Nicki Minaj Retires Sexy Image! (Why?)
Nicki Minaj of Lil Wayne’s Young Money Crew is changing her image and scaling back on the raunchy, overtly sexual mantra that has carried her thus far.
Fresh off the Iron Music Tour with Wayne, Nicki Minaj said she is toning it down and focusing more on her rapping/singing style.
The rapper affirmed she won’t present ass much of the in-your-face sexiness as she has in prior years.
“Nicki Minaj is not going to be about sex appeal. I’m always gonna be sexy,” Minaj told AllHipHop.com, “I’m a bad b***h.”
The Jamaica, New York native, who seemed heavily influenced by Lil Kim, said she won’t emulate her female counterparts.
“It’s okay to be sexy but you have to also balance that with your music that’s what I learned and that’s what I’m doing. I’m not the next anybody, I’m the new Nicki Minaj,” she said.
Nicki Minaj recently released a new mixtape called Beam Me Up Scotty.
She’s also one of our Urban Daily ‘Noisemakers’ – check her out below:

Eve is my favorite rapper, but I still think it’s good to show that you are a diverse person and that means showing all sides of yourself. It’s just like when you wake up everyday you not going to put on the same clothes everyday you going to change it up a little, but when you do go all the way left you want your audience to understand the move you made for what it is and that’s a part of your creativity, expression, or style. I just got one word for Mrs. M…Eve
Regardless what she does …she is a bad chick! hands down.
thats good. i got tired of seein another talented black female on the tv wit her ass and cooter all out. its cool to be sexy but keep it classy.
I applaud Nicki for not buying into the oversexualized image so many female rappers adopt today. Why do female MCs feel like they have to be the original promiscuous girl, or be a “pitbull in a skirt” like early Eve? Just be you, and let your talent speak for itself.
Go head Nicki do you mami!! I been a fan for awhile now and with or without her image I still thing she is a good rapper/singer! On another note, she is very sexy though.
LMFAO@HOW THESE ARTIST’S REALLY THINK WE GIVE A FUUCK……I MEAN MA 4REAL ….OK LETS JUST SAY U DO TONE IT DOWN….PEOPLE STILL GONE JUDGE U REATHER U TONE IT DOWN OR NOT…..SO DOES IT REALLY MATTER?…..UMMMMM…NO…IT REALLY DOESNT
Because the sexxxy “I can suck the biggest dick, I have the fattest p***y and I got the biggest titties” can only get you noticed, and now that we know mami’s name ad that she’s a beat on the beat! She gonna hit us hard!
I love niki she raw and she is really talented, her spit game is like any male out now… gotta wear clothes and be marketable to sell records… that SEX s**t is for underground she big but she bout to blow!
YALL KEEP YA EYE AND EAR ON HER!!!
IM READY FOR THIS S**T!!!
Shouting “YUNG MOOLAH” from da boot! NIKI I see you!!!
Lol
THATZ GOOD THAT NICKI DOES’NT WANT 2 FOLLOW IN THE FOOTSTEPS OF OTHERZ BY SHOWING HER AZZ ALL THE TIME.
NICKI CAN REALLY RAP. ITZ NOT TOO MANY FEMALE RAPPERS THAT CAN FLOW LIKE HER. SHAWNNA, RASHEEDA, MIA X, KHIA, AND GANGSTA BOO CAN FLOW TOO.
I don’t blame her. I think she was thinking the same way Camillionaire and Mike Jones were thinking when they stopped wearing their grills. They wanted people to hear what they had to say, and not be distracted by everything else that was going on with their appearance. I think she wants the same thing. For people to listen to what she has to say and not be distracted by her sex appeal. Nicki Minaj is one of my favorite female rappers. I can relate to alot of the deep stuff she talks about. A lot of people underestimate her, and I can’t wait for her to come out with an album and surprise the hell out of everyone!!! Keep doing what you do Nicki, I’ll always be in your corner!!!
