monsterdino 31,997 Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 The only possible explanation for the existence of “FEFE” is that Minaj, now 35, made a shameless attempt to stay relevant. Based on early numbers, it seems to be working: The song sits at No. 2 on Spotify’s United States Top 50 chart and is expected to debut in the Top 10 of the Hot 100, and the video has accumulated more than 30 million views since Sunday. But it’s embarrassing and revolting to watch Minaj squander her talents alongside a one-note rapper who pled guilty to the use of a child in a sexual performance. The Minaj gallivanting alongside a life-size Skittle with face tattoos in the “FEFE” video is a far cry from the Minaj who tweeted in 2012 that “people who abuse children should be stoned to death in public.” isn’t Minaj’s first hypocritical act during her Queen rollout. She (perhaps inadvertently) shamed sex workers in an Elle profile last month despite blatantly selling sex appeal in her own music and imagery, and she doubled down on her statements after critics called her out on Twitter. The New York Times reported earlier this month that Minaj personally attacked a fan who tweeted a mostly benign criticism of the rapper, emboldening her superfans (or “stans”) to harass the woman incessantly. The same artist who tearfully told Zane Lowe that Cardi B “really, really, really hurt [her] feelings” by not thanking her for her "Motorsport” feature, went out of her way to mock and insult a stranger on the internet for mildly critiquing her work. Minaj likes to tout feminist ideals and play the victim when it fits her narrative, but she resorts to petty bullying tactics upon receiving the slightest criticism. All of these blunders distract from what should be Minaj’s main focus right now: her music. Nobody expects her to tone down her outsize personality or colorful language, nor should they want that. But it’s perfectly reasonable to expect her to show her fans a modicum of decency, not collaborate (and tour) with sexual deviants and, oh, release some good music in the meantime. Minaj’s Queen rollout reeks of desperation and hypocrisy , and her recent output isn’t nearly good enough to distract from her actions, let alone justify them. If she doesn’t chart a corrective course of action soon, she may release Queen only to find her crown still missing.

nikola 4,342 Posted July 25, 2018 Share Posted July 25, 2018 I feel like nothing will help her career... Yeas maybe the songs with other people go to the top 10 on the charts but her songs are still flopping and I don't see album doing that good either I've got an "F" and a "C" and I got a "K" too And the only thing that is missing is a bitch like "U" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
