Anaconda Photos: Nicki Minaj Covers The Fader's Fall Fashion Edition

Both the Barbz and the Beyhive are still buzzing since Nicki Minaj and Beyoncé broke the internet with their “Flawless” remix that was released at the wee hours of Sunday night. Miss Minaj talks about her evolution, her “no shade” BET Awards speech, Lil Wayne and being a boss-ass businesswoman
Excerpts:

On Lil Wayne:

“Now we can have conversations and enjoy each other,” she says. “But I don’t think I’ll ever feel like he’s my peer because of how much he’s done for me. I’ll always think of him like…Like the king. I give Wayne credit because he saw me and pretty much picked me out of a lineup, and he knew enough to run with Drake as well. From early on, he was so generous with helping younger artists, and it paid off well for him.”
