Nicki Minaj & 50 Cent Connect for the First Time on New Version of ‘Beep Beep’
With her current momentum on 10, Nicki Minaj opted to crank the decibels even more by enlisting 50 Cent on the newest version of her Pink Friday 2 song “Beep, Beep.”
“#QGTM SOUTHSIDE JAMAICA, QUEENS STAND TF UP!!!!!!!!!!!! He walked on this sh–. YIKESSSSSSSSSSSSSSS I am so honored to have him stop by #GagCity!!!! #PinkFriday2,” an excited Minaj exclaimed Monday afternoon (Dec. 11) on Instagram. The small sample finds 50 in his element, spewing aggressive bars alongside Minaj’s braggadocious energy.
The song is available on Minaj’s website for digital purchase and will hit streaming at midnight on Monday night. Minaj and 50 first teased the collaboration — their first ever — on Friday following the release of Pink Friday 2. After wishing his fellow Queens rep a happy birthday on social media, Minaj swiftly requested 50 to “send that verse in sir.”
Minaj is keeping her promise of delivering new music shortly after the release of her fifth studio album. Last week on social media, she vowed to drop a song every day until this Friday. “Next week #GagCity welcomes a new edition every day beginning Monday or Tuesday,” Minaj tweeted. “Every day until Friday, you’ll get an [additional] song that completes my fave body of work to date. 4 more songs.”
Pink Friday 2 features Drake, Lil Wayne, Lil Uzi Vert, J. Cole, Future and more. Minaj praised the latter after notching another fiery collaboration with “Nicki Hendrix” and revealed that the two have another record in the stash.
“Future’s versatility isn’t talked about enough,” Minaj shared on X last week. “And does it all in the most authentic way. While keeping his mystique. Not only is this one of my all time fave songs, but I have another rlly dope hard rap jawn wit him too. NxtWeek. Love him & he always holds me down in #Gagcity.
