Miss Minaj recently took to the popular social network service, twitter, to vent about the state of black radio. She insisted that they spend more time educating people the right way, instead of promoting rumors and sensationalizing things found on blogs and gossip sites. She most certainly has a good point, I guess it’s up to the radio stations to do things right, I guess we’ll see if they take heed to her wise words.

Apparently the beef between female MC’s, Lil Kim & Nicki Minaj, is far from over. The Queen Bee casted a Nicki Minaj look-alike in her new video for her track “Clap Clap I Black Friday.” It will be interesting to see in what capacity the Nicki Minaj impersonator will used in Lil Kim’s video, is this beef going to go on forever or do you think these two will stop cat fighting and squash this silliness? Only time will tell I guess…

Nicki Minaj’s career has been going strong and it continues with the announcement of her face on V Magazine. The sexy, yet tasteful cover is definitely going to be of the fans delight when they see the latest edition. Announced that she was on the cover of the magazine, Nicki blasted out the image of the magazine to friends across the world this morning.
Taking away the props and just sharing a moment, the entertainer looks right into the camera. No doubt the other poses we have seen of the star were all themed; this one had just simplicity to it like no other. The pose had Nicki’s eyes directly looking into the camera and sharing a moment.

The cover girl definitely had the cover piece. The article about Nicki Minaj is entitled ‘A Birth of a Star.’ The magazine will be on newsstands later this month.

Nicki is sure living the life and earlier today, she hit up Ellen and performed her latest single, “Moment 4 Life”. We’re sure Ellen enjoyed staring at Nikki just as much as we did.
