New Song: Nicki Minaj – ‘Bed (ft. Ariana Grande)’

Published: Thursday 14th Jun 2018 by Sam

Nicki Minaj has unleashed new single ‘Bed’ featuring Ariana Grande. 

The track reunites the ‘Side To Side’ sirens and serves as the latest focus single for Onika’s much anticipated album ‘Queen’ (due August 10th).

Fans were sent into a frenzy when the song was announced (alongside the release of the Lil Wayne assisted ‘Rich Sex’).

Have the duo, who also collaborated on ‘Bang Bang,’ nabbed another hit? Listen below and let us know…

A bop! And finally something with more “Pop-Urban” appeal.

Having dabbled with all sorts of sounds, there was understandable demand for Nicki to return to her Hip-Hop core.

Yet, at the same time, the reality is that she has ample mainstream appeal and ought to cater to that sizeable corner of her base. Especially with her album release drawing nearer.

This works well for that cause and then some.

It’s also refreshing in the context of Nicki and Ari collaborations.

If they play their cards correctly, this could be big.

    I need to hear more so far it’s kind of blah. Her and Ari have to step their music up they have 2 of the most anticipated releases of the year!

  2. Binx June 14, 2018

    The song is a lowkey bop. BUT that being said, this song does not belong on a classic hip hop album. Sis giving us PinkPrint 2.0. I want her to win but she needs to push her artistry. Chun li was good but this and rich s** ain’t the ones to cement her place in history.

  3. Achooo! June 14, 2018

    It’s only June so she is going to release every track before August. She is throwing everything at the wall to see what sticks. The white flag is looking real beautiful right about now. She is slowing becoming Ja Rule

      @Achooo – Sooo you like it!

    • Section8DaGreat June 14, 2018

      LOL I said the same thing. Seeing what sticks. Now she’s trying the pop thing to try for a number 1. smh

  4. RihNaj June 14, 2018

    ?????? ?????????

  5. IAMME June 14, 2018

    PURE FIRE!!!!

  6. MARKEL June 14, 2018

    I LIKE THE POP BOP

  7. bubblepopelectric June 14, 2018

    They did what they had to do! This one should def guarantee them another top 10

  8. XYZ June 14, 2018

    Finally a nice song. But that’s it, nice. Actually I loved in the beginning, but it was already a bit boring after two minutes. It‘s far better than rich S** though. With that being said, I be no clue where she wants to go with this album, but from what I have heard this will definitely be no classic. Actually no frauds would have suited better, especially with the visuals

  9. mr.m June 14, 2018

    flop

  10. Jacob June 14, 2018

    Slowly but surely I’m losing interest in the music industry and the new music that’s coming out and the s h I t that’s being played on the radio…. IM BORED

    • XYZ June 14, 2018

      You‘re not the only one

      • MessyBoots June 14, 2018

        same here

    • Really June 14, 2018

      I absolutely feel the same way. It’s not as exciting as it use to be …..

  11. Erica June 14, 2018

    it’s cute, but to be calling yo album a classic and the best out of all your work it’s nothing of the sort and don’t qualify for that title right now all of the stuff you release I heard better from you so yikes!

  12. Whoops ???‍♀️?? June 14, 2018

    ? Maybe these comments and the article got my expectations up, but the song is boring af. It’s cute. But it’s nothing special and the chorus is not strong enough to be big, no matter how they play their cards. And more than this, Ariana and Nicki need to learn a new trick already. It’s tired. What would actually be refreshing is if they found other female artists to collaborate with.

  13. TaylorDuh June 14, 2018

    Sadly I’m bored with this song, Rich s** hands down better , And will garnish more attention than Bed.

  14. Blahzee June 14, 2018

    issa no

  15. RihtheAVONqueen June 14, 2018

    Wow this era is a mess. Everything she has released is a mess. The singles don’t even have similar themes. The album is a mess. She should just scrap it and call it a day

    • Meme June 14, 2018

      Why would the singles have similar themes? Did Cardis singles had similar themes?

      • RihNaj June 14, 2018

        Everyone riding a ban wagon with that one?…wait till the album drop to criticise ….am sure it’s gonna be ?

      • RihtheAVONqueen June 14, 2018

        Listen h o e her rapping has been all over the place. A Album has a certain theme and this rollout has been a mess. Why bring cardi up? No one brought her up. This just shows she’s a threat and officially took nicki a crown!

    • Bodaky Yakky June 14, 2018

      Where did anyone mention Cardi? The fact that you’re comparing her to the “queen” is telling. A seat is in order, sis. Have it.

