It's a great feeling to not box yourself into anyone’s limitations or ideas or judgments. - Nicki Minaj

I love that people never know what Nicki they are going to get on a particular song. I like bringing out a different side.

Little girls can aspire to be anything, and that’s all I want people to see. Whether you follow Nicki Minaj's blueprint or not, just don’t be afraid to experiment and don’t allow people to knock your hustle just ’cause it ain’t something that you’re used to seeing. ... I like that I'm there because it gives little girls in Southside Jamaica, Queens, or South Africa or Brazil a moment to say, ‘Oh wait, I can be a female rapper!’ Yes, you really can.

Women need to have a perspective. If we’re out here saying that we’re so confident, and we’re so this and so that, but we don’t even trust ourselves to write down our own thoughts and spit it on a beat? It just doesn’t add up.
