Nicki Minaj Quotes From XXL
Clearly there’s an opening, because females in hip-hop come so far and few between. But the winners make an open lane out of a closed lane. The winners just say, “I am” and it happens, and they don’t do a lot of thinking and guessing and planning about what they can do, they just do it. And that’s kinda like how I am.- Nicki Minaj
I just kinda do what I feel. I never knew what lane I would fill, [or that] I would fill a lane at all. I didn’t even really contemplate that far down the road. I just started having fun, and a lot of that came from me seeing Wayne dare to be different, and I started feeling like I can be a multifaceted rapper. I don’t have to be a one-dimensional female rapper. Once I put that in perspective, it was like everything just got easier for me, because I no longer wanted to fit in anybody’s box... I just wanted to be Nicki.- Nicki Minaj
