Media Take Out was invited to attend Nicki Minaj’s Pink Friday concert, and give it a review. We weren’t quite sure what to expect.
Could Nicki bring out fans like she once did? And what about the performances, does she still got it?
Well we’re happy to say …. it was one of the best non-Beyonce concerts that we’ve ever attended.
First off, the crowd was filled and electric. Nicki still has the star power to sell out an entire stadium.
Next the stage sets and Nicki’s outfits were expensive, and over the top – in a good way. Look:
And Nicki’s performances – and the music was just amazing. But anyone that has seen Nicki perform recently, already knew that.
Outside of Beyonce, SZA, and Doja Cat …. we think this is the best concert for your money. Shout out to Nicki and her team for being so hospitable to the Media Take Out family.
Nicki is a Trinidadian-born rapper and singer based in the United States. Often referred to as the “Queen of Rap”, she is known for her musical versatility, animated rap flow, and alter egos. She first gained recognition after releasing three mixtapes between 2007 and 2009.
Minaj’s debut album, Pink Friday (2010), topped the US Billboard 200 chart; its single “Super Bass” reached number three on the US Billboard Hot 100 chart and was later certified diamond by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). Its follow-up, Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded (2012), explored dance-pop and topped the Billboard 200, spawning the hit single “Starships”.
Her next album, The Pinkprint (2014), marked a return to her hip hop roots. Its single “Anaconda” peaked at number two on the Hot 100 and became the first music video by a solo female rapper to reach one billion views on YouTube. Her 2019 collaboration with Karol G, “Tusa”, became the longest-running number-one single on the Argentina Hot 100 chart. She achieved her first two US number-one singles in 2020 with the collaborations “Say So (Remix)” with Doja Cat and “Trollz” with 6ix9ine. In 2022, she earned her first solo number one on the Hot 100 with “Super Freaky Girl”, the lead single from her fifth album, Pink Friday 2 (2023), which also debuted atop the Billboard 200.
