She also linked up with Soca legends Machel Montano and Destra just days after the release of their electric remix collab “Shake the Place.”
“She’s not just the queen of rap, she’s a queen period,” said Destra in the clip of their link-up, with Minaj adding, “Queen tings, king tings. That’s all that comes out of Trinidad!”
