Nicki reflected on her extremely sexual “Anaconda” music video and its backlash in her cover feature.

“With a video like ‘Anaconda,’ I’m a grown-a** f*cking woman! I stand for girls wanting to be sexy and dance, but also having a strong sense of themselves. If you got a big ol’ butt? Shake it! Who cares? That doesn’t mean you shouldn’t be graduating from college.” (Rolling Stone)

Nicki also talked about hip-hop’s craftsmanship and not rushing out music.

“I hate when artists brag about not writing rhymes, or doing things really quickly, and then it’s not great. It’s ill when Jay Z or [Lil] Wayne say it, because the results are great. When they’re not? Sit your ass down and figure out something new to say!” (Rolling Stone)

Nicki recently discussed some of the video’s subliminal moments.

But, towards the end of the interview Minaj acknowledges that the video is also about power and control. “I’m chopping up the banana. Did you realize that? At first I’m being sexual with the banana, and then it’s like, ‘Ha-ha, no.’ ” When discussing how the Drake scene immediately follows the kitchen scene, she says, “Yeah, that was important for us to show in the kitchen scene, because it’s always about the female taking back the power, and if you want to be flirty and funny that’s fine, but always keeping the power and the control in everything.” (GQ)

The rap star hopped onto her Twitter page to break big news about “Anaconda” last fall.
