Hot Shot: Nicki Minaj Shoots ‘Pound The Alarm’ Video In Trinidad

Published: Wednesday 4th Jul 2012 by Sam

Easily one of the favourites from Nicki Minaj‘s ‘Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded’ LP, the pulsating ‘Pound The Alarm’ is being given the single treatment.

Fresh from blazing the stage at last Sunday’s BET Awards, the Young Money maven headed home to her native of Trinidad, where she shot the cut’s accompanying video.

We have it on good word that the clip, a pic from which surfaced above, is set to feature extras and color a plenty. Needless to say we can’t wait!

Haven’t heard the track? Take a listen after the jump…

    She’s looking like a hot Lil’ Kim wannabe mess as usual I see. Nothing new or original to be found with Onika.

    • Raz @RomanAZolanski July 4, 2012

      That is a CarnivalOutfit from her HOMELAND. Krim was born in America. That’s NOT hasbeen’s heritage. That is ALL Nicki. Stop bringing up irrelevant whores on Nicki post. Why are you even here? You don’t like her but you are the first comment. BeenAFan

      • Honestly Speaking July 4, 2012

        You really need to remove your head from Nicki’s inflated behind. I couldn’t care less whether this outfit originated from her culture or not . I wasn’t even addressing the outfit (although I could almost confidently say that Kim has worn several variations of the same outfit over her decade (+) long career) as much as I was her overall appearance and lack of artistic integrity. How about you actually try reading before commenting.

      • Yardie July 4, 2012

        this is NOT Caribbean festival wear smh

    • WELL DAMN! July 4, 2012

      @HonestlySpeaking Go find a post about your fave Lil’Kim and direct your much needed attention toward helping her become relevant again. oh wait, Nobody’s posting about her because she’s irrelevant.

      • TIMELESS July 4, 2012

        @HonestlySpeaking Nicki Minaj is creating a DISTANT LANE from Kim’s , SO KILL THE HATE!

      • Honestly Speaking July 4, 2012

        Lil’ Kim is very much so relevant and there wouldn’t even be a Nicki Minaj if it hadn’t been for Kim so why don’t you have SEVERAL seats for thinking that Nicki is anything other than a broke down wannabe relevant b****.

    • SD July 4, 2012

      you sound like a clown. This is Carnival…typical of Trinidadian costumes how the hell is she looking like kim? Get a life

    • OpD2 July 4, 2012

      HONESTLY SPEAKING please go back to school you ignorant b-tch and honestly speaking i school won’t help you a second time around you are damage goods beyond any form of help,

      • Honestly Speaking July 4, 2012

        Was that insult supposed to hurt me? learn proper Grammar before you try to come for me you ignant b****.

    • PRETTIGURLROCKD July 5, 2012

      Actually it looks similar to the outfit Hoeanna wore at her barbadoes carnival last year…which was also in the Cheers drink to that video.

      But anyway, y do people always feel the need to say everything looks like kim? I think ppl need to let it rest. It’s getting super old and lame.

      • Yer wat July 5, 2012

        Honestly speak,

        In regards to the use of correct grammar. There is no need to have a capital G for the word gramma, mid sentence.

      • Honestly Speaking July 5, 2012

        I know that thank you very much 🙂 but since you’re correcting others on their typos then please at least get my username correct. It’s “Honestly Speaking” not “speak” and also the proper word is “grammar” and not “gramma”. Goodbye.

  2. Raz @RomanAZolanski July 4, 2012

    OMG this will be her best video yet!!!!!!

  3. Maad*Moiselle July 4, 2012

    She looks AMAZING!!!!

  4. Lee July 4, 2012

  6. You July 4, 2012

    I hope it’s not stupid as starship

  7. Benron July 4, 2012

    Is she aware she cant dance?

    • PRETTIGURLROCKD July 5, 2012

      yeah, she is. She said herself a long time ago in an interview that she isn’t a dancer.

