No stranger to moving a crowd, ‘Moment 4 Life’ femcee Nicki Minaj took to the MGM Grand Garden Arena hosted ‘iHeartRadio Music Festival’ last night in Las Vegas to rock with the likes of Lady Gaga, Jennifer Lopez, and more. Acting as sole rap representative for the night, and only one of two rap acts billed for the entire festival (see: Jay Z – night 1), the rapstress undoubtedly held her own in a colorful set that displayed the energy and wackiness fans have grown to know and love of the ‘Your Love’ performer.
Blazing through her hottest hip hop hits, fans can see more of Minaj after the jump:
While never claiming to be much of a singer and recognition that singing isn’t her first calling, we kinda want to give Nick Nick (like hip hop hitmakers The Dream, Drake, etc.) a pass for some of those sounds. For with a style that was arguably popularized by early 2000 rappers Ja Rule and Nelly, (some) emcees either think it’s ok or funny to sing off-key. Well, umm, it’s neither. Minaj definitely moved this crowd, but during certain moments during the ‘Moment 4 Life’ performers set, I believe they were moved toward some earplugs or exit signs. E

Hip-Hop hits? *holds in laughter*
And does this heffa have a chicken wing around her neck? I’m done.
where are nicole scherzinger’s performances?
OMG…
She’s such a c*** for this. No seriously.
iLoveYou…..welcome new hater welcome……anyways nicki lock it down she did her thing she Clearly step it up….keep doing you nicki.
her “Gangsta” voice doesn’t even sound right anymore…
lmao
@>Y.U.MAD?
You don’t need that fried chicken around her neck?
This h** is a GIMMICK with NO talent
dualabe sigh she eating chicken b-itches thats the point,sigh it have nothing to do with being black[as some people love to generalize us as chicken eaters] it have to do with her,till the world end remix verse, i am a fan so i know were everything she do,s is coming from……anyways you already new that…so please don’t play ignorant are ask hypothetical questions.
THE GREAT LACEFRONCE RETURNS your lice cra-tch needs some d***** out…i though that infected thing would have hospitalize you infected a-ss by know seems you are stronger than you look…Eww don’t touch me….on another note haters will be haters keep ding you nicki.
the sound is a mess
she sounded a mess
her outfit is a mess
the pink drumstick is a mess
Wow she did a lot more than I thought sh’s do, course half the s*** was bleeped out so…shrugs.
I’ll give it to her, she’s not a singer but anyone else would have resorted to pre-recordings after a certain point to get their pitch right.
Those voices are part of her trademark so I’m glad she’s getting better at doing them live, she can take them out of certain songs though. I’d change that. Also she needs to increase her back up dancer’s budget a little and get those girls some real costumes. Lol. Otherwise I’d say it’s a big improvement over her early live acts.
Loved Y.U.Mad, glad she was allowed to do that one since it’s still so new.
As a RIDE OR DIE Kim fan I must admit Nicki has stepped her Stage Presence up just a Lil…. it only took the H** Two Years!!! lol
Props tho….
@Y.U.Mad
Is there a problem?
@Great Lacefronce you talking about no talen and you are stanning for Reanna #ICANT
`iLoveYou no there is not i am just welcoming you the new hater,if you are new that is,are one of the regulars on here with a different account….well you have a right to hate,are an opinion as you will claim….just as how i have the right to tell you that you are full of sh-it…get it?cool.
@Y.U. MAD
H** HUSH!
Nicki GARBAJ is a JOKE.
Her “raps” often sound like they were written by a middle school CHILD & her singing is pure SHITE…HENCE, the reason she has to create this ridiculous PERSONA to distract attention away from her LACK OF TALENT.
Nicki GARBAJ is a GIMMICK & GIMMICKS can only be relevant for so long.
DEAL!
@LMFAO
B**** STFU!
THE GREAT LACEFRONCE doesn’t STAN for anyone. I state FACTS!
Rihanna>>>>>>>>>>>>Nicki GARBAJ
@THE GREAT LACEFRONCE RETURN
U speak nathing but i truth sometimes!!!!
niki is a gimmick flop friday has been out almost a year now and it has sold 1.456,562 milli ww.now thats a flop such a lady gaga wanna be
#smfh!!!
the*
Nicki GARBAJ has only sold 1.4 million ww??? LMAOOOOOOOOOO!
1 million of those sales are from the US ..FLOP FLOP FLOPPPPPPPPPPPPPP!
