32. Only
(Nicki Minaj feat. Lil Wayne, Chris Brown & Drake)
2014 - The Pinkprint

Favourite lyrics:
"Yo, I never f***ed Wayne, I never f***ed Drake
On my life, man, f***'s sake
If I did I'd Minaj wid' him and let 'em eat my ass like a cupcake"




This is another case of me feeling a bit snakey putting this a bit low because I didn't stop playing it when it was first released (so much so, it's still my most played Nicki track on last.fm despite clearly being far from my favourite track of hers). I think I was just really hyped for more Nicki at the time (I played Bed of Lies LOTS too and that didn't even make this countdown ohmy.gif) and once the album was released, I ended up returning to this less in favour of listening to some of the more melodic tracks on the album. This still goes in hard and the rap verses are great so I probably should go back to it more often really.

31. No Love (Remix)
(August Alsina feat. Nicki Minaj)
2014 - Testimony

Favourite lyrics:
"You can’t treat me like you treat them
Yes, I am the crème de la crème
Yes, I am from one to ten, ten"




Another one of Nicki's more urban collaborations which unfortunately didn't even do great in the US charts (only peaking at #69 sad.gif) so isn't all that well known really. It's another nice example of Nicki rapping and singing really well in one song and it's a shame she doesn't get a slighter longer part in this remix but August Alsina does a great job on the rest of the song too and the chorus is so slick. I listen to this quite often still and it's a shame it's pretty unknown in comparison to some other songs in her discography (it has a pretty decent amount of YouTube views though so that's a good thing!) sad.gif

SO FAR...
60. Give Me All Your Luvin' (Madonna feat. Nicki Minaj and M.I.A.)

really like the rapping on 'Only' so it's no wonder it became one of her biggest hits in the US, I do think it would benefit from a less slow and repetitive beat and Lil Wayne's verse taken out though.

I liked 'Freedom' a fair bit at the time but I don't go back to it much myself.

Yeah, it definitely seems more suited to the US but I was glad it was a minor hit here too. Wayne's verse is probably my least favourite too but I do think it works with the rest of the track.

I was at the height of my Nicki stanning at the time so I loved it but I agree that it's not one I go back to much either.

Thanks for commenting, Dan heart.gif

30. Dance (A$$) Remix
(Big Sean feat. Nicki Minaj)
2011 - Finally Famous

Favourite lyrics:
"Wobbledy wobble, wo-wo-wobble, wobbin'
Ass so fat, all these bitches' pussies is throbbin'"




Objectively, this is probably one of the worst produced/made songs of Nicki's as it is pretty much a massive mess (probably why it came so low in the Nicki rate sad.gif) but it is the DEFINITION of party anthem and it always goes OFF when you've got a few shots in you laugh.gif I revisit this loads still and just get my life to how much of a bop it is and that's why it's surprisingly high on my countdown laugh.gif

29. Save Me
Nicki Minaj
2010 - Pink Friday

Favourite lyrics:
"This time won't you save me
Baby I can feel myself givin up"




Save Me has always been one of my highlights on Pink Friday and a track that still sounds lovely to this day. The lyrics are pretty simple and repetitive too but they work really well and it's nice to hear Nicki on more reflective tracks from time to time. There are still a few Pink Friday tracks to come but this remains a firm favourite of mine seven years later.

28. Dear Old Nicki
Nicki Minaj
2010 - Pink Friday

Favourite lyrics:
"But you was underground, and I was mainstream
I live the life now, that we would daydream
My only wish is you come enjoy it with me"



"
This track is about the "death" of one of Nicki's alter egos, Nicki Lewinsky, and discusses how she dropped the character once she fully broke through to the mainstream with many people saying they missed the "Old Nicki" and wanted her to come back. It's interesting to see Nicki discuss how her and her characters changed since she became a global superstar and I've always thought this was a massive highlight on Pink Friday so is deserving of a high placing here on my countdown wub.gif

