Nicki Minaj Sparks Rihanna Collaboration Rumours With Female “Icons” Playlist 

Nicki Minaj is showing love to the ladies, revealing some of her favorite female artists, including Rihanna and Taylor Swift. 


Although the NYC rapper has been keeping a low profile while on hiatus, she tapped in with her fans on Stationhead, sharing a playlist curated for her channel on the streaming platform. 

The women featured on Nicki Minaj’s playlist were Rihanna, Ariana Grande, Billie Eilish, and Taylor Swift.  

“Some of my fave girls of all time,” she wrote alongside the list before hailing the artists as “Icons.”  

The playlist sparked mixed reactions on social media, with some fans questioning Beyoncé’s absence while others speculated it might hint at potential collaborators for Minaj’s upcoming album. 

“Ohhh!!! She’s back and spreading the collab crumbs,” one enthusiastic fan shared. “We are so here,” while another stated, ” This would be a great feature list for NM6.” 

A different user pointed to the lack of Hip-Hop artists on the list. “Notice how she mentioned zero female rappers?” another person wrote. “Not even Doja….. She hates female rappers it’s so clear.” 

While Nicki Minaj is sharing her favorite female artists, fans eagerly awaited the release of Pink Friday 2 – The Hiatus deluxe album. 

Minaj announced she would drop the album on December 13, a year after the original album’s release, but it failed to materialize. 

Back in October, Nicki Minaj revealed she would be taking some time off following her tour. 

“I am doing a hiatus,” she confirmed. “But I have the Vogue thing, which I’m very proud and honored to do, and a couple things and then I’ll be taking a little moment to reflect.”  

However, she quickly backtracked stating “Ain’t going no mthfkn where,” adding “Kiss my ass & HIATUS LMFAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.”  

Nonetheless, Minaj has remained low-key and has not posted on social media since early December.