Garbaj will NEVER be like Lauryn 😉
@Y.U.Mad.
Where do you see hate in my comments? Do you even know the defintion of a hater? I gave my opinion just like everyone else. If you don’t like it, scroll past what I have to say. It’s not that serious.
GENIUS !!
Nicki Minaj >>> JLO >>>GAGA
Lol haters can keep coming back but they can’t get enough of nicki no matter what. I think gaga is a better performer but nicki is entertaining! I am anticipating nicki’s 2nd album and I’m pretty sure it will s*** all over krim’s!. 😀 Kim already lost a huge fanbase with Wack friday. I mean black friday. Sorry, you can’t rebuild your career off of s***. Nicki taking the right path of sucess and promotion without negativity! It’s doing her good.
Well I See Ms. Clown Gimmick Minaj Is Trying To Step Her Stage Presence Up ! Anyways Why She Still Got That Fried Chicken Around Her Neck Which Represents KIM & Nicki Stays PRESSED ! Also I Finally Agree With The Great Lacefronce Because She Is Speaking The Truth !
Uh….what does Lil Kim have to do with this post? I promise, stans are so sensitive, and invest too much time in these celebs. I agree with ILoveYou, it’s really not that serious
Anyways, I didn’t enjoy these performances. She’s done better.
THE GREAT LACEFRONCE RETURNS so how many albums you have sold,that is the question?you are a lonely lonely person you know,that,s why you go on ever artist post and say something bad..in hopes for someone to talk to you even to say something bad,it don’t matter as long as they acknowledge you..sigh so sad on your part i tell ya.
I’m FAR from a Nicki fan, but those performances were solid.It’s refreshing to see a rapper performing a whole set with no backing track and even if her songs are not very intricate, I still have to give her some kind of props for “rapping”/talking all the verses live.However, DEAD @ the white blonde girl doing a bootyshake.I hope Nicki won’t do another interview saying that she’s hard and hood after that.No offense and no shade
Army Of Queen Bee & Aaliyah The Queen Of R&B ! Who Da F*** Want War ???… you are way worse than Malibu Barbie..your hate/despise for nicki is beyond insanity…i seriously believe,s the way you bin acting, that you would physically hurt/try to kill nicki if you get the chance it,s that serious.
@takeover what does kim have to do with this post? NOTHING. But they are always the haters commenting on a nicki post so they will get addressed early on by me! LOL. But i just thought I say black friday mixtape copies still weren’t delivered to some fans which made them angry which they paid almost $10 for! Kim lost the fans she had in the 90’s and early 2000’s. She’s just not doing it as big as nicki anymore. But at least she is TRYING.
Nicki just keeps gaining fans cuz she isn’t only marketable to ONE DEMOGRAPHIC which is black people. Her music is catchy to every race gender and age. So she doesn’t have to stay glued to a hood image if she doesn’t want to. I think every hiphop artist sells out sometimes as a business aspect it doesn’t mean they are any less hood. Yall forgot nicki comes from queens, NY. It’s pretty ghetto over there!
@ARMY
You are so phatetic. shut da f*** up b**** ! 🙂
@I’ma….
I think it’s a little close-minded to assume that people that dislike Nicki are Kim fans. As a matter of fact, a Kim fan came on this post and big Nicki up about her stage presence. It wasn’t until after your comment another Kim fan came on here and went on with the comparison. I just feel more drama could’ve been avoid period. Know what I mean?
Takeover…you are right not everyone who hates on nicki is a kim fan…because there are Kim fans that actually likes Nicki..one of them is my friend…but on the other hand 90% of the times the people knocking nicki is Kim fans….and the Kim fans do the same too implying that anyone hating on kim is automatically a Nicki fan,i am a example of a Nicki fan that don’t hate on Kim…..Kim is doing Kim…Nicki is doing nicki i am here for Nicki that,s all that matter…and back her on here when i can when certain people is talking slick.
@ARYO
Friggin look them up LMAO.
Back to Nicki though, I dunno why she doesn’t just sing lead for the whole time in her songs cos she doesn’t sound offensive for the most part when she does that. The harmonies are iffy. At least we know they’re her vocals on the songs. I think she’s getting better at it.
Her hype girl was friggin annoying and they gotta start bleeping these things after for actual obscenities not just random chunks of the songs.
WHO THE F*** WANT WAR!!!!!!!
Lool sorry I just had to
and Yes the kim clown has stepped her performance game if only she rapped live.