27. Right By My Side
(Nicki Minaj feat. Chris Brown)
2012 - Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded

Favourite lyrics:
"I be trippin', I be flipping, I be so belligerent
Man this shit that we be fighting over so irrelevant
I don't even remember though I was probably hella bent"




Right By My Side is one of the more melodic and well-produced songs on Roman Reloaded in my opinion and feels like it actually had a bit of care put into it (unlike stuff like "Automatic" & "Whip It" which just felt like they were put on the album to appeal to the pop fans for example even though they are jams). It's a lovely track and both artists sound lovely together but ultimately the slower pace means it doesn't give me as much as excitement when I hear it as some of the tracks yet to come do. This actually isn't the highest Nicki & Chris collaboration on my countdown, there is still one to come!

Always liked Right By My Side although it warred with my visceral dislike of Chris Brown.

Used to have a soft spot for Whip It too heehee.gif altho not such a big fan of pop Nicki, liked it more than Starships (that weird drop still confuses me) and Pound the Alarm.

Yeah, he's a terrible person so it's bit hard to like his songs in that sense but he always makes jams so it's a bit hard drama.gif

Whip It is a fair bit of fun but her pop classics are definitely my favourites out of her pop tracks wub.gif

Thanks for commenting, Jupiter!

He was in the video but not on the track itself as far as I'm aware ohmy.gif

Yeah, the raps especially are fire. She has so many bangers though so it's getting tough to rank them now drama.gif

I always find it lovely but I do often only listen to it in a certain mood so I get what you mean with that! ohmy.gif

26. Get On Your Knees
(Nicki Minaj feat. Ariana Grande)
2014 - The Pinkprint

Favourite lyrics:
"Got a bow on my panties because my ass is a present"




It's pretty crazy that she had songs like this and "Feeling Myself" on The Pinkprint and chose to release completely different tracks to release as singles when these undeniable bangers are on the same album. Ariana always sounds great but the chorus to this is brill and Ariana definitely makes it that little more special. The raps are great too and the two contribute to make a great song. I'd have loved to have seen a video for this sad.gif

25. Throw Sum Mo
(Rae Sremmurd feat. Nicki Minaj)
2014 - SremmLife

Favourite lyrics:
"Ass fat
Yeah I know
You just got cash?
Blow sum mo' "




I said earlier in the No Flex Zone commentary that Rae Sremmurd and Nicki make a pretty good team and this is evidence for the level of BOP that the two artist can make together. It's another more urban track that I think would decently in the UK nowadays but at least it was a US hit of sorts. The chorus is probably my favourite part of the song actually, it got stuck in my head for days when I first heard it music.gif

24. High School
(Nicki Minaj feat. Lil Wayne)
2013 - Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded – The Re-Up

Favourite lyrics:
"I never f*** with beginners
I let him play with my p*ssy then lick it off of his fingers
I'm in the zone"




This used to be one of my least favourite Nicki singles and I never used to find it all that special but it has grown on me in the past four years and now I count it as one of her strongest singles. It's a party staple in my group of friends and we ALWAYS used to play it at pre-drinks where everyone knew every lyric to the song (especially Nicki's FANTASTIC verse). The chorus is really catchy too so I'm not sure how I ever didn't love this. What a BANGER wub.gif

23. All Eyes On You
(Meek Mill feat. Nicki Minaj & Chris Brown)
2015- Dreams Worth More Than Money

Favourite lyrics:
"Still at the top of all their hit lists
What they gon' do? Meek and Nick"




I wasn't really that familiar with Meek before this (I had heard a few songs but nothing I really loved) and this completely took me by surprise with how much I enjoyed it. I was hooked after the first listen and even gave his album a go off the back of this (which I quite enjoyed too although admittedly didn't go back to much). It's just a lovely little midtempo track and so under-rated in her discography. It was a minor hit here in the UK and spent a fair few weeks in the top 100 but it deserved so much more sad.gif
