From the Wonderland<\/em> archive: we spoke to the all-conquering Pink Lady as she released her second album, Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\"Nicki<\/a><\/p>\n

This interview first appeared in Issue 29 of Wonderland, Feb\/March 2012.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Nicki Minaj\u2019s people really, really don\u2019t want me to ask her about her bottom. Or about her feud with Lil\u2019 Kim. They are so worried about these topics that they text, email and call to remind me not to talk about them. But, intriguing as her booty and her beef are, happily there are even more mind-boggling things to ask Minaj about. Specifically, how over the last year she\u2019s become one of the most famous women in the world. The kind of famous, in fact, that \u2013 aha \u2013 demands outrageously lengthy, luxurious and diva-ishly precise riders on photoshoots for magazines, it turns out.<\/p>\n

With visions of the specifically demanded silverware being insufficiently polished, or the waffles being not quite well-cooked enough, I\u2019m almost scared to ask her how the shoot went. But she pronounces it \u201cone of my favourite shoots I\u2019ve ever done \u2013 I swear, for real\u201d and enthuses about the bathing suit shots in particular.<\/p>\n

Nonetheless, it\u2019s clear she likes to be in charge in this sort of situation. \u201cYeah, I\u2019m definitely a control freak.\u201d But that\u2019s a good thing? \u201cAbsolutely! You gotta take control of your career and your image \u2013 who else should take control of it, right?\u201d<\/p>\n

As Minaj has shot to superstardom, the former seems increasingly inseparable from the latter. This isn\u2019t to disparage her talent \u2013 none of us are ever going to forget her chorus on Kanye\u2019s ‘Monster’ in a hurry, nor her platinum-certified debut album Pink Friday \u2013 but her pinkified, eye-popping, cartoonish outrageousness, as well as the whole Minaj world of Barbz and Ken-Barbz and alter-egos seem to be spiralling into infinity, making her unique position as a Woman in Hip-Hop ever more curious. I interviewed Minaj back in 2010, just before Pink Friday was released. Back then she gave the impression of being just a little bit freaked out by how huge she was about to become. Right now, before the release of album number two, she only wants to get bigger and bigger.<\/p>\n

Did your last year pan out how you wanted?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Absolutely. I could not have asked for anything more than what\u2019s happened. It was a slow build but it just kind of exploded at the end of the cycle and I\u2019m really thankful for it. I feel now I have a grasp of who I am, more so than two years ago.<\/p>\n

Wow! When we first met I was amazed at how much of a sense of self you had already.<\/strong><\/p>\n

There\u2019s definitely a lot more!<\/p>\n

In what ways?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Well, when I get in the studio now I don\u2019t second guess myself like I used to. There were so many things on this album that I just did in one take and I left it. There were so many things that I just freestyled. I felt like my fans totally get it now \u2013 they totally get me and they\u2019re the only ones that matter. I have a certain connection with them, a certain sense of humour with them that only they understand. A lot of the things I recorded have that same sense of humour. I think that when you hear it you\u2019ll definitely hear a shift in confidence and you\u2019ll hear a lot more humour.<\/p>\n

Does that mean more alter-egos?\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Yes! There\u2019s one that\u2019s going to be very famous and that\u2019s Saint John Paul The Third. And he\u2019s on a song called \u201cRoman Holiday\u201d and he meets Roman [Zolanski, one of Minaj\u2019s alter egos] and he\u2019s the member of a choir and he basically tries to rehabilitate Roman along with Martha.<\/p>\n

Where do these people come from? Does it start with the voice?<\/strong><\/p>\n

They usually come into being with a voice and then I name them and then I sort of try to create who this person is in relation to my other characters. It just kind of becomes one weird maze!<\/p>\n

Has the fact that lots of your fans are really young surprised you?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Yeah, it did surprise me. But when the album came out I didn\u2019t really have an idea of who my core was going to be, I just went along and I was just having a good time. But now that I see the fans are very young at times… it\u2019s a lot of the reason why I censored myself on the first album \u2013 I felt that I had to. There\u2019s going to be a clean version of every explicit song that I put out and if a parent wants to get it they can get the clean version and the kids can still have it on.<\/p>\n

Do you think about having kids of your own?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Of couuuuuurse! Oh my God. I\u2019m like, already a mother in my head. I loooove, love children. I don\u2019t know why. But children make me very happy. Speaking to children you can learn some of the most fascinating things in a very simple and honest way. It\u2019s one of my favourite things to do, is speak to children; I just really love how they can express them- selves without having gone to college and having life experience.They\u2019re just able to look at things in a way that just kind of puts everything into perspective. And it\u2019s just an honest reaction.You won\u2019t get a thought-out reaction and that\u2019s what I love.<\/p>\n

You surprised Sophia Grace, the toddler who became a viral hit after her cover of \u201cSuper Bass\u201d, on the Ellen show. That must have been a 2011 highlight?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I definitely think the Ellen DeGeneres moment was amazing. I love children and I have a weird connection to children, so to see a little kid that was from another country put out my rap and sing my song with this amazing confidence and tenacity… wow. I never had any idea that it would be such a big deal, to be completely honest. I just thought, you know, we\u2019ll make a little girl\u2019s day and that will be it. I had no idea it was going to become such a huge phenomenon the way it did.<\/p>\n

