VIBE: You’ve said before that you didn’t really have fun recording Pink Friday.
Nicki Minaj:  I felt like I had something to prove to everyone who  said a female  rapper could not make an album unless she was talking  about her pussy.  And so I went above and beyond to prove that I could  not talk about sex  and not talk about my genitalia and still have a  successful album. And  I proved that. And now my time for proving things  to my critics is  over. I don’t really need to prove anything to anyone  else anymore.
Nicki Minaj:  It’s not hard to get your way when it’s your way or the highway.   People either follow suit or they’re not around. I don’t really like the   sound of that, ‘cause that sounds like a temper tantrum. I’m just very   black and white when it comes to my business. There’s really no gray   area. I really don’t have a lot of small talk with people I work with.   It’s pretty much let’s get the job done. In the beginning, if people   didn’t know me they’d probably assume I wasn’t smart or wasn’t business   savvy. But once you sit and talk to me, it’s a different story.
You were heavy on the fashion scene last year around Fashion Week with Anna Wintour. Do you feel like you’ve been accepted by the fashion world?
Nicki Minaj:Yeah, I realized more recently that even if it’s for a fashion magazine, I’m not gonna change who I am. When I was doing photo shoots last year, I kept on being told, “This is what we want your hair to look like and this is what we want you to look like,” and it really, really stifled my creativity. So the other day I was talking to a photographer, and he said, “You know what, I like your everyday looks so much better than when you do photo shoots for magazines.” And I was like, “So do I, you’re absolutely right.” I’d been getting more and more frustrated for a while.
