New Song: Nicki Minaj – ‘Right By My Side (ft. Chris Brown)’

Published: Tuesday 20th Mar 2012 by David

In the mood for new Nicki Minaj music?

Then get right into ‘Right By My Side’, her duet with Chris Brown, lifted from her new LP ‘Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded’ below…

Listen here

Though we’re ‘here’ for ‘Right’, we are a little disappointed that her Nicki the Rapper has been forced to play a backseat to Nicki the singer.

For, as much as we understand her need to diverse and expand, she is yet to release a single which truly showcases her skills as an MC. A shame, seeing as ‘Catch Me‘ and ‘Muny‘ remain relatively anonymous to the masses.

However, with her collab with 2Chainz on its way, our prayers may be answered sooner than we think.

Your thoughts?

    It’s not a leak. It was supposed to be released today. It’s supposed to be on iTunes soon according to Nicki’s fan site.

    Anyway the link isnt working for me. Is the song good?! Is he singing or rappin?! I need answers! Ugh!

  5. Itsme March 20, 2012

    VA STAND UP!! of course she is singing and she sounds like a scared little kid singing on stage in a elementary school talent show….

  6. Josu March 20, 2012

    Sounds SO SWEET! I love it!

  7. @CBDani March 20, 2012

  8. haterzstaypressed March 20, 2012

    I LOVE IT! That s*** is a certified banger! Nicki and Chris sound good together!! This song is gonna hit on the Pop, Hip Hop and R&B charts! Goooooooo Nicki! Now please put the pics up of Nicki in Japan!! Her Japanese fans mobbed her at Narita Airport!

  9. MISHKA March 20, 2012

    The truth?

    From the beginning till before the rap part, the song IS A HIT, not close to a “Dilemma” 2.0 but at least close to a “No Air” 2.0.

    THE RAP PART RUINED IT!

    Regarding the video, if they both keep their hair black, if they play the lovey-dovey and if they edit the rap out, the song is a hit.

    I like it, and their fans will love it. Don’t f-ck the video up, that’s all.

    TGJ you can’t have both ways. A few days ago with the track listing released, you guys were disappointed that the album leaned more toward hip hop than pop, right? Or am I mistaken? Now you’ve flipped it and want her to be more hip hop/rap?

    Make ya minds up….

  11. RIHANNANAVY CAPTAIN March 20, 2012

    The song sounds like a hit; HOWEVER…

    Doesn’t Nicki Minaj sound A LOT like KANDI BURRUSS on this song???

    Rihanna >>>>>> Beyonce + Katy Perry + Lady Gaga + TGJ

  12. geees March 20, 2012

    lawd yall might as well change the name of this site from that grape juice to “nic-bey-ri-mdna-brown juice”

  13. RIHANNANAVY CAPTAIN March 20, 2012

    LOL @geees – you are right…but add gaga and katy to that list…it’s a stan website basically…

  14. Miguel March 20, 2012

    Didn’t she say she wasn’t gonna do more collabos in 2012?

    lol

  15. VA STAND UP!! March 20, 2012

    I’ve heard it. It’s cute, catchy as hell. Nice lil summer song but it’s nothing spectacular IMO. Even though Nicki is singing on the majority of the song she actually sounds decent, I don’t like her rap verse though. I’m just glad CB isn’t rappin on it.

    I’m sure when they release it to iTunes it will shoot up the charts. We’ll see if we get a video.

  16. Gevon Taylor March 20, 2012

    If you hate Nicki, why download it? Chris is not a centerpiece for s***! The son would be ok without Jim! S***! If you don’t like Nicki, then fall thee f*** back! No one needs the negativity! Support or shut up. Opinions are opinions and this is my own. If you have nothing good or beneficial to say to better her career, then say nothing at all. Simple.

  17. Black Madonna March 20, 2012

    YESSSS GET EM NICKI !!!! ….THIS WHOLE “DIDNT SHE SAY SHE WASNT DOIN ANY MORE COLLABS?” MESS IS JUS THE TYPICAL RESPONSE OF A HATER THAT LIKES THE SONG BUT RATHER THAN SAYING THAT THEY RATHER MAKE A MUTE POINT. #UnderCoverFans

  18. quit playing March 20, 2012

    nicki needs to not shave off anymore of her nose..thats my concern

  19. EDUBB March 20, 2012

    As a lilkim Rider I WILL SAY THIS WILL GO #1 R&B.
    NICKI FINALLY IMPRESSED ME, I’M AN OLD HEAD & GOT A FEEL GOOD VIBE FROM THE TRACK!, THIS IS HER LANE, LEAVE THAT ROMAN/KIM DISSING ALONE & SHE WILL BE O.K! HAVEN’T LIKED A SONG LIKE THIS. SINCE ” DILEMMA”

  20. SimplyConnieB March 20, 2012

    This song is actually really dope! And I can see everyone this summer that gets boo’d up trying to have this as the ringtone for the significant other. But I’m hoping she brings back her mc chops. Nicki as a pop artist, I can’t stand, but as a female mc….yea she got that on lock! DISPLAY IT MORE NICK! C’mon

  21. KAT DELUNA FAN March 20, 2012

    Typical pop song,nothing groundbreaking !!she said it will change the face of pop music? 😕 Nicki please

  22. RDK March 20, 2012

    i can’t even explain how much i love this f-cking song CB and NM lock this sh-t down.