    • Hoodrat June 14, 2018

      How you going to criticize Nicki Minaj while letting Cardi B slide? You are just another hating ass h**.

  16. justafan June 14, 2018

    I literally had to to fast forward to the end…zzzzz

  17. June 14, 2018

    I like it.

  18. S.U.P.E.R.S.T.A.R.!. June 14, 2018

  20. Hoodrat June 14, 2018

    This is a BOP! Perfect for the summer!

  21. Ri Ri June 14, 2018

    I can rock wit it.

  22. SuxMyCockiness =o June 14, 2018

    This just sounds so juvenile for a artist of her age and caliber. She needs to take an extended break and find some inspiration, cause these songs aren’t it…

    • XYZ June 14, 2018

      What a caliber? She is successful and a worldwide name, yes. But she has never been a meaningful artist or is mentioned with the big ones. All the years and success, yet she never achieved the status of a lauryn hill. She is big, yes, but I would never her see as a serious musician

      • Thatflopjuice June 14, 2018

        This! ?? The audacity is Nicki wanting the queen of rap title yet her music isn’t back worthy of the throne. She’s a product. Not a true artist! Barbz don’t know the difference.

    • Hoodrat June 14, 2018

      Her ability to write verses does make her an artist. She has written numerous verses and songs for other singers/rappers. She just recently wrote one for Kanye West. A lot of verses, especially from Pink Print, were very personal and memorable. This woman has also been mentioned with the greats. You just don’t like her or her music. That’s fine. Move along.

      • Jasmine (The Original Princess) June 14, 2018

        Repeating all these b.tches is my sons 1000x ain’t no artistry ?‍♂️ Sit down

      • Yall so dumb!! June 14, 2018

        She wrote a bar on Kanye West song and he didn’t even use it how she said so she basically contribute. I wish yall stop trying to give her extra credit…..

      • XYZ June 15, 2018

        Nah, that‘s not true. I like some of her songs and verses. I don’t like her personality, but I like some of her music. What I mean that she is not a consistent serious artist and her fans act like she was somehow an innovative artist that has set the bar up high. And that she has clearly not, she’s never had any real meaning her songs, damn, some where just incoherent words put together. As I said, she is a successful artist and I give her that, but she is not really an artist with a certain standard of quality, which you can already see in the 4 singles she has released for this album? What does she stand for? What does one see, when someone think of her. Personally, I don’t see an artist, but more an enormous walking ass with big tits mumbling something bout vanilla chai latte in a p**** that has a lot of sons that happen to be b******.

  23. The truth June 14, 2018

    Nope this will flop too

    • Fancy BISH June 14, 2018

      lol ?

    • Hoodrat June 14, 2018

      What do you consider a flop though? What has Beyonce released lately that did better?

  24. ontherun June 14, 2018

    A BOP

  25. Thatflopjuice June 14, 2018

    Omg what a snoozer. It’s clear Nick and ariana are chasing hit and runs on billboard cuz this is not a classic pop collabo. It’s actually their worst song. St Nick doesn’t make music for her age group. Nothing grown and she hasn’t evolved at all. She deserves to flop. Every artist has at some point so what makes Nicki the exception?

  26. Fancy BISH June 14, 2018

    Done Li continues her mediocre streak…slay sis lmao ?

  27. Jaybee June 14, 2018

    It’s a smooth song, but i will be another no frauds, Barbie tings, etc…. disappear! The only people checking for her now is her fans!!! Nicki isn’t better than kim just like cardi isn’t better than nicki, but when your time is up….YOUR TIME IS UP!!!! QUEEN? ?????????

  33. RealTalk June 14, 2018

    Nicki is the queen of crossover rap NBS I’ll give her that. She needs to stick to this formula and stop trying to cater to remy and cardi fans. Remy got her lane and Cardi got her lane. Stick to what made u famous ask Rihanna and Beyonce. Don’t change the formula Ijs

  34. ROCK June 15, 2018

    Lol.You guys are blind and stupid if you think Nicki is not desperate at this point.She named the album ‘queen’ with that cheap attention seeking cover.She has dropped four songs in two months.She is trying so hard to knock off Cardi b.I am not a hater.i just say it as I see it.
    And of course she will be number 1 on iTunes.Every new song is number one there for a while.
    I think she should just chill.She is damaging herself physically and mentally.All that plastic surgery and what not.You can’t be the only female in hippop..cos you sure ain’t in rap.I feel the only female mc that deserves to be number one based on TALENT is azelia banks but that won’t happen now because she is stupid.

  35. DanYiel Iman June 15, 2018

    Yea I’ll pass on anything Tricki Garbagh is offering!!
