Nicki Minaj has constantly happily repped her roots, combining her pride for New York City with her love for her home nation, Trinidadian and Tobago. Throughout a current TikTok Live session, the Queens rap artist exposed some unexpected details about her present migration status.
“I’m not a resident of America. Isn’t that insane?” she stated throughout the stream. The Pink Friday developer then explored how she feels she is worthy of citizenship due to just how much she has actually added to the United States throughout the years.
“I was born upon a lovely island called Trinidad and Tobago. I’ve been in the States for numerous years. You would believe that with the countless dollars that I’ve paid in taxes to this nation that I would have been offered an honorary citizenship lots of, lots of, lots of countless years earlier.”
The expose might have come to a shock to lots of individuals, this isn’t the very first time Nicki has actually spoken on the matter. Back in 2018, the “Everybody” host opened on Instagram about her childhood while promoting for immigrant rights.
“I concerned this nation as an unlawful immigrant at 5 years of ages. I can’t think of the scary of remaining in an unusual location and having my moms and dads removed away from me at the age of 5. This is so frightening to me. Please stop this. Can you attempt to think of the fear & & panic these kids feel today? Not understanding if their moms and dads are dead or alive, if they’ll ever see them once again,” she composed.
In music-related news, Minaj dropped off her last complete body of work, Pink Friday 2, in December 2023. The task housed hits like “Red Ruby Da Sleeze” and “Needle” while boasting functions from Drake, J. Cole, Lil Wayne, Tate Kobang, Lil Uzi Vert, and plenty others. Most just recently, she exposed to her fans that rather of following up with the assured luxurious edition of the task, she’s preparing to drop Pink Friday 3.
“Instead of doing a DELUXE to Pink Friday 2, I’ve chosen to do a brand name brand-new album,” she composed. “I’ll still include brand-new tunes like #Mamita & & [The ‘anxiety’ song] for the rest of the trip tho … and I’ll reveal the brand-new date within the next couple weeks.”
“The brand-new music is simply too excellent to be gotten rid of on a luxurious album,” she continued. “Last night, the tunes I tape-recorded were simply way too renowned. I enjoy you guys a lot. You understand that. I understand you do. I’ll still provide you something leading up to the statement,