@Skin B**** Bye ! Aint Nobody Talking To Your Planet Bum B**** Ass ! @Y U Mad Really B**** ? Your Irrelevant Delusional Ass Stay Saying Crazy S*** & Cant Type So How Bout You Get It Together ! When Have I EVER Threaten Nicki ???? NEVER ! So WHAT THE F*** ARE YOU TALKING BOUT ???? If I Did Meet Ms.Clown Minaj I Would Ask Her About All The Gimmicks & Buffonary & That Its UNCALLED FOR !
@Yellow Lmfaoo Exactly But I Was Trying To Be Nice @Takeover Nicki Fans Do The Same On Kims Posts & Its Just Never Gonna Stop Because Everyone Has Contradicting Arguments On This Issue
This generation and their lack luster artist………..smh..
flop
The only thing this clown w**** “moves”, is rhe image of blacks, back 200 years!
She can’t sing,can’t rap, and has zero stage presence!
Give it up, you hoodrat clown! You are a f****** disgrace.
I’m black, and if I got the change I would bring this afront to hip-hop, to the gallows, myself!
Anyone who defends this mockery of black culture, is a self hating n*****!
Yeah, I said it!!! And what???!!!
Some of y’all have no education and that’s apparent.
Dumbass post-modern junglebunnies, are what you are!
Read about your history, you dumb f****!!
Lmfaooooo @Terrence He Going Off On Nicki STANS
WAIT is she cursing? How inappropriate!…”this sh** is easy…..this p**sy clean”! Really Sicki Garbaj….paging Lil Kim to the stage ASAP!
And this is what passes for talent and entertainment? When an actual talent puts on a performance you ppl ridicule and complain. I bet you same fools are dripping an drooling over this crap!
Oh and where are the ppl to complain about her inarticulate ravings? *Serious side-eye* at you fools!!
“Dumbass post-modern junglebunnies, are what you are!”
DAMN @Terrence tell us how you really feel!! LOL 🙂
Lmfao! @ Terrence, here-here!!!
It really is rediculous! Chicken wings as jewelry, and turkey drumsticks as stage props!
WTF, is that s***! This chick is so simple.
@ Kim
Hey Gurl! Looks like the truth is being exposed about aunt jemimaj! Lmao!
* it’s
* ridiculous
Hate this iPhone sometimes
@ARMY
:)))
LMAO ^^
You are just mad, i know it hurts ! 🙂
@Misfit Hey Gurllllllll Lol You See Terrence Going Off Lol & I Mean I Have To Speak The Truth About Gimmicks Espeically When Her Fans Act Shes PERFECT When Her Stage Presence Is Questional & She Cant Tell The Difference Between A Fried Turkey Leg & A Piece Of Fried Chicken ! Sad Case !
Damn! @Terrence went clean to the left, lol! But sadly, I agree.
First it was the “nappy headed h***” line
Then, it was her calling us monkeys and throwing bananas at them
Now, this c*** is wearing a chicken wing necklace, smh.
I just can’t take her seriously. Sorry.
Sell-out.
This post isn’t as messy as I thought it was going to be. Thank God 😆
@Skin Im Not Mad Because I Just Remembered That YOUR IRRELEVANT when STANNING FOR NICKSTER
@Army
Ok. Bye w**** ! 🙂
@Skin Your Dissmissed S*** : )
@Army
Ok. so ?it`s your problem ? NO !
So, please go away and shut da f*** up ! 🙂
Your a bad mess, w**** !
@Skin Like I Said Before YOUR DISSMISSED S*** !
Terrence Co-ck sucker what is your problem don’t come on here taking sh-it out on nicki, it,s not her fault you have life hard….wtf is wrong with this b-itch running on here pi-ss like a bat out of hell…seems you woke up with the wrong di-ck in your mouth,get da fu-ck out of here with your rambling i hardly cam make out half of the sh-it it is saying.
Misfit why do i have a strong feeling you are that,fat hippo bi-tch on Utube trying to get it,s rap carrier off the ground with that same name…..anyway haters keep hating free promo that,s all yall going to change….other than that you all an;t changing sh-it.
Okay, so this b**** has a whole setlist now, and the question is, can she entertain for long periods of time? The answer is NO. I got bored so quickly, and the bleeps were just…….too much. I’m sorry. I don’t see it for this girl.
