Female rappers get it the hardest. You have to be a girl, yet you have to be just as hard as the guys. I think some female rappers get scared out of the business before they can make it. – Nicki Minaj
My advice to women in general: Even if youre doing a nine-to-five job, treat yourself like a boss. Not arrogant, but be sure of what you want – and dont allow people to run anything for you without your knowledge. – Nicki Minaj
Its not hard to get your way when its your way or the highway. People either follow suit or theyre not around. I dont really like the sound of that, cause that sounds like a temper tantrum. Im just very black and white when it comes to my business. Theres really no gray area. – Nicki Minaj
My rule is, whatever you were calling me four years ago is what you should be calling me now, because I dont like it when my family or close friends call me Nicki Minaj. To me Im not Nicki Minaj when Im with them. – Nicki Minaj
