American rapper, singer, songwriter and model, Onika Tanya Maraj, known professionally as Nicki Minaj, just put designers who appropriate black style on blast.
According to NY Post, the female MC was having an electrifying performance at Philipp Plein’s celeb-studded show, and she invited other black acts, including Rae Sremmurd, Yo Gotti and 21 Savage, on stage with her.
Dressed in PVC pants, thigh-high boots, an army jacket and new signature knee-lenght hair, the Pinkprint rapper performed some of her his collaborative songs, including No Flags and Rake it Up.
While addressing the crowd which included 50 Cent, Paris Hilton, Fabolous, Ne-Yo and Bella Thorne, the rapper called out the fashion world for its exploitative practices.
“Thank you, Philipp Plein, for including our culture,” said Minaj, who had attended other fashion shows last week. “Designers get really big and really rich off of our culture, and then you don’t see a motherf - - ker that look anything like us in the front row half the time. So let’s make some noise for Philipp Plein tonight.”
This is not the first time she would be calling out designers, however, this time, she carried her rant to the New York Fashion Show.