  8. YASSSSS July 4, 2012

    yasssssss! trini massive! looks dope, and normal! my fave kind of nicki

  9. S****** Blonde July 4, 2012

    I don’t know i like her but i miss her this era, bring back the Nicki of the first album please!.

  10. TIMELESS July 4, 2012

    She looks great! Again i’m not the biggest fan, but not a hater either.
    I don’t see Kim at all when i look at the picture, nor when i hear the song SO DON’T START THE COMPARISONS! Again i’m the biggest fan (NOT A BARB), thoe i do think its a great look for her.

    I hope she keeps this up, because i’m starting to feel Nicki. The RIGHT BY MY SIDE video was a killer, she has TONED DOWN HER LOOK A LITTLE, she’s STARTING TO REALLY RAP AGAIN & her BET PERFORMANCE was awesome.

    NO HATE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  11. HeavyHeavy July 4, 2012

  15. Layla July 4, 2012

    She looks like a f*cking clown.Is this Hip Hop?

    • HaterzStayPressed July 4, 2012

      Kim is the one who looks like she belongs in the damn circus. How you gonna say Nicki looks like a f*****’ clown, when Kim is unrecognizable to the masses? Fake lips, fake chin, fake cheeks, fake hips and ass, fake hair, fake everything – she looks like the incredible plastic woman – Hell Marvel Comics should base a character off of her plastic ass because Kim is UNNATURAL and ugly as f***. You can’t come for Nicki’s looks whatsoever, b****. Have several seats and go support your floptacular fave.

      Get mad, stay mad and most of all, stay PRESSED. Nicki has WON the battle and WAR. Your fav? She won the love and support of hood rats who don’t even buy her paypal mixtape.

      SIT BOO BOO, SIT… GOOD DOG.

      • Jessica July 4, 2012

        Nicki swagger jacked Kim, Missy and Foxy!!! Her s*** ain’t new!!! Nicki is plastic also, so who’s the clown- NICKI SWAGGER JACKER GARBARJI!!!

      • Anna July 5, 2012

        Oh so Kim is the only one who is unnatural? So You think Nicki’s superficial attitude, bad wigs, fake ass, fake boobs, different colored contacts, fake personalities, different accents (etc.) are REAL? If you actually think that’s real than go get mental help you burnt barb fan.

    • Raz @RomanAZolanski July 5, 2012

      Nicki is QueenOfHipHop DEAL

      • Anna July 5, 2012

        Nicki isn’t the Queen of anything so you can just stop with that b******* you ugly ass burnt barb fan

      • PRETTIGURLROCKD July 5, 2012

        “Lil Kriminal” *flatline* 😀

    • Raz @RomanAZolanski July 5, 2012

      PTA is breaking records. While Krim can’t even get on Billboard. Yh real s***** =_=

  18. Trini_Minaj July 4, 2012

    Let it be known that this is how we party in Trinidad for Carnival. Wait till the vid comes and u will see.

  19. POP ROYALTY ( Révolution) July 4, 2012

    a fat with a silicon filled ass flopped drag queen who is trying to be a pop princess after flopping as a rapper with all of her supposedly rap songs. even her biggest hit is a pop song with vocals from another woman.

    cockroach.

    • FAF July 4, 2012

      With a fan writing adjectives in her thread cuz he’s tired as f*** and his washed up fave could never come for the Queen of Rap. bow down & salute, f** !

      • POP ROYALTY ( Révolution) July 4, 2012

        with a name like FAF , you should not come ever again to my reply space.

      • Raz @RomanAZolanski July 5, 2012

        Exactly

    • Raz @RomanAZolanski July 5, 2012

      At the end of the day Nicki is winning and you will continue to run to her post. BeenAFan

    • PRETTIGURLROCKD July 5, 2012

      For once, I agree with you.

      • PRETTIGURLROCKD July 5, 2012

        but she hasn’t rly flopped as a rapper til her new album. Her pop songs though could never compete with real pop artists in mainstream though. She’s just not good enough. Her singing is worse than rihanna’s.

