Young Money f. Lloyd, “Bed Rock” MP3

“Bed Rock” doesn’t quite have the same magic as “Every Girl,” even though it’s rumored to be the first official single from the Young Money album, but having Minaj on here putting all these boys in their places is definitely something that was missing on its Young Money predecessor. As FADER editor Felipe Delerme learned recently, Nikki Nicki has a knack for making grown men nervous. If anyone knows the producer of the beat, drop the name in the comments.

Freeload: Drake f. Nikki Minaj, “Best I Ever Had (Remix)”

This song is lighting up New York radio right now, and since we are wont to make incredibly insightful comparisons over here at FADER, we’ve decided that Drake is the Keith Sweat of rap and Nikki Minaj is Teena Marie—so smooth and kind of creepy on the one hand and adorably gangster on the other.

Freeload: Beyonce f. Nicki Minaj, “Single Ladies (Remix)”

In the spirit of keeping it all the way live (Lakeside!), Beyonce never seemed all that cool with sharing the spotlight, and you can probably imagine how Sasha Fierce feels. Accordingly, Nicki Minaj had to hijack B’s “Single Ladies (Put A Ring On It)” and put two verses on it that sound like Sasha’s dancing looks. Besides rapping in patois as well as some derivative of an English accent (a Slick Rick impersonation perhaps?), she tells some dude who passed up the chance to propose, “Sucks for you.” We can believe that.
