Since Nicki Minaj exploded onto the charts in 2010 she has been lauded for reviving the female Hip-Hop movement. Regarded as much more than just a rapper, Minaj has been categorised by her peers, including Lil Wayne and Kanye West, as a crossover artist who has the potential to take the Hip-Hop genre to new heights.
