Ep. 49: Examining the Up and Down Career of Nicki Minaj

This week on Catch Up, James and Jordan take a look at the career of a wildly talented yet maddeningly inconsistent rap star, Nicki Minaj. The two talk about Minaj’s early days as a member of the HoodStars, her breakthrough as a part of Young Money, her incredible track record as a featured artist, and her uneven collection of studio albums.  Catch Up is hosted by Jordan Sowunmi and James Rathbone, and is produced by Kyle Fulton.
