Nicki Minaj Says The Barbz Are Getting A Deluxe Version Of ‘Pink Friday 2’: Gag City With Rihanna (+Video)

Nicki Minaj is really giving her Barbz that work! We think everyone has been waiting for this collaboration. Nicki announce via her Instagram stories that a ‘Pink Friday 2’: Gag City Deluxe version featuring Rihanna is coming soon. Looks like Nicki and Rhi might be FTCU.

Nicki Minaj and Rihanna have had their ups and downs in their friendship; are things looking up for this musical pair?

Rihanna and Nick Minaj’s friendship was on full display for a while, as they collaborated on music together. Suddenly there was a long period of silence, which has recently evolved into a pleasant surprise for fans. These powerful ladies are hanging out with one another again, and fans are excitedly hoping that this means they’re going to be collaborating on new music again.

In the earlier days, before these powerhouse ladies became friends, Nicki Minaj idolized Rihanna and could only ever dream of meeting her one day. She truly aspired to work with her and expressed her intrigue with Rihanna during a series of interviews. Minaj opened up about how much she admired Rihanna’s talents by saying, “I wanted to work with Rihanna for a long time. I’m very proud of her accomplishments; especially since she was born on an island like me.” She must have manifested it, as her wishes definitely came true.

All friendships are based on common interests and for Rihanna and Minaj, it seems they both bond over their heritage and island-roots. Rihanna was born in Barbados and maintains strong ties to her homeland, and Nicki Minaj was born in Port of Spain, Trinidad and Tobago.

Minaj realizes how fortunate she is to have made it big in the music industry, especially considering her very modest, humble beginnings and sees the same level of success from Rihanna’s upbringing. Their “island girl” success story is one that connects them to one another.
