Rap-Up.com || Nicki Minaj and Rihanna’s ‘Fly’ Video to Take Off Memorial Day Weekend

There’s been a flight delay. Nicki Minaj and Rihanna fans will have to wait a little longer to see the visuals for the ladies’ collaboration “Fly.” The video won’t make its debut until Memory Day weekend. Nicki explains why.

Since both women dropped their albums in November, the Young Money rapper wants to wait and let Rihanna continue to shine before premiering the “Fly” video in late May.

“I’m gonna hold off on the Rihanna video and the Rihanna single for a little bit longer,” she told MTV News. “‘Cause we both kind of dropped at the same time. So she has a lot of [songs] in rotation and I want to let her stuff have a moment and do its thing, dominate radio. [Instead], I wanted to come out with something more fun.”

When the Sanaa Hamri-directed clip does arrive, she promises big things. “The Rihanna video is a freakin’ epic movie and you know it’s been done for like a month, two months now—very long time,” she added. “Look for it around Memorial Day weekend.”

In the meantime, the head Barb will release the video for “Super Bass,” a single off the deluxe edition of Pink Friday. “I’m taking it back to a few things that I’ve done, it’s a lot more fun,” shared Nicki. “It will be my most fun video and my most carefree video, lots of eye candy and lots of beefcakes.”

, So where’s the video at for “Fly” tho, memorial day has passed, it been passed. like 2 months now. What’s the hold up…I hope Nicki Minaj hasn’t forgotten bout releasing that video now since she’s focus on the tour w/ Britney tho. That video is much anticipated, it has been for awhile tho. We need a update Nicki, seriouly tho.
