Nicki Minaj comes out of what has to be the quickest ‘retirement’ ever to accompany her upcoming Fendi collection with a theme song.
On Wednesday, news circulated that PnB Rock’s single “Fendi” featuring Nicki Minaj and Murda Beatz would be released at midnight. Right on time, the track made its way to streaming services. Inspired by the Italian fashion house, the designer-toting ode was released to celebrate Minaj’s Fendi Prints On collection, which launches next month.
I swear, this is really my favorite song,” says the self-proclaimed queen on the intro before rapping, “So tell ’em dirty bitches I am the Queen Sleaze / When he put it in me I go squeeze-squeeze.”
While this track will satisfy Nicki’s legion of strangely devoted fans who believed that they wouldn’t receive any new music from the rapper until the release of her next album, Nicki still isn’t giving up many details regarding her forthcoming project. She did, however, share with Elle that the record is “fierce, fun, and unapologetic.”
“It’s probably the most excited I’ve been about an album release in a really long time. I’m happy that we’re not making my fans wait for another album, like I’ve done in the past,” she said. “This one incorporates all the things people love about Nicki, but it also just has a way bigger sound, so it goes perfectly with the collection.”
Give “Fendi” a few listens and let us know what you think. ISSA BOP OR ISSA FLOP?
