The October/November cover of Complex magazine will be featuring Nicki Minaj on the cover. The feature includes an interview where Nicki speaks about her sexuality, Drake and much more. Attached below are photos from the spread, video footage from the shoot and  snippets of the interview.

“When I rap, it’s just an extension of how I speak, and that’s how I talk. If you don’t like it, don’t listen. I’m also not going to explain something just because I said it in a rap. Take what you want from it. [In the press] I didn’t say [I don't like women]. I said I don’t have sex with women. I don’t have sex with men right now either. If [bisexual is] what they wanna call me, then fine.”

Last night at The Social in Downtown Orlando, Florida was the album release party of hip-hop duo, Grey Matter’s newest self-titled album. The event was opened by Tzarizm and Midaz the Beast. Since I was in attendance, I brought back some pictures and videos from the event. I’m all about real hip-hop and music that tells a story and that’s exactly what I heard at this event. The duo consists of one MC and one DJ/Producer, Tempermental and Illustrate. Check out the tracks below and video footage after the jump.
