Nicki Minaj has always seemed to exist outside the realm of pedestrian blog-rap buzz, unconcerned with using her power to ride the waves of up-and-comers the way her biggest peers do. (Think Drake and MigosKanye West and Chief Keef, or even Lil Wayne and Chance). So her decision to freestyle over a viral YouTube track ("Boss Ass Bitch") and then go rogue on an unofficial remix of the Hottest New Single by Hottest New Atlanta Rapper Young Thug feels like a coup, a serious jolt to her brand.
But instead of sounding desperate—as though she's forcefully jumping a bandwagon, or just learning to read the internet—she lets everyone know that she's been watching all along and is in total control. She's Auto-Tuned, she's singing about Twitter bios in a fake patois, she's flexing her voice to match Young Thug's, she's telling Justin Timberlake that she's "coming for Jes-siCA BIEL!" Nicki's impossibly at ease, as ever.
