Nicki Minaj has been in the pop music scene since 2009. Her breakthrough was Kanye West's "Monster" in 2010. Ever since then, she's been the go to "rap feature" on every pop star's track. This has resulted in a shitload of songs she's contributed to.
And she never phones it in. All of her features blend seamlessly into the style/feeling of the track and elevate it into something better.
Here's a sample of her best verses. The links go straight to her part:
- Kanye West - Monster
- Robin Thicke - Shaking It For Daddy
- Justin Bieber - Beauty And A Beat
- Bebe Rexha - No Broken Hearts
- Nicki Minaj - Itty Bitty Piggy
- Ciara - I'm Out
- Lil Wayne - Can't Stop Won't Stop
- Drake - Make Me Proud
- Madonna - Bitch I'm Madonna
- B.o.B - Out Of My Mind
- Trey Songz - Bottoms Up
- Jay Sean - 2012 (It Ain't The End)
- Nelly - Get Like Me
- Sean Kingston - Letting Go (Dutty Love)
- Madonna - Give Me All Your Luvin'
- Chris Brown - Love More
- David Guetta - Hey Mama
- Meek Mill - All Eyes On You
- Ariana Grande - Side To Side
- Jessie J - Bang Bang
- Nicki Minaj - Trini Dem Girls
- Lil Wayne - Sweet Dreams Remix
- Nicki Minaj - Stupid Hoe
And this is just a fraction of the 50+ songs she's featured in, not including even her own tracks.
So is Nicki Minaj the most talented artist of the 2000's? Is there any other single artist that's affected the music scene more than her?
Love her.
Absolutely without question.
"Stupid Hoe" should have won a Grammy. It is easily the greatest and most influential song of the 21st century. This is why I can't take the Grammys seriously anymore. They frequently honor garbage and not amazing pieces of art. ��
