Nicki Minaj Describes 'The Pinkprint' As 'Emotional Roller Coaster'


. (Radio.com) Nicki Minaj is gearing up to tell her truth in a new MTV documentary. The doc, called Nicki Minaj: My Time Again, follows the Queens rapper as she records her latest album, The Pinkprint.

"I didn't know this album would entail and emotional roller coaster," Minaj says to kick off the trailer. In the minute long teaser, fans see Minaj at work, doing things like putting the finishing touches on her album and getting ready for her MTV Video Music Awards performance of "Anaconda." The clip even highlights her wardrobe malfunction and unfortunate snake biting incident, which Minaj seems quite concerned about.

She also lets her dancers know about what it was liking working as a waitress at Red Lobster, telling she had to steal bread to get by. She hangs out with her grandma, gets called the best rapper and praises donuts.

But the most interesting thing in the trailer may be Minaj sharing some real talk about overcoming adversity in the music business. "When I'm faced with crazy adversities, I turn on a switch I don't even know I have sometimes," Minaj explains as a shot of her wiping away a few tears pops up. "Every human needs to push themselves to the point of breaking sometimes. If you never break you never know how much pressure you can take."

The doc will air Sunday, January 18 at 10 pm on MTV. It's the follow-up to her doc, My Time Now, which aired on the network in 2013. Watch the trailer for Nicki Minaj: My Time Again here.
