Queens rapper Nicki Minaj stays working hard, reappearing on record for the first time since the birth of her son in September. The 37-year-old rapper was tapped by Atlanta-born producer Mike Will Made-It (real name Michael Williams II) for “What That Speed Bout?!” a song and visual dropped on Friday (November 5, 2020) also featuring rising talent YoungBoy Never Broke Again (real name Kentrell Gaulden).
While the visual was dropped after the birth of her child, it’s clear from the visual that it was shot while Minaj (real name Onika Maraj-Petty), was still pregnant. The sci-fi-themed visual is brightly lit and colorful but is mainly highlighted by the double shot of charisma provided by Minaj and YoungBoy.
Minaj’s looks were handled by Nothing But Trouble, (her maternity photoshoot stylist) who put her in looks by County of Milan, Balenciaga, Iceberg, Christian Cowan (the fur coat!), The Blonds and Rinaldy Yunardi among others.
Kellon Deryck styled Minaj’s hair while Mila Thomas took care of her makeup.
YoungBoy was styled in a Comme des Garçons vest, Dior logo top and white denim paired with Nike Air Force 1 sneakers.
