Sis, my Twitter and Instagram feed have been in shambles since the release of Pink Friday 2! Nicki Minaj’s 22 song album includes tracks about her emotional resilience, her Trini and Caribbean pride, how she’s unfuckwithable, and most importantly intimate reflections on her life.

For 16 years, Nicki has mastered the art of the quick change, jumping to different characters, genre to genre, and putting her signature cadences on, pop, dancehall, afrobeats, R&B, and hip-hop music.

In Pink Friday 2, the queen aims to produce and constantly remind her fans, her haters and enemies what she’s done for women in rap and that she could never be replaced.

With the album selling around 41 million streams and breaking Spotify records in 2 days , the Harajuku Barbie inspired our cocktail of the week that combines fruity flavours and a burst of pink goodness.