Terrence it,s dumb ignorant black like you, that,s setting blacks back…what the fu-ck you talking about,you need to stop kissing the white mans a-ss thats what you need to stop doing you crab in a bucket piece of sh-it[and stop worrying over some chicken parts],who the fu-ck are you running on here stepping to peeps like anyone is scared to put you back in your place[you rambling over a fu-cking chicken wig you dumb fu-ck],you fu-cking hater,s running on here using the N word,like you can get p!ss more than anyone else.
only a dumb a-ss like you would get p!ss over a fu-cking chicken wig..what if it was a leg are a whole chicken you would jump out a fu-cking 50 story building window……i see the WILLIE LYNCH letter is still working on some of us and you are the prime example of that..you ignorant fu-ck….you talking about uneducated…how a r***** like you came up with that word….too bad you are the ignorant uneducated one on here.
This is a Nicki video…STOP tryna give kim some relevance!! Nicki is the chick performing,doing tours and all over billboard!! Until Lil kim can get back there like she once was DONT bring her up!!!
U can say wat u want about her but she getting money left and right and she the only rap b**** out here doing something………. i pay respect when its due.
@Terrance
LMAOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I really spit my drink out with that last line, thanks.
damn Y.U. Mad…are you mad? like the way you going hard for nicki I would swear she’d have you on a payroll. NO? oh so you’re in the paint for free? Like Nicki..Kim..Eve..whatever whoever..it really aint that serious. the same way you tryna clown mofos on hating/bashing whatever the case maybe, a mofo could say the same thing about you for trying to defend the broad. Shes a grown woman..Let her deal with her own haters. thats what she paid to do. You on the otherhand are dishing out charity chump ass remarks because you’re a fan, and dont get a dime for it. Stop wasting ya time. Now im not knocking her at all, although the chicken necklace is kind of a slap in the face to AA because its STEREOTYPICAL. All the more reason for her NOT to wear it which is the point that everyone else is trying to make. Being that shes in the position that she is, she has to take those kind of things into consideration before the NAACP check her a**.
These comments are a mess. I agree with mannyman tho.
@isimplydgaf So it’s stereotypical that black people like chicken but the line in the song did not reference to a certain race at all?? “I’m not talking poultry when I say this chicken’s fried.” Where in that line was she bashing blacks? WOW. Get help. And nappy headed h***. blah blah blah. Like blacks don’t call their OWN hair nappy? Ppl automatically get offended when a fellow rappers says it. *eye roll*.
iSimplyDGAF w-tf are you talking about…you are knocking me talking about it,s not so serious..then you go and say Chicken is stereotypical ,Chicken don’t represent this black person…so if it represent you it,s all on you….now you talking about NAACP might check Nicki…get da fu-ck out of here do think them people is a dumb a-ss like you,who is going to go ofter someone for a fu-cking Chicken wig..you think them people is some retards who don’t have anything to do and be fling something on the wall in the hopes of something sticking…you are a big walking talking contradiction…so just fall back with you sh-it.
and if i am a little frazzled it,s because i am allergic to ignorance and stupidity…so when people like you step to me with it i try to lock it down asap….and you talking about i am taking up for nicki and i am not getting payed….but let me ask you a question are you getting payed to talk negative cr-ap about her just like the others you are agreeing with?no right…and you calling me out saying i should stop wasting my time defending her…..so didn’t you just waist your time telling me not to do so and some other sh-it…like i said you are a contradiction and a fu-cking hypocrite…sigh.
It was hard listening to this with whole big chunks of songs silent, but from what I did hear it sounded a mess and I hate all this over the top costumes and facial expressions.
AYE…THIS B**** IS BEASTIE..THIS B**** SLAYED KIMS RAG DOLL ASS…I GOTTA QUESTION..Y DNT WE EVER SEE LIL KIM ON AWARD SHOWS OR FESTIVALS LIKE THIS..OR EVEN T.V.????IMEAN DAMN,NICKI REALLY SLAYED HER HUH..LOL..OR MAYBE SHE JUST NEED A NEW CD OR SUMTHIN..BUT WGAF…NICKI MINAJ B******
#ThatsWhyYouMad!!
@THE GREAT LACEFRONCE RETURNS.
Yes. I hope Nicki is not like L. Booger and release more then one solo studio cd..
Also, selling over a million copies, it’s always a win.
Especially , for a Female RAPPER!!!
I almost forgot MISSY ELLIOTT rocked a GARBAGE BAG!!! I don’t have a problem with it. Artists is suppose to be creative and out of the box.
