Nicki Minaj Appreciation

I was sitting on the couch this morning and came upon a Nicki Minaj movie, so i started watching it. The truth is that (before I had watched this) I never really thought much of her, just that she is another rapper that uses a an excessive amount of cuss words in her songs. After i saw a portion of the movie though, I had a totally different perspective on her. If you really listen to a rappers songs, most of the time they speak so much truth. What you hardly realize though is the amount of pain a lot of artists have to go through to really make a song that digs deep. They not only have to go through a a situation to be furmilur with it, but they have to relive it, everywhere. In the recording studio, every time they preform it, when they write it! So sure they might be 3 minute songs that we enjoy listening to whenever we have something in our lives that can relate or whenever we need a good cry, but not for these artists. Nicki Minaj in particular.

In her movie, Minaj pointed out the fact that her new and recent album she put out caused a huge a roller coaster of emotions in her life. What's beautiful about this album as a whole is that she stated that when making the tracks, she never really meant for it to turn out to be such an emotional spin, it just ended up that way. She not only said that, nut she sort of took her viewers on a little bit of a journey throughout her life, taking the back to her old town and old friends. Just in that it's really easy to realize that these songs aren'e just a way to entertain fans, it's a way to tell her story in the most plausible way possible.

All of this in itself really brought out the true meaning behind not only Nicki Minaj's music, but every singer/song writer out there. Not only that, but it teaches you just how much these people (ordinary, just like us) have to give up to follow their dreams. It's easier to see it in writing, but to get a glimpse of what it really is in a movie, is heartbreaking. All in all all of these key points made me really earn respect not only for Minaj, but every other singer that makes sacrifices and gives up so much to entertain people al over the world.
