The battle for the title ‘Queen of Rap’ is hotter than ever: Nicki Minaj announced her return with a new song, directly confronting Cardi B

This is not a joke – Nicki Minaj is back!

The queen of rap is finally back! Nicki Minaj just returned to social media after a 4-month break to reveal that she will release a new song this week! Two songs titled “Chun Li” and “Barbie Tingz” will be released on April 12. Along with this good news, the female rapper also shared the cover photos for her new songs. “Chun Li” shows Nicki in a very sexy outfit like her usual style, combined with a bold Chinese hairstyle – suitable for the name of the song.

In complete contrast to “Chun Li” , Nicki appeared with 4 other girls with masks on their faces and a fashion style from Shakespeare’s time in “Barbie Tingz” . Fans felt extremely excited and curious about the concept the female singer chose for this comeback.

Even though we know that we will soon hear a new song from Nicki, no one knows for sure whether she will actually release an album for this comeback soon or not. Fans have been eagerly waiting for a new album from Nicki for a long time, since the album “The Pinkprint” in 2014. Despite the promises of this new album, Nicki spent the whole of 2017 “raping”. In a total of 16 songs, we can mention Yo Gotti with “Rake It Up” , Lil Uzi Vert with “The Way Life Goes” , Travis Scott with “Krippy Kush Remix” , A$AP Ferg with “Plain Jane ( Remix)” , Migos and Cardi B with “MotorSport” and many more artists.

There have been a lot of rumors about this album of Nicki, but she finally shared seriously about it: “This album is a billion times better than anything “Anaconda” brought. I think this era will definitely be the most memorable and influential memory of my career.”

Nicki hinted at her return when she posted a mysterious message on Twitter in early April, sparking speculation that she was starting the countdown to her return. Nicki posted on Twitter just the number “4” then deleted it and a week later, on April 9, Nicki returned with a new tweet, this time with the number “3” .

In the music industry in general, the release of any new single is usually a sign that a new album is about to be released, but with Nicki, it has to… review. Remember last year, the most successful female rapper of all time released three songs in a row – “No Frauds” (with Drake and Lil Wayne), “Changed It” (with Lil Wayne) and “Regret in Your Tears” . And at the time, many fans assumed that a new album would be released soon. At that time, the album “The Pinkprint” had been released for about two and a half years, so it was understandable why fans had such high hopes.

It’s now a year later, and other than not having an album released yet, Nicki hasn’t even released any information. Surely at this point she has been working on this new album, and the two upcoming singles will be a shot to start this new era.

However, fans did not miss an extremely interesting detail about Nicki Minaj’s comeback when the female rapper decided to tease her new music product just a few days after Cardi B – co-signed. career, junior and also Nicki’s biggest rival at the present time – just released her debut album titled “Invasion of Privacy” .

Some people say that Nicki’s choice of this time is intentional because Cardi is one of the hottest names in the music industry at the moment, especially in the rap/hip-hop world. Cardi is at the peak of her career, having not only just released a new album and received a lot of praise from not only the public but also from experts, officially confirmed her pregnancy and also participated in many shows. Popular shows like Jimmy Fallon’s “Saturday Night Live” and “The Tonight Now.”

The feud and competition between the two female rappers has been rumored for a long time, although both have continuously spoken out to deny this. Recently, Cardi also mentioned this again in an interview before the album’s release. Sharing with Beats 1, Cardi affirmed that the feud between herself and senior Nicki was just “created by the internet” and not something she was interested in: “I really don’t have time for that. Honestly, if you don’t flirt with my man, or if you don’t take my money, I really don’t care.”

Cardi also admitted that she feels pressure from fans about her relationship with Nicki. But she still insists that she has nothing but respect for Nicki: “I told you, she’s a great artist, what do you expect? You just want me to say something.” “What’s bad, right? If you want to do something, don’t get upset and then force your mouth to say something bad, right? I’m not easily seduced.”

More recently, Cardi also shared about the new rap queen title that people have given her: “That’s not something I care about. Really, I just want to create music and be rich. To be a rap queen, you have to reach a certain expectation. You have to reach a certain expectation in terms of lyrics and things like that. I only make songs that make me feel happy, that make me happy. I want to dance, which I really like, so I don’t really care about things like that.”
