Nicki Minaj- BET.Com Blog #1 “Step Ya Cookies Up” (Video)

Posted in Videos on Jun 24, 2009

Nicki Minaj’s BET.com Video Blog Entry #1 from Andreas Hale on Vimeo.

Bet.com is putting together a series of blogs from artists, first up is Nicki Minaj.
You will find performance footage and a backstage look at the Harajuku Barbie advocate.
If your confused (as I was) she explains the “Step ya cookies up” mantra she mentions in EVERY interview she does.
I just fear over exposure of this chick right now. I’ve seen a bunch of interviews with her already but haven’t listened to one of her songs! I guess her music just doesn’t appeal to me *shrugs*

    Dude, how is she being overexposed when there's no videos yet, no single on the radio yet, nothing that even suggests she's on the marketing campaign for an album yet? She's still on the COME-UP! I'm sensing some bias here---maybe due to the leader of the Light Skin invasion---so give the sister a break! You can say this AFTER she gets a video on MTV, BET & Youtube, AFTER a single blows.

    Why are things getting so difficult for women in Hip-Hop? Why are y'all making so obviously sexist?

    Xilla didnt post it, I posted it.
    And over exposed on the blogs ! in the sense that she DOESNT have a video or radio play, yet she still has out interviews and videos on blogs all the time. Its like im getting tired of seeing her talk about what shes doing instead of seeing some substance behind it. There's nothing sexist about that.
  • Phil
    But, what does "overexposure" on BLOGS mean? She has 3 mixtapes out right now, which is why she's getting a little press...just like Flake! So singling her out without even hearing the music to even understand why she's getting press, YET the Flake can get 10 posts without so much as a blink sounds like bias to me.

    This girl is nowhere close to "overexposure on blogs" when cats are posting about Flake's choice of cereal at this point. It would make more sense to post about your reaction to her music to even answer the underlying question as to why she's even getting this much press. Claiming "overexposure on blogs" is the easy way out.

    SUCKS. She needs to get her IQ up and stop talking about the same tired shit that all female rappers (with the exception of a few ie Lil Mama) talk about. I vote NO!
  • Phil
    Oh, so you're including Jean Grae, Tiye Phoenix, Eternia, Lauryn Hill, MC Lyte, Bahamadia, and Rah Digga in that group? And have the nerve to cite LIL' MAMA--a blatant and outright FAILURE in this game cuz she had the stupidity to go out in public in every worst outfit imaginable and call her shit "Hip-Pop"---as a "good" example?

    You, sir, FAIL.

    Phil is lurking for Nicki Minaj haters lol !!

    Nah, just real journalists.

    Have a nice one.
  • whoa!! this is BLOG xilla.com no journalist here. If you want a journalist go to wall street journalist. I am a blogger and nor do I claim to be a journalist. BLOGGING allow me and my writers to state our opinions about stuff and you know what... it's my blog i don't have to be grammatically correct politically correct or correct for that matter. I write what i want in my web log. a log of my thoughts which is featured on the web. If you get your journalism or search for your journalism on blogs... you lost. Read the paper pick up a magazine. but honestly your favorite blogger might right for that magazine as well.

    but please don't try to insult my girls...
  • and i know i have some misspelled words sue me.
  • Phil
    Whatever, it's your world boss. I was pointing out where what she was saying didn't click. So, if your "writer" wants to put out an uninformed opinion that doesn't make sense, and that's your standard, it's understood, this is your thing. Cool.
  • how is it uninformed? She's on the blogs daily with different stuff, at different events... she's everywhere. I see her all the time. Same as i see LIL WAYNE, his marketing team is a beast. Just as much as i see the drake. whatever though i'm not going to argue with you phil... im bout to go write about sex... and we can discuss some sex topics.
  • Phil
    Forget it, y'all win.
  • Phil
    Uh oh, here come the "I'm just a blogger" excuses.
  • and what's wrong with being just a blogger? I'm just a blogger who works for globalgrind.com I'm just a blogger who has slayed down your favorite video vixen or a video vixen you know. I'm just a blogger who makes enough money to throw up stacks in the air and still give both of my kids the best. I'm just a blogger who has meet with almost every artist in the game. I'm just a blogger whose opinion is so valued people pay me to think. I'm just a blogger who has smashed a female rnb singer or two. I'm just a blogger who can go whereever i want whenever i want . Im just a blogger who lives an amazing life. and i'm very thankful for the things i have achieved. Women love me for being JUST A BLOGGER!

    again please do not try to insult my girls.
  • Phil
    And what does any of that have to with this? Why should I care about any of that? I said the "I'm just a blogger" thing because tons of cats use that as an excuse for poor reporting, instigation, and just overall pointless writing.

    I have no idea why you'd want to point out all this other stuff that has nothing to do with me and writers who don't do their homework.

    Ah, just forget it. Like I said, this is your world. I'll stay over here.
  • OK google Nicki Minaj it brings up over 790,000 results from someone i couldn't name one song from... blog search her she has 50,000 in the last week. Name a song of hers...

    And since you think it's my world why don't you allow me to be great!
  • Phil
    "Go Crazy" w/Lil' Wayne.

    Like I said, Y'ALL WIN. And it's not up to me whether or not you'll be great. That's up to you and the people you choose to rep you. And that is NOT an insult or attack, just life...you still win, OK?
  • I don't get why no one has heard of Nicki .. she's been on the come up (as far as being commercial as opposed to just underground) for a mad long time now -- idk, maybe its just me, but I like her music. I also like the way she thinks too .. Like--I thought that whole "Nicki Lewinski" deal was o.d, and completely took it to mean something different (like most peeps, i guess).. until I heard her explain that ish in an interview..
    & idk, I'm a big fan & have been for a while now. She's trying to get her name out there though, but its tough obviously, if she is literally everywhere (Birthday Bash, on MTV, on BET, on Dr. Jays new ad campaign, VladTV, etc, etc, not to mention on a ridiculous amount of remixes & mixtapes) & people STILL don't even know ANY of her songs.

    That being said, I understand how you could think of it as 'overexposure' --when she's not even that big.
