Premiere: Nicki Minaj – Your Love

Sandra Rose July 21, 2010

The music video for rapper Nicki Minaj’s infectious tune “Your Love” premiered early this morning.

I didn’t bother to watch it because something about walking cartoons who demand to be taken seriously irks me. Watch the vid and tell me what you think.

Man, I just don’t care™

That’s my hoe Nicki Minaj!

Michael J is one fine brother and has a sexy body too.

much better than the massive attack fiasco

LOL at Man…
Al-Ameera

She looks pretty and really normal for most of the video. She is still making all those crazy faces and don’t like the song but cute video, I guess
Ebony
SugaBrown

Its alright, not a big Nicki fan but she is growing on me. I like the use of Annie Lennox’s “No More I Love You’s” for the chorus/background music.
MissGauzzz

i tried lord knows i tried… i just can’t get with nicki!

Man, I just don’t care™

¿¿¿ ???

Your boy fell the hail off huh? He went from big budget movies (Spawn) to… “Tyler Perry Productions” (draw your own conclusions) to …. NICKI MINAJ VIDEOS?????

Fire your agent nigga!

The crowd said BOOOO

Yes ma’am

I liked the video. It was different and cute.

And Massive Attack was my song! I loved it but i guess most people didn’t
Anna

I don’ know anything she sings because I don’t listen to that type of music, but is her attire on purpose to equal Toni Basil from the 80’s(Hey Mickey You’re So Fine)?
inCredible02

this song…

“He the type to pop tags and be cockin the brim
Might breeze through The Ave, might stop at the gym
And he keep a du rag, keep his wave on swim
Wa-waves on swim so they hate on him…”
whatdoesitmatter

She really looks like a young Chaka Khan to me.

Is it me or is something different about her face??

Just can’t get with the hype over her.

I wasted my time clicking the link. I didn’t even make it pass the 0.19 mark….

I’m still trying to understand why people are feeling Nicki M??? Is she supposed to be a rapper? She seems teeny-bopperish to me.

I like my female raps stars circa Foxy Brown, MC Lyte or even Lil Kim.

Someone please enlighten me of why Nicki Minaj is hot right now?

Morning! This whole Nikki movement needs to end soon.

GOOD MORNING SR FAM

I USE TO LIKE THIS SONG…VIDEO CAME OUT A LIL TOO LATE.
CivilEngineer

Why does it end like that??
MissHarlem

I like the video its different and no naked chicks in it this has got to be a first this year.
ardentphotog

Man, your comments sound like something Riley from ‘The Boondocks’ would say

“Fire your agent, Nigga”
Reese

*yawn* I’m too old to care about this broad.
ardentphotog

IsaiahsMom, I’m willing to say the reason she is just fresh meat on the Hip Hop market. Plus she’s surgically enhanced and won’t admit it, and she’s 1/2 gay – that’s alwasy intriguing.
mirsmommy

Ummmkay. I haven’t really listened to Nikki’s music (her voice annoys me), but this song had to grow on me. I think it’s the chorus that caught me. :/

Oh how I miss Hardcore Kim, and Remy.
mirsmommy

Michael J sure is a fine specimen.

Niki is some kinda sexy (and normal looking most of the video), but the video was

********************************

She sure does! Just like that Janell Monae girl looks like Anita baker in the face. Nikki has grown on me…she has skills outside of the gimmicks, but she’s getting her money stacked her way. Can’t hate on that. She cracks me up though!

You know what is crazy to me I don’t listen to her music and yet she still bores the hell out of me…
biglegs36

She is pretty! thatisall!

I see Diddy makin her ass calm down on all them multi colored weird ass outfits..Diddy KNOW what the BOYS like

The video suxx

______________________________________________________________________________

I watched it several times because I figured I must have blinked or something. Surely Nicki would realize what her fans wanted to see. Sadly, she neglected this very important and artistic element. This is a travesty and an insult to the Rap Video genre not to include the most important aspect.

People should respect tradition. SMH.

unfortunately it wont end until Female MCs produce a “marketable” alternative…until then…this is what you got.

I feel if Kim wasn’t trying to look like Micheal Jackson she could have still been relevant. She should of never changed her look from her Junior Mafia\Hardcore dayz…

Good Morning all.

