Nicki Minaj graces the front cover of the August 2013 issue of Marie Claire magazine, which you can view above. The issue will be available to purchase on newsstands next week (July 16th).

Hit the jump to watch some behind the scenes footage from the Young Money Barbie‘s cover shoot with Marie Claire. She also spoke on what she currently has on her DVR, what she keeps on her nightstand, which apps she has on her iPhone, what item she purchases every day, how she made her very first dollar, and more!

Above, you can watch some footage of Swizz Beatz bringing out Tyga, Allen Iverson, Dominique Wilkins and Rick Ross at the 2012 Magic Convention in Las Vegas, Nevada that took place back in August.

They all sit down and talk about the next wave of Reebok Classics designs and T-Raw explains why he is excited to be apart of the upcoming Reebok Retro release.

Tyga spent last night answering a few questions from his fans on Twitter. One fan asked when he plans to drop his Well Done 3 mixtape and he answered: “next week”. Another fan asked when we can be expecting his and Chris Brown‘s Fan Of A Fan 2 album and he answered: “dropping 1st next month”.

I am guessing that Tygaman means him and Chris will be dropping a single from the project on August 1st, because they have both said that Fan Of A Fan 2 will be an album and there is no way they can drop the whole thing in 4 days! Or either T-Raw forgot to put “single” after “1st”, which would mean that we will be getting a single sometime in August.

So it looks like August will be a great month for new music from YMCMB with Lil Wayne‘s Dedication 4 mixtape, Tyga‘s Well Done 3 mixtape, Shanell‘s Nobody’s Bitch mixtape, Flow‘s Wolf mixtape, Jae Millz‘ Dead Presidents mixtape and Cory Gunz‘ That’s WTF I’m Talkin’ ‘Bout mixtape all dropping.
