Rapper and Young Money artist, Nikki Minaj, took some time out to address her ‘Haters’. Why she has so many haters is beyond me. For years, all everyone talked about was how there were no more chicks in hip hop … and then the minute we get one, it’s time to turn on her. NEway, this is what Nikki had to say on the topic. She gets it … but I don’t she should stop doing her thing. After all, you can’t please everybody… but you can die trying…
“I saw something interesting today online and I retweeted it. It said “To haters, I’m not your enemy, I’m your hero”. Cheer up. You should be happy I’m here. I’m showing you b*tches how to do it”…but I do get more love than hate.
When people see there is one person getting shine it makes them feel unhappy with themselves, the small minded people feel unhappy. The intelligent girls take the things that they like from me and my journey and apply it to their journey. If I had it my way that’s what they’d all do.”
“Everyone is not going to like Nicki Minaj. Everyone’s not going to like the way I look or what I do but I think if you’re smart you’d take from me and figure out why everyone is talking about me. I don’t think they know how to express that so they express it anger, jealousy and hatred and then that consumes them. And I’m still here”
I know what people want from me… but that’s not always what I want to do but I don’t want to lose them in the process. I just did something called “Sh*ting On ‘Em.” It’s real hood, its old Nicki. I just want to balance it.
It makes me feel guilty because I know how I am with my 12-year old brother, very strict. Every now and then I feel like I gotta censor it but censoring it too much I wouldn’t be Nicki Minaj. I think a part of what they like is I’m the naughty girl.
The core people I was rapping to I wasn’t expecting them to be young. So all the stuff I was saying…if I was to do a show and clean up and cater to both sides of the spectrum, I don’t even know how I [would] make that happen.”
