The footage of the full 1-hour interview between Nicki Minaj and Zane Lowe for Beats 1 Radio on Apple Music has now been released, which you can watch below.

During their conversation, the Barbie discussed why she stepped away from social media, her forthcoming fourth studio album, changing her phone number, JAY Z, if she knew her “Monster” verse would be iconic, Drake always giving her advice, Cardi B, what went on with “Motor Sport“, Azealia Banks, Foxy Brown, Lil Wayne, and still being nervous to play her new music for Wayne because he is the “greatest rapper that ever lived”.

Before premiering her new singles “Barbie Tingz” and “Chun-Li“, Nicki also added that she is currently shooting a new documentary which will drop with her new album, being quiet during the Drizzy vs. Meek Mill beef, the Tunechi vs. Birdman situation, getting ready to go back on tour, and plenty more. Tune and Baby even called into the interview to speak all about Minaj!
