“Ask Lil Wayne who the 5 star bitch is.”, Nicki raps at the end of Yo Gotti’s “5 Star Chick” video where she’s featured with Trina. Of course, I’ll assume she was referring to herself and if Lil Wayne gives Nicki the stamp of approval the whole world should right? The first time that I heard of Nicki Minaj was around November of 2008. A friend of mine was adamant that she was the baddest chick out and that I should give her a listen. I was initially disgusted. I wasn’t disgusted by the bars that she spat though. I was disgusted solely by her persona during interviews. One interview in particular allowed me to quickly analyze her as an attention seeking over sexualized joke. So I guess you can say I was a bit bias from the start.
