Nicki Minaj lauds Drake as one of this generation's greatest talents

'Starships' hitmaker Nicki Minaj has revealed her admiration for fellow rapper and Young Money label mate Drake.

The pair took the stage at London's Wireless Festival together recently and performed a live duet for their fans, and Minaj told MTV News that she is so proud of the career he has built for himself:

"That's my baby, I'm very, very proud of him. He's just an incredible talent and people like him only come around once every twenty, thirty years."

She also added that collaborating with Drake at the event was a fantastic experience and she really enjoyed reuniting with him:

"I was happy to go out there and rock with the fans. "I was happy to go out and perform 'Make Me Proud' as I haven't performed that in a long time."

"They [fans] really made me feel that when I come to London, that I'm home. You know it's rare that you find a place that you've never been to and it feels like home. I only started coming to London last year and it feels incredible, they are like my die hard fans."
