With all of the Cardi B hype lately, Nicki Minaj seems to be battling for the spotlight and female rapper dominance. With BTS releasing their new music video ‘Idol’ not long ago (which is well over 140 million views on youtube as of this posting 9/7/2018), Nicki Minaj is now featured in a new version of ‘Idol’ that released yesterday. She has about 30 seconds in the music video, but is her verse that different than what we’re used to hearing from her? Does this American-Korean collaboration add value to the song? Hmmm… we honestly didn’t think it made much of a difference, but it definitely makes it more American radio friendly, so there’s that.
Skip to 3:12 and listen through 3:42 for the whole Nicki segment. Thoughts?
