Nicki Minaj says she’s writing her verse for Skeng’s “Likkle Miss” remix.
The rap queen has hinted that she has a new project with Jamaican rising star, Skeng. On Tuesday afternoon, Nicki Minaj shared a teaser that drove her Jamaican fans crazy as she performed Skeng’s “Likkle Miss” while getting her pink hair “killed” and hinted that the collab was coming soon.
“Likkle Miss” was released by Skeng on July 7, 2022 and has 2.2 million views on YouTube. “Writing my verse,” Minaj wrote with the crazy emoji.
Skeng is a Jamaican dancehall artist known for his hard-hitting dancehall trap songs like “Gvnman Shift” and “Protocol”. The artist received kudos in April when Minaj shared that she was a fan of Skeng’s music. She had shared a vibrant video to Skeng’s “Street Cred”, leading her Jamaican fans to call for a collaboration between the two artists.
Nicki Minaj is a strong supporter of dancehall music and has collaborated with many up and coming artists like Skillibeng, Mavado and others. Skeng’s producers from the Di Truth label also shared their hope that the American superstar would collaborate with Skeng.
“I feel good, I know this is a Nicki dat and Nicki dem global,” Shacko DiTruth said in reacting to Minaj’s post in April. “She’s playing Skeng, it’s a good look, no joke.”
Shacko DiTruth and partner Buddah DiTruth had told the Jamaica Star that they were focused on the artist’s new work and would welcome a new collaboration with Minaj.
“But we also look forward to doing new work, new collaborations in the same way with Skeng and Nicki, different pace and everything. We’re always open to collaborating with a Street Cred remix if that’s the case, but we’d really like to do some new work,” he said.
DiTruth Records launched in 2019 with the release of Skeng’s second song, “Place Get Busy”, but the two producers and Skeng have been working for longer than that.
“We worked together before the music,” he said. “But when we start music, long before we were known to anyone, mi and the dog were making music together, so it’s like Skeng is growing up, we’re growing up too,” he said. declared.
Fans of the artist reacted to Minaj’s teaser. “Nicki shows so much love to JAMAICANS,” one person wrote.
Dancehall veterans Spice and Beenie Man are among the celebrities who have reacted to Nicki Minaj’s video. “It’s the way you’re always so fucking supportive that always makes me QUEEN GOAT [goat emoji]“, commented Spice. Beene Man added fire emojis on the clip.
Skeng has yet to respond to the artist’s latest post.
