Well I finally got to watch this videoabout a month ago after everyone kept talking about it. A lot of people say it was horrible while others said that Nicki Minaj put a lot of thought into this video. In my opinion I feel that most people expected more from Nicki Minaj, which is why most people I talked to said that it was a waste of their life watching that video. I’m not going to lie, I did expect more from her because she seems like a person who does very creative things with her music and the videos that goes a long with it, like massive attack. So, I understand why people say it was a waste of their time. I don’t mean to be rude or seem as if I’m putting attacking her (Because I kind of respect her in a way, even though some of the stuff she does is like -ehh) but when you claim that your style and how you do things is different from the rest and people have seen that and respect that; you kind of have to do what you say and step your cookies up. You’re going to have to please the people and give them what they want. I’m also going to admit that I don’t know much about Nicki Minaj, I just heard of her because people were talking about her video. I really don’t listen to her music but since people have a lot of problems with her and what she represents I wanted to do research. I, personally, think the video is creative because you don’t see music videos like this at all anymore. Nicki Minaj put a story behind her music video, something that most entertainers don’t do. Compared to everyone else in the music industry, Nicki Minaj did get creative and I applaud that. On top of that, you guys have to admit she had grown a lot in her music and her image by doing this video. Nicki Minaj didn’t expose her body like she usually does and I don’t recall her using vuglar language, like she’s known for doing. Think about it like this: When you listen to a song you already envision how the music video might look. You picture animation and creativity happening in each scene but when you see the actual music video it’s a plain background with the entertainer moving around their hand and bouncing. Then there’s little screen clippings of them doing somthing dumb. This is the time where you should be made that you saw something like this. What type of crap is that! Most of the time the video has nothing to do with the song. Maybe the entertainers don’t have enough money to do anything new. I don’t know but maybe this is just how I view it.
