I don't see her being done full time but taking time off to start a family is nothing to be mad at. She still has her fans so her shit will sell when she does come back

"I know you guys are happy now"

Not a real retirement, she'll be wrestling Terry Funk at an outlaw show by the end of the month.

RETIRE from music?

I didn't know she had ever even MADE music.

Unless some notable time passes and we start to wonder where Nicki went, I’m expecting this to last about as long as the Lil Uzi Vert retirement.

Really, how is she not eventually going to drop at least one verse fairly soon with her ego and personal drive?

Considering Cardi hasn't stopped since she came on the scene, she def waiting for her to fall off to start being able to pop shit again

So the rapper of Chun Li decided to go home and be a family woman.

Doubt it will last. She'll be back to doing lazy verses on other people's songs for a half a million bucks sooner or later.

What’s the point of announcing retirement from a creative endeavor? It always just seems like a ploy to sell tickets, and if the band or artist then returns a couple years later, they essentially just ripped off their fans.

Something wrong with just “I’m not feeling music right now, going to take an extended hiatus to try other things. Maybe I’ll come back when I get bored” or something similar?

Retirement sounds more dramatic

She'll probably be back. And I hope so.

I'm hot and cold when it comes to Nicki. I really think some of her verses are great. I also think she has some rough stuff out there. But I think she has a lot of talent and more to give.

Remember when Mase was signed to G-Unit tho lol

Jay-Z’s retirement was hysterical because everyone knew he was going to continue.

Same thing here with Nicki.

[Cyno]

Nicki Minaj may retire, but Roman Zolanski will pick up the slack.

[Perd]

She should throw a big retirement party where she sails away on a boat and call it Bon Voyage to Nicki Minaj.

[Mozenrath]

Is she still upset a baby upstaged her?

[Mr PONYMANIA Mr Jenzie]

first time i seen her was in Will.I.Am's Check It Out
mostly it's her more well known stuff after that like SUPER BASE, POUND THE ALARM, BANG BANG ..... ANACONDA BUTTS ..... the phenomenal TURN ME ON

her colabs are probably her best though ..... SWISH SWISH BISH and WOMAN LIKE ME, although i preferred Little Mix in that more, and more than likely turn over when she comes on in SWALLA .....

but you know, good luck to her

Sometimes she can go through the motions, like on Carti’s “Poke It Out” (and that song is kinda catchy anyway), but a lot of her material is top notch, like “Right Through Me” and her bit on Ye’s Monster. The “put ‘me in a dungeon” verse on Roman Holiday has become a legendary meme at this point.

People also forget Jay retired three times, so when this one (his third in 2003) happened, absolutely everyone was like "...Okay."