      • FAF July 5, 2012

        That ain’t flopped, neither… these haters are pressed as ffuck.. kim is the one whos album cant reach gold after 7 years… #WHEREDEYDODATAT ?

  20. Steve July 4, 2012

    I like Nicki, but I’m so tired of all these pop singles. Smh. Get ya money…i guess that’s what it’s all about with her anyway.

  21. dang July 4, 2012

      • PRETTIGURLROCKD July 5, 2012

      • dang July 5, 2012

        B****, I never said anything specific about Kim. you bobblehead.

    • Raz @RomanAZolanski July 5, 2012

      How long has it actually been since kim “ate” as good as nicki?? Just bein real…since she been eating that prison food?

      • FAF July 5, 2012

        since she went to motel 6 & had some dry ass lasagna w/ her mexican boyfriend…

      • MSTEEFROMDC July 5, 2012

        how soon we forget, kim still has royalties. kim still touring and all that money she gets in her pocket except for a few folks you have to pay while touring. on the other hang nicki don’t see none of it til birdman and wayne get their cuts off the top then nicki gets the leftovers. Sometimes being independent is where its at. Kim can always tour under her old catalog of music. nicki will never be able to do that..her music is garbarge. and fyi kim made way more money than Nicki last year..ijs.

      • Aunt.dot July 5, 2012

        u seen KIM mansion?…. b**** go back to your basement room and cry.

        and as for kim BF. yo he’s no b**** boy on the leash like SF

    • truth teller July 5, 2012

      ??

  32. Tbozfan10 July 5, 2012

    Y’all are really grasping at straws now -“lil Kim- lady marmalade” ummm how about no. Did u even watch that video? Kim didn’t wear anything like this. I know it sucks that your Fave dissappeared from the music scene 7 whole years ago, but if y’all actually supported her with your money instead of your mouthes maybe she could have a career again. Just sayin.

  33. Truth July 5, 2012

    B****

  34. Rock July 5, 2012

    Some of you all sound so damn ignorant! geez! So now every damn thing Nicki does, Kim have to be mentioned? Get over your self. Kim was not so damn talented anyway. You would swear Kim did such great stuff. Pure ghetto trash and you guys sound like you will literally kill someone for saying a thing about Kim. Please!

  35. The Zolonski Trap July 5, 2012

    you d*** sucking, upset b******!!! Kim ain’t never did nuthing like that! You wanna know why, that a Nickierized Trinadian tribal costume. So WHEN THE F*** did that f****** cat in the hat look alike do that. Exactly! Yall just upset that Nicki is winning and yall fav is loosing. Go Nicki!!!! #PoundtheAlarm
    #IfYouWasn’tSoUglyI’dPutMyDickInYoFace

  36. Steve July 5, 2012

    I wish she would do herself and other people a favor and stop making horrible music. By the way she looks like a f****** bird.

    • OpD2 July 5, 2012

      she have nothing to do with you,she isn’t forcing you to buy are listen to her music,f-ck you running on here talking about she should stop this and that who da f-ck is you,people who cares about her is cool with her,so your comment is void.

      • Eva July 5, 2012

        Honestly, I didn’t even completely read what you wrote since your grammar was so bad. By the way, a person’s opinion is not void just because you don’t agree with it you burnt barbie fan. I suggest you go back to school so that you can stop wasting time with your atrocious comments.

  37. fake ray ban sunglasses December 14, 2012

    B15 XLT Lens Ray-Ban B15 XLT lenses are brownish in color, block 100% of all UV rays and allow only 15% of the visible light to pass through them (that’s an 85% reduction!). These brown lenses also offer a bit more contrast by cutting down on the amount of blue light, as opposed to a G15 lens (which is described in the next paragraph). Blue light is very easily captured by the eye and has the effect of softening other colors that are harsher to our vision. In other words, by reducing the amount of blue light, the differences between colors and brightness of objects are more pronounced.
