    @ cheetah254, Thats right tell em, comments like that come from people that no nothing.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/BlackCasper2001/ BlackCasper2001

    The name Onika Maraj isn’t ghetto. Now, Shatwanda or Porshay is. I know what I’m sayin’ because I grew up around chicks with names like those two I named.

    She looks decent in her high skool pics….WTF happened?

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/ASLgeek/ ASLgeek

    Yea that is def not a pic of Drake when he was in high school. It may be late middle school but not HS. Maybe that’s just one of those pages where you can put an older childhood photo of you. Hell that pic looks like even before Degrassi got started.

    Nikki Minaj looks different. She actually looks rather wholesome and innocent in the yearbook photo. Don’t think I would recognize her without the lip pout though.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/Gemini510/ Gemini510

    To all of you saying that’s not Drake in high school, OBVIOUSLY he is because the book says “High School: Forest Hill C.I.”. Maybe he was a freshman or something. But peep out the description of the chick above Drake, lol. This girl used to eat dog treats and needs to learn how to spell, WOW.

    Nikki Minaj looked decent, back then….

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/CHINKYDIAMONDII/ CHINKYDIAMONDII

    Niki is cute and her name is ethnic not ghetto (that was a ghetto comment because its obvious). Drake looks like a kid…oh yea he was a kid. We all go through that stage in life, people let’s not start acting brand new…there must be a lot of glass shattering with all the stones being thrown in glass houses. SMH

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/RoseThrn82/ RoseThrn82

    Nicki is pretty, but I’m not into her music. Kris_87, I suggest you read Ghetto Nation by Cora Daniel’s. You could only benefit from it. The name Onika has been around longer than the word “Ghetto” has been used in the context that you are throwing around. Onika is actually my name and it is BEAUTIFUL, it means Change as in make a difference. It’s of African origin as someone has already mentioned, and it even has its own story (an old African fable) to compliment it. It’s very popular in the Caribbean (especially with the Trini’s as Nicki is) and parts of South America. My South American father gave it to me…………. On another note for some reason I expected drake to look like that in the past… I don’t know why…

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/perfectdark41/ perfectdark41

    About the original name for Nicki Minaj… The first name Onika is obviously African, probably representative of her Afro-Caribbean heritage and the surname Maraj is definitely of East Indian origin. Niki Minage is,it seems,based or her original name, either of Afro-Caribbean or African American and East Indian descent or vice versa, meaning that the parent of East Indian descent could be from the Caribbean while the other parent could be of African American descent.Nothing ghetto about that name.

    Nicki Minaj was cute in high school and she always look like she always had that look about her. Drake on the other hand, was one of those boys that you didn’t think exist. He was a nerd and looks shy. As a grown man, time has definitely been on his side. He is a very attractive young man and sexy. He got me in a zone.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/th3livinmatrix/ th3livinmatrix

    TIME OUT!!! Drake’s real name is Aubrey???? LMFAO!!! WHOOO THAT’S CLASSIC!!! U CAN’T TELL ME HE AIN’T A FRUIT AND HIS MAMA DIDN’T MAKE IT NO BETTER AUBREY HAHA!!!! but on a lighter note yea nuthin wrong wit the name Onika, it’s African, and Maraj sounds xotic, but we all know what a Mirage is so she changed it to Minaj lol which isn’t any better but it doesn’t mean she’s fake lol although Mirage woulda been unique, but she was pretty then and she’s pretty now

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/MissTigg117/ MissTigg117

    where are yall gettin that ‘Onika’ is an african name? LMAO, anything different and black folk hollerin its african! That ain’t african you silly mofos, I went to Jr. High with two girls named Onika and one was a white girl!

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/tdoubleyou/ tdoubleyou

    MissTigg117, it doesn’t matter if you know a white girl with the name Onika…it’s still a name of African origin. Just do a little googling or find a name book before you go clowning Black folk for being silly. Just google “Onika + origin” and go to the first link which is a baby name site. It’s generally a male name meaning warrior. My name has a Hebrew ogigin but guess what??? I’m Black…but it doesn’t change that it’s a Hebrew name.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/longstrox/ longstrox

    Onika Maraj is her real name. She is part East indian and part black.(a dougla is what we call that mix in Trinidad and Tobago.. very beautiful indeed)
    She was born in San Fernando Trinidad (southern Caribbean)
    That is the town I am from. And concerning the name, Onika is a VERY common name in Trinidad. Its origins are not certain but there are several people on here referring to it as “white” which it is not. Im pround of Nikki….stop Hating!

    I am not surprised at Drake photo and bio at all.Nicki looks the same,just more makeup.Anywho,It’s 2011,time to make FREE money online.It’s a sad fact. But…some people can’t handle the thought of thousands of dollars pouring into their bank accounts every week.And when they imagine tens of thousands slam into their account on a monthly basis… they almost pass out.If $10,000 a month makes you feel QUEASY.It may be that you just can’t handle the cash.Because that kind of money changes lives.And some folks aren’t ready for that change.Are you one of these people? Time to find out.. http://dld.bz/Free-Money-Formula
