Nicki Minaj is amazing. I'd say her underground/earlier stuff demonstrate this quite clearly. For me the problem would be either in the Young Money label or in the "literally doing guest verses for everybody so she doesn't spend that much time on them" department. Probably some combination of the two.
I'm fairly certain that at some point, Nicki Minaj was magically turned into some kind of alien robot, because she neither looks nor sounds like an actual human anymore.
Is anybody else wondering if Owen Glyndwr is pulling a Patrick Bateman on us?
Spoiler:
Do you like Phil Collins? I've been a big Genesis fan ever since the release of their 1980 album, Duke. Before that, I really didn't understand any of their work. Too artsy, too intellectual. It was on Duke where Phil Collins' presence became more apparent. I think Invisible Touch was the group's undisputed masterpiece. It's an epic meditation on intangibility. At the same time, it deepens and enriches the meaning of the preceding three albums. Listen to the brilliant ensemble playing of Banks, Collins and Rutherford. You can practically hear every nuance of every instrument. In terms of lyrical craftsmanship, the sheer songwriting, this album hits a new peak of professionalism. Take the lyrics to Land of Confusion. In this song, Phil Collins addresses the problems of abusive political authority. In Too Deep is the most moving pop song of the 1980s, about monogamy and commitment. The song is extremely uplifting. Their lyrics are as positive and affirmative as anything I've heard in rock. Phil Collins' solo career seems to be more commercial and therefore more satisfying, in a narrower way. Especially songs like In the Air Tonight and Against All Odds. But I also think Phil Collins works best within the confines of the group, than as a solo artist, and I stress the word artist. This is Sussudio, a great, great song, a personal favorite.

If that's something an "Owen Glyndwr" wrote, then it's not me. I don't have an IMDb account, and I've never been a particularly big Phil Collins fan. Genesis went downhill after Peter Gabriel left.
No, that's (one of) Patrick Bateman's ramblings about '80s pop music from American Psycho. I was gonna link to it but the IMDb quotes page probably has about 50 F-bombs on it