The video is cute, very low budget and simple. I liked the semi storyline and the chance we were able to see Nicki ‘acting’. She looked really pretty and that man was some eye candy. I liked it. Go Nicki

Nikki has grown on me…she has skills outside of the gimmicks, but she’s getting her money stacked her way. Can’t hate on that. She cracks me up though!

I like less barbie Nicki and this vid is a step in the right direction and her verse on Bottoms Up – her flow & delivery = fire. This is an improvement over Massive Attack. Compare her to herself, not to Kim.

Hated it!

@MxThickness – I liked the song before the raekwon/ghostface line .. I had it on my BB for months and then I heard it was on the radio and heard the finished version.

The video and song just don’t go together. It looks like they shot it all in one place. She looks nice and her makeup is very pretty.
spongebobfan

LIES@ sandra rose, you know you nikki minaj just as much as i do!

TEAM NIKKI!
OutsidetheBox

I think Nicki is a breath of fresh air. Tux (a la Janelle Monae) or Bikini (a la Kim) the female population is always hard to please!

They will come around especially if she gets back to “freshman” Nicki.
spongebobfan

Did nick canon direct this?
Spawn looks yummy.
that white/asian bum bytch would not have beat me.
Nikki is so cute!

Her make up is nice and I hope she does not get anymore nose JOBS…
KayCeiSoul

Compare her to herself, not to Kim.

Nikki should never be compared to Kim, you know? Every era has their one with that different flare…Kim belonged to the 90’s. Her reign was supreme, ’cause the bish could flow. But it is someone else’s turn for the love of GOD! Why won’t they let Nikki be grand for her audience? As long as the audience she is targeting supports her, let that chile alone. SMH.
Thetruth32

good Morning Fam!!!!

at the end of the video… Less makeup is a good luck for Nicki M.
(in my living color voice aka antwan) HATED IT
http://facebook.com/Im2thick4u 2thick4u

I stans for this song

The video was very cute…Michael Jai White does what he do best…Martial Arts ;).

I’m glad that she went for a subtle video that didn’t have 2 much crap in it…very laid back
lakercrazy

i wish she would step away from the box of crayons and stop making them ugly azz faces not a fan of hers but she is just anoying
AWESOME ARSENAL

When women wear makeup caked on like she does it kinda freaks me out.
Khunfuzion

This was her opportunity to keep it hood. The song reminds me of a cute little ghetto love anthem, but she went tooooooo far to the left with that bullshit video. Somebody advising her wrong, or not at all. She is not a Geisha and the video looks low budget. They couldn’t afford CGI so they used bed sheets and a fan. Peep the end when she’s bleeding sheets, you can see it being pulled across the floor. Ugg, try again Nicki.

I turn the station everytime I hear the song come on. I may watch the video on mute later.

@khun, you were supposed to see that!
FloridaChick813

LOVED this song when it came out a few months ago

shawty ima only tell you this once, you the illest…
http://thecubiclechick.com STLVixen

Not feeling the video or the fact that they basically ished on Annie Lennox’s No More I Love You’s which is a brilliant song. What happened to originality? Oh wait, no one really cares anymore. Recycling….

Mamacita:
I like massive attack too. It had to grow on me though, just like this song. I liked the video.

Michael Jai White is sexy! Nicki is singing too, it wasn’t that bad. She is very pretty.
Candi Apple

She is a pretty girl. I like her. The video is good she carried it well. I guess she doesn’t have a big budget yet. She is just starting out on an independent level. She did well rising to the top of the rap game as a female artist is and extremely challanging task.

Micheal Jai White is a sexy as man.

See, if only I could sit long enough (to stomach?) to watch this video so that I could see that shyt! Priceless!!!

i just dont get the hate. ah wellz
Sheena215

JUST SAY THE VIDEO AND MICHAEL J WHITE IS FINE, HE THE BEST THING ABOUT THE VIDEO. HIS BODY IS BANGING
Candi Apple

She has a story and not a saga or sequel ie bootie popping, drink pouring, cars that dont belong to her, etc.

It kept me interested all the way through, which is a good thing because I honestly didn’t think a video could be interesting with this song. Way better than that usher video and I love that song. It was different.
