Female rapper from Young Money Entertainment, Lil Wayne's label (her mentor). She firstly rose to fame by releasing her mixtapes series throughout 2007 and 2009; then, in 2010, she became one of the most skillful and successful femcees of all-time, when she released 'Pink Friday', which scored her a number one spot on the Billboard 200 chart. Her fame rises more and more when she was enlisted through long series of collaborations with rappers and singers, and with it she showed her most colorful image on the second record 'Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded' when she incarnated her most famous alter ego, Roman Zolanski, an angrier and dangerous version of her 2009-2010 one, Harajuku Barbie or simply Barbie. In 2013, she had a hiatus in the music industry, when she decided to surprsingly start her own branch of activities: a perfume, own clothing line, a drink, her movie role and her Beats by Dre pink pill endorsing collection. She appeared in at least 20 collaborations, that year, making her the most featured femcee ever (besides Stacey Ray, who before had 18 in 2012): that wasn't when she delivered a more sexy image of herself with more blonde and black wigs than the colorful ones.

The Queen of Rap she’s the first female artist to ever get over 100 entries on the billboard hot 100. She paved the way for many female rappers and not only just female rappers ARTIST IN GENERAL. She fought for Streaming rights so that a certain amount of streams can be counted as a sale(She was not the first to fight for streams but she was the first to win). She was also the the very first MAINSTREAM female rapper. She made it possible for females rappers to have commercial songs be on vogue magazine etc. she is also the very Artist to ever have a number one song in every genre of music. Nicki Minaj was so successful people started to hate her for no reason. People told lies about her. They tried so hard to remove from fame but they had no chance.
Barb : Nicki Minaj is just as legendary as Michael Jackson....Y’all ain’t ready for that conversation though.
Hater: she’s not....

A human being that is always judged the wrong way. This girl may have huge ass and boobs but also a heart , she donates money to charity on a regular basis, loves and encourages her fans to continue school and become the best they can be. She's also an amazing artist who writes her own lyrics and has a flow like no other. Not to mention she's an incredibly attractive and beautiful person inside and out.
