Nicki Minaj dropped her brand new album “Queen” on Friday.
The Trinidadian rapper unveiled the 19-track record on Apple’s Beats 1 radio where she gave a song-by-song analysis of her new work.
One such track, “Barbie Dreams,” has been singled out for featuring criticism of rappers including the likes of Drake, DJ Khaled and her ex Meek Mill however Nicki said she was just joking around.
Queen follows singles “Barbie Tingz” and “Chun-Li” which were both released in April. Its release was originally slated for 15 June before being pushed to 17 August due to clearance issues over a sample of a Tracy Chapman song.
In the final single, “Inspirations Outro,” Minaj shares the artistes who inspired the project which included a slew of Dancehall and Soca entertainers.
” Capleton, Beenie Man, Mavado / uh oh Sizzla Kalonji, Kartel, Buju, go so/ Supercat, all over his Ferragamo / I know Destra Garcia, Machel Montano / Jah know
Ninja Man, Lady Saw, Spice, Tanya, Patra/ DJ pull up, Bounty Killer, uh-huh
Bunji Garlin, Fay-Ann Lyons,” Nicki raps. ” Anything we wear, girl go on and tryin’ (okay) / Bless up, Bob Marley, yes, king lion / Marchin’ with Lauryn Hill to Zion / Caribbean tings what I am / Me and Fox gettin’ paper like what ink dry on.”
Queen is Nicki Minaj’s first record since 2014 release The Pinkprint.
