Not a fan. Some conflicting images in this photo. but i will say that “she” (i put she in quotes because not since the 80s (and before) has anyone totally crafted their own image a la Madonna, Boy George, David Bowe, George Clinton, Afrika Bambaataa, Grandmaster Flash & the Furious Five etc, etc) is trying to bring the “unique” visually to the rap game. The image is crafted. She wasn’t rocking this look prior to becoming a SIGNED artisted. When you are an artist you are and were always this way. cause for real the wigs have always existed, lol.
@ Comment number 3…..majority of the rappers you just called she already surpassed a longggg time ago…for example..Khia who the hell is that?? One hit wonder yo….so i dont know what you talking about she is wack.
Hmm, I don’t really know what to think about the cover, but I have to give Nicki her props. I would imagine being an artist is hard enough, particularly on females in hip-hop. She’s very smart, and has a cool personality.. I just wish she would drop, or tone down the ” barbie ” movement. As far as the kind of fans she attracts, she knows her audience, and probably will continue to cater to them, hopefully things work out for her. :/
I don’t mind the Barbie thing. I doubt she’s that commited to it, anyway. She was clearly signed by Lil Wayne to be a female Lil Wayne and this Barbie moniker is about as serious as all the others rappers give themselves. It’s only because she’s a woman that people fixate on it. No male rapper who has compared himself to a god or stud has ever been taken to task over it.
SMH @ all these HATERS!!!! Nicki as always you are doing YOUR OWN THING!!! Loooove the cover. keep doing your thing as you always have and fuck these losers!!!
Dear Father of God…. Where’s Lil Kim when you need her!!!!!!
AND WE ALL KNOW THAT EVERY THING NICKI MINAJ DOES IS FOR A REASON WEATHER YOU LOVE OR HATE IT SHE HAS YOU TALKING SHE HAS YOU WATCHING AND SHE HAS YOU PAYING ATTENTION BECAUSE NO MATTER WHAT WHEN EVER A HATER SEES “NICKI MINAJ” THEY ARE THE TOP FIVE PEOPLE TO COMMENT.. II LOVE HER VERSATILITY SHE RAPS SINGS AND SHE IS A CHARACTER I KNOW MOST OF U GIRLS WAKING UP IN THE MORNING GOING TO WORK YOU GUYS PUT ON MAKE UP AND A DIFFERENT PERSONA BECAUSE I DOUBT THE WAY YOU ARE AT THE CLUB IS HOW U CARRY YOUR ASS INTO WORK… THIS IS WORK FOR NICKI THE WIGS THE CLOTHES THE TONES EVERYTHING… SHE IS BEYOND RAP SHE IS ENTERTAINING YOUR MINDS
I like dis…
#61 did u realize I was talkin about lyrical & rap skills? khia is not commercial & not promoted, not as pretty, but she is real and is talented at what she does, u says she is whack but u didnt even listen to he sns right? at least she has got ONE hit and sold 800K of her album of her own something even keri hilson still didnt, nicki has zero hit by herself, massive attack went nowhere not even in the r&b & hip hop charts, & her album will probably flop as well; all she did was featurings. Nothing against her she is very beautiful but her skills are questionnable. its allabou the over hype.
This cover is very disturbing and just sl**ty! She looks so odd. She looks like a straight up tranny on the cover! I’m kinda in the middle with Nicki. I actually like her animated voice and creativity, but then again, she goes WAY OVERBOARD with it! I just wish that she would tone it down. When she’s speaking in a real conversation, she does seem smart and down-to-earth, but when she’s doing music videos and photo shoots, she’s just out of it! Nicki is a pretty girl and has a BEAUTIFUL SMILE, but when she wears all of this makeup and those crazy a** wigs, it doesn’t show it! Her body doesn’t look like a man, wtf are people talking about? Yes, her butt is fake, but I don’t hear people bashing Janet Jackson for having those fake BREASTS! If Nicki just toned it down and started acting more “normal” I think she could prove how talented she really is.
be better if she didn’t have the wig =\ covers alright, shes pretty though the photoshop is overdone. i like some of her stuff but some the things she be saying .. “p***y on your chipped tooth” … wat?? lol
Double Booooo!!!!! This cover is terrible. Why did they make her face like that? She looks like a dude, not cute!
Was this the same magazine that jacked up Mary J’s cover??
I got it!!!
Minaj looks like Remy Ma in the face!!
NICKI IS A PEDOPHILE SHE PRAYS ON THE YOUTH AND THE KIDS CUZ THEY THE ONLY ONES SHE MIGHT BE SMARTER THAN IF SHE CONVINCED THE LESBIAN TEENAGERS SHE’S A RAPPER HA HA AHA AND VIBE SOLD OUT PUTTIN THAT COVER UP THERE WITH ALL THE KIDDIE CARTOONS KNOWIN THE CHICK IT DAMN NEAR 30 YEARS OLD
@ 70
Janet’s breasts aren’t fake, she’s had them lifted. Big difference. Please leave Ms Jackson out of this post.
Nicki looks like a clown. In the excerpts of this interview she does say that she will be toning down the whole caricature personality because she feels it takes away from her “message”. Whatever the hell that means.
Who ever likes this cover is also a terrible dresser-I’m just saying
The cover is FUGLY !! Airbrush, over done! #FAIL
Nothing wrong with that girl, she just need on a bra. She have a pretty face, healthy figure and natural boobs. Why must we always put our own down? why?

Grown ass women looking like a damn fool lol….these gimmicks needs to be destroyed
Chick is just tired and has a mackey rap flow. She has to be the most retarded female rapper to make it big.
This young lady is not all that bad. Very talented. I believe she is doing what she wants to do, but haven’t really done it to her full ability. But I have a new found respect for her..
I know this is wayyyyyyy off!
After watching Lady GaGa on Larry King. I have a new found respect for her also. She seems so grounded and knows what she want. Go ladies!
she ok at best she not all that foreal and no i’m not hating i’m keeping it real she is highly overrated…if she wasn’t with young money and just some chick coming in to the game by herself doing this people would clown her and nobody would even be supporting her…and people say she the best female rapper…heeelllll nooooo…name 1 albums she dropped? name 2 hit singles that she have by herself????!!!!! massive attack was garbage…and yea she get on other people songz and spit about 5 lines with punchlines of course its gonna be aite you don’t have to put much in to it but point blank she overrated
LOL!
Janet’s breasts are fake wtf are you talking about? They have been for years!
