Nicki Minaj and Drake Unveil Video For ‘Moment 4 Life’

Rap music’s current golden child Nicki Minaj has unveiled the video for her latest single, ‘Moment 4 life’. The song, which features contributions from R&B star Drake is the third to be released from her debut album ‘Pink Friday’.
The video is a fairy tale experiment featuring lavish dresses, a glamorous palace and enough jewellery to shake a stick at. Taking a plot turn or two from the classic story Cinderella, the narrative depicts all the joy of the ball without the nasty 'having to leave at midnight' business.
Eagle-eyed viewers will also notice an appearance from Minaj’s maternal rapping alter-ego ‘Martha Zolanski’, who appears in an opening skit in the form of the rapper's Fairy Godmother. Those who are fans of the impressively bad English accent can also listen to the opening speech in Kanye West’s ‘Dark Fantasy’, which was also performed by Minaj.
‘Moment 4 Life’ was made available in physical and digital form in December. You can view the video below:
