Pink Friday is approaching, and Nicki Minaj drops the video for “Right Thru Me” (which seems to be the official spelling of the song), a bit of a cinematic treat for those who await her anticipated debut album, due out on or around November 23.
The video which debuted today on MTV, shows a subdued Nicki Minaj struggling in her fictitious relationship with an alluring visual mix of emotional softness and frustrated ferocity.
The last time we checked in with Nicki Minaj was on the release of her Pink Friday cover art, which caused a bit of a stir with it’s less-than-typical design. We’re not complaining, as we have been among the few outlets that call themselves supporters of hip hop purism who actually favor Nicki Minaj, so it sometimes seems.
All in all, for what it is, we like the video. Tell us what you think in the comments section below.
