An emotional Nicki Minaj took to social media Thursday evening (December 7) to express her gratitude to one of her collaborators, Finneas. The eight-time Grammy winner, who also happens to be Billie Eilish’s brother, co-wrote the Pink Friday 2 intro.
“Welp that did it for me…crying in less than 25 seconds of the intro,” she wrote on X. “Again. Finneas, if this finds you in #GagCity, God bless you I haven’t even been able to tell you about ALL the geniuses on this project.”
During a recent interview with Vogue, Nicki Minaj explained that she took a different approach on Pink Friday 2. “When I look back at a lot of my music, I’m like, Oh, my God, where was the me in it?” she shared. “So, for this album, I went back to the old game plan.”
