00:00First up we have Nicki Minaj. The rapper collaborated with Nike to create the pink
00:07print Jordans. Nicki gave her barbs a sneak peek of the kicks on Instagram while taking
00:11what some may say a shot at Kanye West and his Yeezy boost when she captioned, Yeezys
00:16ain't seeing these. So, should we shade Nicki for potentially shading Kanye or do we slay
00:22the pink princess for making great business moves in a male-dominated industry? On the
00:25count of three, what say you? One, two, three. Ooh, we have a shade, a slate, and a shade.
00:31Okay, I'm gonna start with you first, Ms. Ambrose. Talk to me. Why the shade? Darling, the
00:37shade was all over that moment. I mean, she didn't even, she didn't mince words. No.
00:41Anytime you're gonna draw a reference to someone who's also in that same category,
00:46it's shade. I mean, it wasn't even slight shade. It was like clear lens shade. It was
00:53like transition shade. Absolutely. She put a shade on this front lawn. It's like go out
00:56in the sun shade and then just transition. Just went straight forward. I mean, Nicki does
01:01it really well, though. She does. Her shade is slayed. She's got slayed the shade. Yeah,
01:07she slayed the shade. She did a two-for-one. You know what? Honestly, Nicki Minaj is preparing
01:11to take over the world. You know what I mean? She did American Idol, Super Bowl, her music's
01:16amazing. So it just makes sense that, like, she would further extend her brand. You know?
01:22And I mean, I get it. I love pink. Why not? So you're just looking at it from the business,
01:27the business perspective. Totally. I think it's a great opportunity for her. Okay. Look,
01:31what the worst place? What say you, sir? What say you? I'm gonna go with June on the shade
01:36on this one. I agree with you that Nicki is smart in slaying her business. However, that
01:43shoe is terrible. It's not, she's always been very meticulous about curating her looks and the way
01:49that she looks in her career. But that shoe is bad. It doesn't even look like, and I'm a Jordan
01:54fanatic. Maybe she's kind of going back to when she started when she was very animated and cartoon.
02:00So is it kind of more commendable inspired? Kind of going back to that cartoony, you know?
02:05But back in the 90s, I did a lot of Missy Elliott kind of cartoon stuff. I've been there, where
02:09I was a shiny suit girl. So I get, oh, she's a shiny suit girl. I feel like it's a target.
02:12It's like a very targeted consumer. It's a 90s throwback. You know what? And like, she has
02:17fans, Jordan has fans. It's a perfect marriage. But I feel like this is perfect marriage. That
02:21color palette. At the end of the day, they're a very targeted audience that she's reaching. And
02:25I heard the sneakers have wheels. The dollar slate. We'll say that. I was like, do they? I was like,
02:29is that a scoop? I just reinvented it. Going to the airport with slack. We'll say that her
02:34dollar is slayed. The dollar is slayed. The dollar is shade. Okay. I'll take that two for
02:39one.