  23. THE GREAT LACEFRONCE. March 20, 2012

    FISTopher= FLOP! THIEF(did he give that girl her phone back 😕 ) Just an all around CRIMINAL . His voice Is shite. Very THIN & he STRUGGLES to hit any type of note

  24. Minajesty March 20, 2012

    its alright! chris brown is s*** though, but i heard “beez in the trap” is a proper rap song cant wait to hear it tonight!

  25. Always love you, Whitney (RIP) March 20, 2012

    Her vocals are weak. She needs to get singing lessons or stop singing. It could have been a good hit if someone else was singing on the track like rihanna or something but ummmmm….the rapping part was the only good part. Same ol same ol. Not impressed but the melody of it is somewhat decent. Chris Brown sounds wack! Nothing special though.

  26. Ass March 20, 2012

    .@black Madonna

    You were looking to say “moot” not “mute” point…

  27. haha March 20, 2012

  30. Lea March 20, 2012

    POP trash.

  31. Lisa March 20, 2012

    Is this hip hop?

  32. Ibdreamking March 20, 2012

    What you silly negative rabbits don’t understand is that when you sit and listen to the whole damn song then take the time to write a negative moment she has officially completed her mission lol and on behalf of all team Minaj we say…. Thank you!

  33. Kpeezy March 20, 2012

    @Edubb

    Your first mistake was stating that you are Kim stan.

  34. NICKIMINAJDAPRESIDENT March 20, 2012

  36. Tiny March 20, 2012

    I like it!!!

  37. QueenSize March 20, 2012

    Everytime someone features on her music they kill it better than her. drake on moment for life, Kanye on that other song, Rihanna on fly and now this. She got no business singing on tracks. “Got Vocal Coaching?”

  38. kody3x March 20, 2012

    chris brown of course makes this song

  39. HAPPY AS HELL March 20, 2012

    i like it but,i think the track needs more chris brown on it! he is the singer!!

  40. Christ brown is a twat March 20, 2012

    F*** Chris brown. Women beating c*** jockey.

  41. LAX March 20, 2012

    @THE GREAT LACEFRONCE H** STFU

    Why are you so press on Chris Brown and Nicki Minaj

    Your Just A Hater and your just like RATEDX, Lonely and have nobody in ur life…..

    You and Ratedx should date each other because both of ya just complain and hate

  42. Quan March 20, 2012

    Sorry not feeling it. Long live the days of female RAPPERS! Can someone please bring Eve & Missy out I done had enough of this popcorn music foreal! People can call me a hater all they want. Nicki cool and all but this Pop s*** is annoying! I love when people rapped for the love of hip hop and not for the brand!

  43. Black Butterfly March 20, 2012

    mediocre, no fiyah!

  44. HALF AMAZIN March 20, 2012

    The “rapping” should have been the main song with CB singing the chorus. She has absolutely no business singing.

  45. Kayla March 20, 2012

    This is the duet I’ve befn waiting for since Pink Friday..although I would’ve perfered a more up tempo song…but I live. And rumors say she will be on Fortune…can’t wait

    @TGJ, if you want singing nicki you got Marilyn Monroe and young forever so far…idk bout the rest of the songs because we ain’t heard em…I love this song..

  46. Tbozfan10 March 20, 2012

    It was aite but I was a bit bored until she started rapping. That’s what I liked the most. Everything else was just aite.

  47. mobwife March 21, 2012

    I loved everything until the raunchy rap! “It’s not your spit game but your d*ck game”? I mean really Nicki 0_O? I was good up until that point because its a cute summer young love pop type tune.

    Anyway, once they edit the rap out and a cute innocent video emerges, I’d say Nic and Mr. Brown have a winner on their hands! YEAH 3X Haters…lol 🙂

  48. mobwife March 21, 2012

    @EDUBB

    110% Co-Sign! 🙂 I don’t want to hate on Nicki but I’ve been riding w/Lil Kim for a minute. As long as she leaves Lil K alone and that Roman/satanic bulsh** I’m cool with her!
