Though Nicki Minaj has often been accused of biting Lil Kim‘s style and flow — which resulted in a whole lot of drama and a feud that hasn’t really ended yet — the Harajuku Barbie insists her biggest influence is actually Foxy Brown. When Minaj got to perform with Brown at her Roseland Ballroom show, it pretty much blew her own mind.
There’s no question that Nicki Minaj‘s Barbz (aka her fans) idolize their queen. They go heavy on Twitter for her and are front and center at every show, so during an interview with U.K.’s Kiss FM, the Harajuku Barbie was asked who she idolized growing up in New York.
