Kanye West, Drake, Eminem, Rihanna, and Natasha Bedingfield make appearances on MC’s debut LP.
Young Money spitter Nicki Minaj has already revealed that her hotly-anticipated debut, Pink Friday, will feature a collabo with hip-hop heavyweight Eminem, as well as contributions from her colorful alter egos. However, the album’s recently unveiled track list shows that the “Right Thru Me” hitmaker has corralled an A-list roster of features for her major-label maiden voyage. “Blazin,” a collaboration with “genius” MC Kanye West, appears on the track list for the deluxe version of Friday, which hit iTunes Saturday. Rihanna, who teamed up with Minaj for the Loud collaboration “Raining Men,” returns the favor on the track “Fly.” The will.i.am-assisted single “Check It Out” and “Moment 4 Life,” featuring Minaj’s labelmate and ex-Twitter husband Drake, also appear on the album. Perhaps one of the more surprising guests is British songstress Natasha Bedingfield, who lends her skills to “Last Chance.”
Nicki Minaj has built her mainstream career by consistently knocking out powerhouse features for everyone from Trey Songz to Diddy. Even though she’s ready to run the game with her solo work, the breakout femcee has maintained she’s down to work with anyone who can contribute to an inventive collabo. While entertaining the idea of jumping on a track with fellow music original Lady Gaga, Minaj insisted she wouldn’t pass up a partnership with potential.
“I’m inspired by her creativity,” Minaj said during her recent “RapFix Live” interview. “The women in the game, I never say I would never work with them because, in fact, if there’s an opportunity for me to work with them, and it’s a way that we can kill the game and do something crazy, why would I turn that down?”
