It’s nice to live and let live, but when multi-millionaires lodge baseless complaints to the masses via social media, it’s an open invitation for the masses to take them to task. The silliness proclaimed by Nicki Minaj via Twitter due to a slighting by an awards nomination committee turned nasty when she made a few passive aggressive suggestions about a few serious issues. If Nicki can’t understand, perhaps she should consider these 7 reasons why she didn’t score more VMA nominations.
7. Shtick Gets Old Fast
Nicki’s act is old. It’s tired. Already. And how long has she been around? She’s slighting her own talent. Monumental talent. Let’s guess what Nicki will do in her next video, shall we? Show off her faux assets, and get dolled up like Little Miss Makeup? It’s relatively the same thing in every video with varied costumes. Lest we forget, Nicki’s Twitter argument was based on the fact that “Anaconda” didn’t receive a nomination for video of the year. Here’s why: it’s been done before. Nicki has done it before. She’s more talented than riding the snake, and playing to the lowest common denominator. If you’re gonna sample one of the most iconic rap songs of all-time, which featured one of the most iconic videos of the 1990s, at least do something original.
