Yesterday afternoon, we finally got our hands on Lil Wayne’s Dedication 4 mixtape with DJ Drama. Much to the delight of Barbz everywhere, we saw there was a brand new Nicki Minaj collab on there, with her and Tunechi going in over G.O.O.D. Music’s hit record, “Mercy”. Before I got the chance to listen, I saw a couple people on my timeline saying they hope Nicki Minaj’s line doesn’t influence a whole bunch of easily swayed fans to vote for Romney, but I wasn’t sure what they were referring to. Upon listening, now I get it! ““I’m a Republican voting for Mitt Romney,” Nicki raps on the track. “You lazy b*tches are f*ckin’ up the economy!” Well then! Do you think that was nothing more than just a jab at the competition, or is she really going to vote for Obama’s rival? Listen to the track below and take the poll to let us know your thoughts!

Nicki Minaj Reacts To President Obama’s Comments
Nicki Minaj is one smart cookie. Last week when Wayne’s Dedication 4 mixtape dropped, her song was one of the most talked about tracks on the tape. “I’m a Republican, voting for Romney,” she rapped over G.O.O.D. Music’s “Mercy” beat. “You lazy b*tches are f*ckin’ up the economy.” Twitter fans, rap critics, blog sites and news programs all were dissecting the Queens MC’s lyrics, attempting to decipher if she was in fact now a Republican. One site even went so far as to search if she’s registered to vote in the NY and LA cities she owns homes in (she’s not). One person who DIDN’T comment on it all was Nicki herself. Then today, we actually got a reply from the President! Barack seemed to brush it off and see it for its entertainment value and these words finally got Nicki to speak up…and she’s thrilled. See her response below. Marisa Mendez
