Nicki Minaj retouches her Hip-Hop roots on the newly surfaced ‘Beez In The Trap (ft. 2 Chainz)’.
The hard-hitting cut is set to serve as the “street single” from the Young Money maven’s ‘Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded’.
What are you waiting for? Listen, via Angie Martinez, after the jump…
Though not lyrically nor musically “ground-breaking”, the cut is just what the Career Dr ordered.
Indeed, at a time when Minaj faces fierce criticism for “selling out” and “going Pop”, she reminds the masses that she can – and will – rough it up where need be.
Sparse production sees Minaj re-enlist her “old” flow, allowing vintage Nicki to take centre-stage. No Pop or Barbie-flavoured hooks here. A welcome throwback. We like.

YASSSSSSSSS! This had me ready to bust out my seat. This is some quality ish right here. Everybody was doubting Nicki saying she went pop. All yall had to do was hold tight. Mama gotcha!

No..not feeling it. Her bars were weak and 2 Chainz w/ his weak ass flow ain’t do nothing for her song..she should of had Wayne or someone else.

Roman Reloaded gave me enough “spitting” for me to buy the album, this song is good! It definitely brings the flow-based Nicki

She is channeling Lola monroe on this one.l am not feeling it,this album seems to be too mucj “thought” to be honest.
Pink Friday was realy appealing but was more natural,sincere.RR is way too calculated,too bad.

Im not crazy about this joint. Nicki didn’t really kill it, and 2Chains NEVER kills , in my opinion. I really don’t get why she did a song with him. Yes, he is the “trendy” rapper being followed for the moment, but he has no substance and will fade very quickly. I’m almost sure of it.

LOL @ all the haterz… Here’s the thing! If you dislike Nicki, nothing she’ll put out will please you. NOTHING. The bitch could do some Mozart type shit and some of you would still say “it’s not hip hop” or “she’s a sell out” or “this ain’t old nicki” or “she sounds like Kim or Lola Monroe” or “she’s not Rihanna” or….
You see how stupid that looks? Well, that’s how you sound. STUPID.
Here’s a clue… stick by your favs and make them number ONE.. Hell, number 23 on the charts. Because all this Booty Chatta from you haterz is doing nothing but feeding the monster that is Nick Minaj. She’s a beast and none of you can contain her.
Cheers!
BTW… NICKI BEEZ IN DA TRAP… Slayed per usual. Do ya thing!

Honestly I’m not impressed with this lol. I’m not hatin, it was just well… Lame. She just repeated herself over and over again. This sounds like a throwaway track that didn’t make the cut on a mixtape.

I think this has to be the laziest sing Nicki has ever done. The hook and chorus is fucking horrible. This album is only going to do well because her fans eat her shit. I don’t see it doing better the pink Friday. She is beyond done.

Wigdy wigdy wack! I thought 2chainz did best on this track eventhough T.I. Killed him in his own song..but by my side is pretty good until she mess it up..trying to rap. Like girl Stfu. &&’nd that’s not true..some people who dislike other artist doesn’t always dislike their songs. I dislike nicki but, she has some good POP songs @HATERZSTAYPRESSED…I’m not buying this album..I didn’t even buy the first one Lmbo
