Bill had this to say about his contract with Minaj…
Nicki is my queen, and I live for her! To be able to work with talent like that and say that you played any small part in their discussion of what moves contemporary culture forward, is a really special thing.
Industry insiders reveal Wackermann’s deal with Minaj is a lucrative one and was created to celebrate her success in fashion and beauty as she creates new opportunities for herself within these lanes.
Wy would a rapper with a solid fan base, 82.6 million Instagram followers and 14 top ten singles want to sign with a modeling agency? It’s to land advertisements and rake in money as the face of a brand, but also to improve their standing in the fashion world and open up more opportunities to co-create with brands. When an already established celebrity is hired to promote a brand, they’re bringing along their personality, their reputation and, most importantly, their voice.

Naturally, this widespread exposure is almost guaranteed to result in higher sales numbers for everyone involved.
