Nicki Minaj Quotes:
"I just embrace all people of all lifestyles and I don't tell them they are bad people. ... But I feel like people always wanna define me and I don't wanna be defined."

"When I started rapping, people were trying to make me like the typical New York rapper, but I'm not that, No disrespect to New York rappers, but I don't want people to hear me and know exactly where I'm from."

"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. 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."
-responding to Lil' Kim

"All dem #1s but J.Lo phone ringin? Lol. I guess having a personality, being a secure woman and giving genuine critique still trumps that" -responding to Mariah Carey
