Nicki Minaj is willing to play nice.

The rapper agreed to be a guest on New York City’s Hot 97 morning radio show yesterday, in an effort to clear the air and squash her almost year-long beef with DJ Peter Rosenberg, and it looked like the duo made some good progress.

After throwing some shade at the “Starships” rapper before she hit the Summer Jam stage last year—causing Minaj to pull out of the show completely—Rosenberg explained himself to the best of his ability, and wanted to make it clear that he would never speak ill of Minaj as a person.

He even shared a memory from back in the day when Nicki first got in the game, recalling that he went up to give her props and predicted that she could take over the rap game.

Minaj didn’t remember all that, but she did appreciate him taking the time to set the record straight, and simply said, “It’s water under the bridge…I mean it’s so long ago. I can’t even act like I care anymore, but I appreciate you guys having me.”

She also added that, “In hindsight…I should’ve just did the show,” and to explain why she took such offense to Rosenberg’s comment, Nicki said, “I never found you funny. I never found you entertaining. I never found you smart. I just found you annoying…To me you don’t have enough of a resumé to make those comments.”

Yes, sounds kinda harsh, but we promise that peace was made, and there might even be a possibility that Barbz will see Nicki perform at the 2013 Summer Jam concert on Sunday.

If the rumors are to believed, Nicki Minaj soon won’t have American Idol as a platform with which she can reach young fans.

She’ll be off the show almost as soon as Season 12 concludes.

But the eccentric singer does cover the latest issue of Teen Vogue, hoping her past experiences can shape the future of many followers out there.

“Every time my parents fought, my mother would have us move and I would have to go to a new school, which meant I’d have to face the task of making new friends,”

Nicki said, adding:

“I encountered jealous girls a lot. What it came down to is that the bullies wanted me to bow down to them and I just wouldn’t.”

Minaj said she got into a few fights, yet everyone knew she was not going to be “pushed around.”

But the artist has taken a different approach with virtual criticism, saying of negative messages across various social media networks:

“I used to read the bad things people said about me. Then I asked myself, ‘Why am I reading that when I have millions of people saying great things?’ You cannot give negativity power.”

Hear that, younger generation?

“I tell teens… If people keep taunting you and you keep reading it, it’s poison,” Minaj said.

Makes perfect sense to us.

Nicki Minaj has revealed plans to “focus on rap” for her next studio album.

The singer has discussed plans for her third outing, explaining that she aims to avoid making pop songs for the new collection.

“I was thinking if I really wanted to, I could go back and make another pop song… but I’m choosing not to do it,” Minaj told US radio station Hot 97.

“I’m choosing to get back to my essence and feed the core hip-hop fan. I feel like I need this because it’s just a more powerful platform for me. Even when I’m on stage performing my rap songs, it’s more organic.”

She added: “I’ve been getting back to that place where I was before I dropped my first album which is ‘kill, kill, kill, kill, kill, kill everything’. I agree that Nicki Minaj should focus on rap… now.
”
However, the star insisted that she does not regret releasing pop tracks, saying: “I wanted to experiment. My whole career has been a playing field to try new things.

“I never put a limit on myself. You should be able to try whatever the hell you want, as long as you keep your integrity.”

Minaj’s new collection will serve as the follow-up to 2012’s Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded, which topped the US and UK charts.
