Nicki Minaj Has Her "Moment 4 Life" With Drake

Nicki Minaj's "Moment 4 Life" is an inspirational joint in which the Queens MC speaks with naked emotion about living out her dreams. The accompanying fantasy video shares a couple of romantic moments with fellow Young Money rapper Drake in their brand new "Moment 4 Life" Music video, which debuted on MTV Thursday night. Fans will finally get a glimpse of Young Money's First Lady cozying up to her labelmate as they walk down the aisle and play up their "are they or aren't they?" status with a kiss in video. Of course, it wouldn't be a Minaj production without a semi-solid theme of complete wackiness: "Moment 4 Life" depicts a Cinderella-esque Minaj enjoying the best night of her life because she's found love in the form of Drake.
"Moment 4 Life" serves as the third single from Minaj's platinum-selling debut album "Pink Friday." The song was produced by T-Minus and written by both performing artists, struggles to make it in the music industry and shows what they have already accomplished. The song is inspired by a story Minaj created, "is about 2 kids that grew up on the same block. They shared their dreams of making it as rappers," the lyricist writes. "They laughed together, they cried together. One day they realize that their dreams have come to fruition. Though they know all things come to an end, they celebrate. They wish that they could have this moment 4 LIFE."
I would be crazy not to describe this video as a fairytale and quite possibly Minaj's actual dream wedding. The music promo was shot back in December 2010 and the setting created by director Chris Robinson has a sort of Shakespearean feel to it, creating a more magical and romantic setting for Minaj and Drake. The comedy definitely came in the very beginning as Minaj had a conversation with herself as a fairy, discussing the big night and her alter ego, "Roman," getting wild with Slim Shady. The clip is also show putting on her makeup, when a pair of shoes magically appear on the table next to her. She is seen mouthing a thank-you to a fairy alter-ego that is carrying a wand and has wings attached to her back. There were lots of fireworks going off!
The favorite hip hop Barbie was heard bragging in an interview about how she can get Drake to do what she tells him to do. Some might say Minaj's "Moment 4 Life" is a glimpse at the real personality of Minaj. It's not too over the top, yet still incorporates her quirks. The 26-year-old Trinidadian raptress, a self-described schizophrenic, is ready for her big moment and continues to build the brand of a real life Disney character princess, and everyone loves it. The "Moment 4 Life" video is sure to be one of the hottest on the charts soon. Meanwhile, the new queen of Hip-hop will appear on tonight' Saturday Night Live show, hosted by 'Social Network' star Jesse Eisenberg.
