+420 It's an absolute travesty that The New York Times named Nicki Minaj the most influential rapper of all time, amirite?

Link to wherever that was stated? If it's true, I'mma go to their headquarters and beat the crap outta them with 2pac, Jay-Z, Eminem and MC Hammer.

I don't have a link, I heard it on the radio.

Ugh... I think my soul just died. Nicki Minaj is one of the worst rappers of all time. Sure, occasionally her songs have nice beats, but you learn nothing by sitting down and listening to he album. She's also incredibly misogynistic, and is setting her fans (young girls) up for failure.

who the hell is that?

She can rap okay, even if her songs suck. But who in the world has she influenced? She's annoying as all hell and there are plenty of others who don't just rap about bs.

She just shitted on em.

She was called the most influential *female* rapper of all time

Thats not what I heard on the radio. And this says "the influential leader of hip-hop." http://www.nytimes.com/2012/04/01/arts/music/nicki-minaj-is-the-influential-leader-of-hip-hop.html?pagewanted=all

Uh, no it doesn't? I ctrl+f'd "influential" and the only result was "most influential female rapper of all time."

Above the address bar on my iPod, that's what it says.

Interesting. That's what the URL says but it's not what the title or article says.

Huh...this is a mystery. Maybe you're right and they named her most influential female rapper, but that's not what I heard on the radio. That would make a lot more sense, though.

Well, I don't have much respect for either the NYT or the radio as a proper news source...so I don't really care either way lol

Haha true. Are you anonymous for a reason or do you just not have an account? Your replies come in a timely manner, so I assume you do have an account.

"This hard and complex work has paid off: when she releases her second album, “Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded,” this week, it will be as the most influential female rapper of all time." -speechless-

I'm gonna go ahead and guess that the author of that article is a guest writer who is formally employed at nicki minaj's label

Even if so, there are better more influential female rappers. Missy elliott for starters. She basically paved the way

I'm so tired of hate I think I might explode. Just shut up.

by Anonymous 11 years ago

It's ironic because all Nicki Minaj raps about is hating bitches

by Anonymous 11 years ago

Ok Anonymous! Oh, and besides...not every song is like that. Plus I didn't even say I even liked her.

by Anonymous 11 years ago

If you don't like her, then how do you know what she talks about in every song?

by Anonymous 11 years ago

First, it's possible to mot like her, but to like some of her songs. Second, I never said I didn't like her.

by Anonymous 11 years ago

You just said you hated her...

by Anonymous 11 years ago

Honestly, I have no clue where you got that idea. Find me where I said "I hate Nicki Minaj" because I can't.

by Anonymous 11 years ago

Why don't you just shut up and stop hating.

by Anonymous 11 years ago

Oh, is that you giving up? Because it sounds alot like you want me to shut up because you know you're losing.

I've done some more research and it looks like I was wrong, they called her the most influential female rapper. But still...