How do you deal with this level of fame? What keeps you sane?<\/strong><\/p>\n

It\u2019s crazy because the way I see myself, I feel like I experience a personal calm, you know, a personal peace that I\u2019ve just been able to gravitate to recently. But I don\u2019t really look at myself as a big star, to be completely honest and maybe this has a lot to do with me coming up on the underground circuit. But I always feel like, oh my God, I still have so much to do, I still have so much work to do and so I guess that makes me continue to be hungry. I don\u2019t vacation, I don\u2019t really party, because I\u2019m always feeling like I have to get to that finish line. I just feel this weird thing inside of me that keeps on saying: \u201cYou haven\u2019t done enough, you have to give more, you have to do more.\u201d So I guess maybe I won\u2019t see the success until ten years from now, you know? I\u2019ve always been like that though. I\u2019m kind of always in the future thinking, \u2018well what needs to be done now?\u2019<\/p>\n

So do you ever allow yourself to take a little moment to feel proud or excited?<\/strong><\/p>\n

No. It\u2019s kind of sad. I really don\u2019t. I really, really don\u2019t. I just don\u2019t know, it\u2019s not in my genetic right now… because to me, when I stop, when I\u2019ve stopped in the past and kind of just lived in the moment then that\u2019s when I got the rug pulled from under me. So now it\u2019s like you can\u2019t, you can\u2019t let up.<\/p>\n

Is the Nicki who goes home and takes her make-up off at the end of the day a very different person from the on-stage Nicki?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Oh they\u2019re definitely two completely different people. Obviously what I would wear at home is not what I would wear up on stage and I think, when I\u2019m at home it\u2019s a way more introspective character and I think the person people see on stage is anything but.<\/p>\n

I find it hard to imagine you doing normal, boring things…<\/strong><\/p>\n

Well, I watch a lot of Judge Judy. And I watch a lot of Forensic Files. And I cook \u2013 I cook spaghetti really, really good; I cook macaroni and cheese really, really good; I cook chicken really, really good.<\/p>\n

What\u2019s the best thing you\u2019ve bought yourself?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I want to hear that you\u2019re enjoying your wealth! Well probably my most Barbalicious thing is my pink Bentley. But it\u2019s kind of crazy because I\u2019ve also been wearing this vintage Barbie jacket and my Bar- bie chain so I\u2019m completely whoring myself out right now on Barbie.<\/p>\n

And of course you had your own Barbie made of you, right?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Yesss! Oh my goodness, yes. That is every girl\u2019s dream. That\u2019s like: wow, big deal. It\u2019s a one-of-a-kind doll. I was just so honoured to do something with Mattel. I mean, they change everyone\u2019s life. They are a staple of our culture. Barbie gets a lot of love but she also gets a lot of shit.<\/p>\n

\"NIcki<\/a><\/p>\n

How would you come to her defense?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I feel like Barbie is great because it doesn\u2019t only focus on beauty \u2013 you have Barbies that work, they have tons of different jobs now. And they come in different shades, which I love, and different hairstyles. So I think that they\u2019ve gotten to the point where they\u2019re making girls feel like it\u2019s OK not to look like or be like the traditional Barbie. Now in terms of a body image, even male action figure dolls are cut up more than the average man \u2013 it\u2019s just how people make dolls!<\/p>\n

\"Nicki<\/a><\/p>\n

Now, I know you love London…<\/strong><\/p>\n

I was born in London in my past life, no one can tell me different. I probably was like a queen in London, I was probably the people\u2019s queen that fought for lives… and I probably started off as a maid and then was just, like, really revolutionary and moved all my Barbz into the big queen mansion. That sounds about right to me.<\/p>\n

Have you had much time off while you\u2019re there?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Well this time when I come back I\u2019m going to have more of a moment. I didn\u2019t really get to do any sightseeing. The best part when I came this last time was the fact that the Barbz waited outside the hotel and were rapping songs and I could hear them and I really fed off that energy, I really appreciated that love. It will forever be the place where I got the warmest welcome in my career.<\/p>\n

What\u2019s the craziest thing a fan has ever done?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Well I think the most extreme thing is when I see people with tattoos of my name or my face. I have this weird connection to them because that\u2019s some real over-the-top, passionate love for someone. No matter how many times I see it, it never gets old to me, I always do a double take and I\u2019m always in shock.<\/p>\n

Anyone you\u2019d consider getting a tattoo of?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Jada Pinkett. I was so obsessed with her. It\u2019s so ironic how the world works because I had been obsessed with Jada Pinkett and then ten or 15 years later, whatever it is, I\u2019m doing a song with her daughter. Who would have known!?<\/p>\n

You must have had a lot of who-would-have-known moments by now \u2013 have you got used to them?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I really haven\u2019t gotten used to anything at this point. It\u2019s happening so quickly. Why do you think you have had such huge success \u2013 what is it about you and your music do you think?You know what, I have to say that my Barbz are so passionate that it\u2019s beyond the music \u2013 it\u2019s more about a culture and a movement. My movement is sort of larger than life, because of my fans. They\u2019re so passionate and they don\u2019t let up. They\u2019re amazing people and they really believe in me.<\/p>\n

When you have a gang of people that really, really believe in you and they\u2019re really, really out there spreading the word it\u2019s almost impossible to lose because all you have to do is follow up with music that people can understand and feel and there you have it. You know, two years ago when I was doing interviews before I was famous, I was saying I don\u2019t want to be boxed in. When this album comes out they definitely won\u2019t know what kind of category to put me in.<\/p>\n
