Nicki Minaj’s eclectic taste in music

Nicki Minaj has revealed her eclectic taste in music in the latest issue of ‘Elle’ magazine.

“I listen to Beyoncé, I listen to Rihanna, I listen to Kanye, and of course Lil Wayne. Of course Drake,” she says. “I listen to a lot of gospel music. I listen to Cyndi Lauper, Avril Lavigne… I just bought a whole bunch of reggae like Mavado and Lady Saw and Beenie Man.’

The ‘Moment 4 Life’ singer goes on to talk about the pressure fame adds to her everyday decisions.

“To know that I’m ‘making waves,’ it feels good, but it gives me a little more pressure,” she explains. “Because before, I would do things without thinking. I would do an interview without thinking or wear something without thinking, but it makes me put a lot more thought because now, I know people are going to pick it apart. Whether the love or hate it, people are going to pick it apart.”
