Save your money. Ester Dean is only interested in your time on “Gimmie Money,” her collaboration with Nicki Minaj. The two previously worked together on Nicki’s smash single “Super Bass.”
An Auto-Tuned Ester declares her financial independence on the synth-heavy beat, while the Young Money diva comes through with a jet-setting verse. “I’m up in Hong Kong rocking Shojono Tomo/ Lobster sushi rolls, with a side of soy sauce/ Chopsticks, you know we don’t give a fork,” she raps.
Ester is considering releasing the song as a single from her Interscope Records debut. “If you guys Love Gimmie Money ft Nicki Minaj as my Single let’s get it Trending #GimmieMoney,” she tweeted.

@Jordan K., She’s egging on a stupid feud, intentionally being controversial to get attention, and making whatever is guaranteed to get her a pop hit. Super Bass seemed genuine, Starships is so transparent… I can’t. Good music, whether I’d like it or not, is the last thing she’s focusing on.

Steve Reply:
February 21st, 2012 at 5:32 pm
@DRB, You can’t judge her “New music” as a whole until the new album comes out. Once a WHOLE album drops with more music, it would be easier to judge her. Because if you had judge her last year before her 1st album came out you would’ve never heard songs like “Super Bass”, so you can’t say what she’s focusing on JUST yet.

@WOW, She’s be saying for years that Jay-Z was her biggest influences. She also sounds a lot like Foxy Brown who’s basically the female Jay. People was to quick to say Nicki was influenced soley by Kim she was really influenced the most by Jay & Foxy. You can hear Foxy all in Nicki’s first mixtape. Nicki’s a sly Fox and the girl knows her Hip-Hop. Don’t sleep on her.

@Boy Wonder, agreed! IMO nicki is a flow master. Lil wayne and busta rhymes also have crazy flows but i think what makes nicki better is that she can switch it up (fast, slow, patwa,and Roman). Roman should def get his own category lol.
MY Top 5 best flows
Eminem
Missy
Nicki

The beat sounds like Keri Hilson’s “Lose Control” but it’s actually really good. Ester Dean is in a great spot in the industry because she knows if she doesn’t succeed as an artist she is always going to be banking money off her songwriting credits. Nicki’s verse is SICK! Best I’ve heard from her in awhile.

I think the reason i find this just ok is because i’m already use to Rihanna singing Ester songs. Good to see Ester steppin’ from behind the scenes but i think she should do something different from what she does for Rihanna so that she can blow up because this reminds me too much of Rihanna although Ester writes for Rihanna, i just prefer Rihanna doing it.
