Nicki Minaj surprised her Barbz with an appearance from the legendary Beenie Man during the London stop of her Pink Friday 2 World Tour.
Minaj hit the UK city earlier this week, and much like many of her prior stops, she had some treats for audience. Not only did Beenie pop out to perform some of his biggest hits including “Dude” and “Rum & Red Bull,” but she also brought out Stylo G and Giggs.
Reflecting on her moment with the dancehall icon following the show, Nicki wrote on X (formerly Twitter), “I just performed with the KING OF DANCEHALL. One of the most talented musicians that I looked to for inspiration my entire career. I can’t believe this is my life sometimes. Wow. came to #GAGCITYLONDON yall!!!!!!! One of my heroes. I love this man so much. @KingBeenieMan.”
In an Instagram post with photos and videos from the night, she added: “#GagCityLONDON what’s left to be said that I haven’t yet said about my ‘2nd home’ London in 15 years? I adore you. I do. Always have. One of my biggest music heroes came out for me last night. He’s inspired me well b4 & beyond my 1st album. Thank you, King. @kingbeenieman Thank you @officialstylog & @officialgiggs London, I’ll see you @ again @ wireless real soon.”
Nicki Minaj has been on the road for months now with her Pink Friday 2 world tour – and she just extended it for an additional 22 dates on a second North American run.
After teasing the additional stops by revealing the cities earlier this month, she announced 22 more stops in an Instagram post on Wednesday (May 29).
The trek will kick off in September in Philadelphia and hit major cities across the United States including Washington, DC, Miami, Dallas, Los Angeles and more before wrapping up in her hometown of Queens in October.
The prior leg didn’t have an official LA stop as the New York native’s performance at Rolling Loud served as her SoCal date, so she’s making up for it this round with back-to-back nights in the City of Angels.
Head here for the full list of new dates.
