks for the recc!
ReplyDeleteps: hope you have a FABULOUS holiday! xoxo
I think I've heard one song that's by her, but I don't know any of her other stuff. I'll have to listen to some of the sound clips on iTunes.
