Nicki Minaj isn't just creative in the studio — she puts it down on the video set as well.
With her first album, we saw the Harajuku Barbie and Amber Rose get their "Thelma & Louise" on in the "Massive Attack" clip, and then saw Nicki the Ninja fight for her man in the "Your Love" video. In the clip for "Fly," the reigning rap queen sang alongside Rihanna in a post-apocalyptic wasteland, and then, in the bright and cheery "Super Bass" vid, she proved that even the baddest Barbs just want to have fun. Makes you wonder what Nicki has in store visually for her sophomore LP, Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded, in stores Tuesday (April 3).
We've already gotten the Hype Williams-directed "Stupid Hoe," but there is no telling what Nicki will do next — though we'll soon find out. "You're getting two videos: You're getting the 'Starships' video, which I'm hoping it will hurry up and happen," she told MTV News on Thursday after her "American Idol" performance in L.A.
Fans have already gotten a small taste of the 'Starships' vid thanks to the set pics that leaked earlier this month of Nicki in a pink bikini, but the Young Money hitmaker still has to do color corrections before the visual is complete.
Minaj plans to first release the video for her 2 Chainz-assisted single "Beez in the Trap." "I actually finished the editing for 'Beez in the Trap,' which features 2 Chainz, and ... I love that video," Nicki gushed.
She guessed the 'Beez in the Trap' clip would come out Tuesday in conjunction with her album release, but couldn't say with 100 percent confidence. Regardless of its drop date though, Nicki promised quality. "It's real sexy," she boasted. "There's a clean version and an explicit version, and it's goin' to be poppin'."
To celebrate Tuesday's (April 3) release of Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded, we will be examining the "Evolution of Nicki Minaj" throughout the week. Check MTV News every day to see how the Southside Jamaica, Queens, Barbie went from a promising mixtape standout to rap's reigning queen.
