Still revving in the news, Nicki recently shared a short video of her verse on “Sweetest Girl” collaboration with Wyclef Jean, as she said she might be leaving forever. She said: “I wish I could go back in time & hug this lil girl. Used to be the #SweetestGirl”. In addition to this, she shared photos of her hugging her younger self in series of photos she shared online.
Nicki has been in the industry since 2004 and held her own as the queen of rap after succeeding in creating a niche for her style of music. Since then, she went on to get 10 grammy nominations, earned a Guinness World Record in 2017 for most Billboard Hot 100 entries by a solo female artist, won five MTV Video Music Awards and also became the first female rapper to officially sell 100 million units across her albums, singles and features as certified by the Recording Industry Association of America.
