Something gotta give. You help me, I help you. That’s how it goes to me.”[3]Minaj responded to the situation in an interview on The Angie Martinez Show saying “She picked a fight with Foxy, then she picked a fight with Eve, then she picked a fight with Remy, then it was Mrs. Wallace, then it was Nicki Minaj”, said Minaj. “Every time you in the news, it’s ’cause you gettin’ at somebody! Where’s your music? Put your music out, and when I see your name on Billboard, that’s when I’ll respond to you. Other than that, goodbye. It’s Barbie, bitch.”[3] Minaj also went on to respond to Kim on “Roman’s Revenge,” a song from her debut album, in 2010 with Eminem.[4]Critical reception[edit]Minaj’s work on the mixtape has been compared to the likes of rappers Eminem (left) and Lil Wayne (right); Minaj went on to collaborate with both numerous times in her career.In a 2014 article, NME described the mixtape as Minaj’s bang “on the door of hip-hop\u2019s boys club” and was described as “explosive”.[5] Although Minaj jumped on a “load of popular hip hop instrumentals”, she successfully made every track feel like her own.[6]Minaj’s remix of Eminem and The Notorious B.I.G.’s “Dead Wrong” was seen as a standout track from the mixtape which called in “comparisons to NYC rap legends like Notorious” and eventually continued by Minaj in her third studio album, The Pinkprint, on songs such as “Four Door Aventador”.[6] The song was also called a “triumph and an omen” in a Paper Magazine article, but that it was hardly comparable to Minaj’s fourth studio album, Queen.[7] With high praise response from critics, Minaj won an award for Female Artist of the Year at the 2008 Underground Music Awards.[8]Accolades[edit]Commercial performance[edit]The mixtape debuted at number 95 on Billboard’s Top R&B\/Hip-Hop Albums, making it Minaj’s first mixtape to chart.[9]Track listing[edit]References[edit]^ Lipshutz, Jason. “Nicki Minaj Catches Eyes On Lil’ Wayne’s Young Money Tour”.
