Nicki Minaj: “Loosen The F*ck Up!”

Published: Monday 12th Apr 2010 by Sam

In a recent interview with SPIN magazine, Nicki Minaj once again hit out at her critics, offering the following:

“It bothers me when people take themselves too seriously. It’s like, loosen the fuck up. At the end of the day, this is entertainment. We should be entertained. I’ve gone through the ’12-Step Hip-Hop Program’: the mixtapes, the DVDs, the low-budget videos, the small shows. I thank God that I wasn’t signed years ago and that I didn’t have a hit record before I did the grind. I’m ready now.”

Your thoughts?

  6. ADE April 12, 2010

    this b**** needs to shut the f*** up, when she actually releases an album and has a hit single she talk all she wants, right now shes gettin a bit too big for her boots…silly c*** 😀

  7. ADE April 12, 2010

    i meant she can talk all she wants 😀

    I feel the same way. nicki minaj is not going to be what everyone wants her to be…she can only be herself. What I like is that she is very different as far as looks are concerned and is using what she has to make it in this industry because in the end that is all you can do.

    @Jonstrax…some people take themselves too seriously…some dont take themselves seriously enough or focus on the wrong things. i spent the weekend looking at awful live performances by many people … most notable Letoya Luckett who I just found live is just a no-no…. and it makes me grateful for ppl like Nicki Minaj.

    She bores me…

  12. Floptina April 12, 2010

    She looks like a man. And she is promoting smoking in her photos. What an evil trash.

  13. Lovin’MyBreezy April 12, 2010

    Shes too beautiful to have that cancer stick in her hand. Not a good look..

    Not everyone does music for “Entertainment” you stupid bimbo. I hate this Nicki Minaj person. Some people make music to cause awareness or simply to express themselves. Your fake and your debut single is an EPIC FAIL.

    I agree, I think. It’s her way of entertaining, so either you like it or you don’t! But I guess I’m in between with her. I like her lyrics and her delivery but I HATE, HATE, HATE that Barbie B*******! It’s so childish!

  16. Allthesebxtchesismysons April 12, 2010

    wtf do you mean promoting smoke you dumbass? you sound so dumb, thats really the only s*** u can pop about her? when beyonce smoked a cigar in her music video I hope you had something to say about that too… Dumbass.

  18. DB April 12, 2010

    @Floptina and @Truth i totally agree with @allthesebxtchesismysons! its hella lame to criticize somones every move and find every small reason to talk s***. weve seen beyonce with a cigar and rihanna with a cigarette in several promo pics including the pic where the tracklisting is on the back of Rated R and these are 2 of todays biggest female acts and theyre looked at as beautiful women. but im pretty sure yal didnt have s*** to say about that.

    NICKI MINAJ IS AN EPIC FAIL!
    ugh, so now, shes saying people need to loosen up? at the end of the day you NEED to take your career seriously and not fool around. being a musician or artist is not all about performing and being “loose”.
    FAIL

  20. ladylove April 12, 2010

    music is supposed to be ART!!! ppl need to realize that and stop doing what they have no business doing. i dont care what lame excuse they have bcuz at the end of the day they are destroying what i love.

  21. X,Y,”and Z” April 12, 2010

    This Chick is sheer-Gangsta: she’s getting ALL of the attention, WITHOUT-YET putting-out an Album. She’s building a ‘cult-of-personality’, and WHEN her CD does drop….BOOM!

    …No, this chick is media-savvy: her saying NO, to Rihanna, has made everyone sit-up and take notice of her. We’re NOW asking ourselves: “Who does THIS Chick, think SHE is?” …She’s a chick, whose CD, we ALL-NOW must look-forward-to; and from the-looks-of-it: she has the “Gravitas” to “sell it!”

    X,Y,”and Z” — OUT!

  22. derek April 13, 2010

  26. ah April 4, 2011

    Why are all peeps tripin ? i dont even listen to her type of music , but i know she’s just trying to ENTERTAIN people. And if you want messages ala Green Day, (which is one of my fav bands) at the end of the day theyre tryin to ENTERTAIN us too by kickin ass live shows. All music can have some type of current event and/or relevant messages, but in the end they are all meant to ENTERTAIN us because music is what after all? Music is an ART form of expression and art is meant to ENTERTAIN us. And if youre not ENTERTAINED with what youre listening to, wtf are you listening to it for anyways. Ive always been ENTERTAINED by music from Ozzy and others in the same genre of heavy metal, thrash etc. If they have a message in thier songs, its awesome as long as what? As long as it ENTERTAINS me, cuz if it doesnt then, why the hell am i gonna listen to it. BTW to be ENTERTAINED by a song also means that you may not exactly dig the lyrics or the “message” in a song but can be ENTERTAINING by the rythym or the beat of the music. Figure it out for yourselves people.
