Nicki Minaj is speaking out on the video for her single “Your Love”, the first single by a female emcee to top the Billboard Rap Songs category in over seven years.

The video premiered earlier this month and features Minaj as a martial arts student who is eventually over taken by her opponent in an unfair sword fight.

According to Nicki, the decision to have her character perish in the battle was to show a deeper message; that the only way to beat her is to cheat.

Speaking to MTV in an on-again, off-again British accent, Minaj explained the concept saying,

“I just felt like that was the most emotional and truthful storyline. I felt like mostly everyone would normally make themselves win in the end. I wanted to show that the only way I could be beat is if you cheat. If you cheat! If you play fair and square, I’m gonna win. It’s my little way of looking at it.”

Nicki also says she wanted the ending to be “heart wrenching” and viewers to cry over the death of her likable character.

“Also, I felt it was almost heart-wrenching to see it. I made myself this nice girl in the video and you bond with the character, you know what I mean? You know what I mean. You see her die. I wanted people to talk about it in the end. ‘Why did she make that decision?’ I wanted them to cry.”

J. Cole is speaking out on the controversy surrounding an appearance of Fayetteville State University cheerleaders in his debut video.

Cheerleaders from the North Carolina HBCU appeared in the rapper’s “Who Dat” video while he walked the streets of his hometown which apparently raised the eyebrows of the school’s administration.

The chancellor for the school, Dr. James Anderson, penned a letter denouncing their appearance in the video because of the song’s profanity and said that those involved“exhibited poor judgment” and should have only agreed to participate in the clean version.

Cole is finally voicing his opinion on the controversy and tells MTV that there’s an obvious generation gap between him and the administration officials. Instead of focusing on the lyrics, they should proud of the budding rapper for wanting to put his hometown on the map.

“That’s something that happens all the time in the Black community; it’s like a generational gap. They don’t get it….They can’t see the good out of the situation that a kid from Fayetteville made it out and made something out of hisself and wants to come home and represent to the rest of the world. They can’t see past the curse words…”

Check out J.Cole’s “profanity laced” video with the FSU cheerleaders below.

Wow, what a racy video.
