Women who Nicki Minaj   rap are in an odd gendered space Nicki Minaj  to begin with, given that rap music has historically been Nicki Minaj  very male, and sometimes very misogynistic Nicki Minaj 

To carve out a place Nicki Minaj  for themselves in the hip-hop Nicki Minaj  scene, as CNN pop culture critic Toure pointed out, they are often forced to Nicki Minaj  choose between the personas Nicki Minaj  of “tomboys or boy toys Nicki Minaj 

Both identities define Nicki Minaj  women by their Nicki Minaj  relationships to men and masculinity. Lil’ Kim and Minaj include elements Nicki Minaj  of each in their personality repertoires.Nicki Minaj 

When the rappers Nicki Minaj  include Barbie in their personae Nicki Minaj  toolkits, they create a third identity–beyond swaggering tomboy  Nicki Minaj  and sexual boy toy–intended to reach Nicki Minaj girls  and women Nicki Minaj 

But as they Nicki Minaj  incorporate personas that Nicki Minaj  involve different performances of gender, they upset rigid definitions Nicki Minaj  of how women in hip-hop are Nicki Minaj  supposed to behave. Nicki Minaj 

Take the dual parts Nicki Minaj plays in the music video “Monster.” Nicki Minaj ’s both a vampire dominatrix, growling and howling, and a Nicki Minaj Barbie -esque girl with a high-pitched Nicki Minaj  voice and white wedding dress.Nicki Minaj  

. By fracturing herself in two, Nicki Minaj  shows that either neither one is the real her–or else both of them are. Similarly, Nicki Minaj  Lil’ Kim is both a woman who Nicki Minaj  calls herself Barbie and a woman who raps about going Nicki Minaj  to jail and identifying with Malcolm X.Nicki Minaj
