Congratulations To The Queen of Rap
UPDATE (15/10/2020): What's the gender of Nicki Minaj's baby? It's a baby boy! In a series of Instagram pictures shared by Nicki Minaj, close friends including the Queen B, Kanye West, Kim Kardashian-West, Winnie Harlow, and more, congratulated the rapper for her recent birth.
"Congratulations on your new baby boy... he's sure to fill your hearts with love," a message read from Karol. The article will continue to read as initially written, as there are no more updates from herein.
Nicki Minaj, 37, welcomed her first child with her husband Kenneth "Zoo" Petty, 47, on 30th September. For some of you who have noticed, you're probably wondering why we've written this so late (3 days later), and not at the point of breaking news. Well, quite frankly, maintenance was very tedious.
Regardless of our incredible endeavours to make Tanizzle "great again," even though we've been around for 10 months now LOL, here's our belated felicitations to the "Queen of Rap," Nicki Minaj and her bubby Kenneth.
In case you missed it, the "Anaconda" rapper gave birth on 30th September, in Los Angeles, after several media outlets reported the information, including E! Online. Nicki, real name Onika Tanya Maraj-Petty, broke the internet by announcing her pregnancy with a series of baby bump pictures on Instagram, in July.
The "Pink Friday" lyricist captioned her first post remarkably simple, with the hashtag "#Preggers." The accompanying image showed the YMCMB heavyweight glowing gracefully, whilst holding her protruding stomach. Following her first post, Nicki then posted an image of herself laying on a couch, in a similar environment.
"Love. Marriage. Baby carriage. Overflowing with excitement & gratitude. Thank you all for the well wishes," the multi-platinum selling artist wrote.
What's Nicki Minaj's Baby Name?
As of writing, Nicki Minaj and her husband Kenneth Petty haven't revealed their baby's name to the public, however, we do know that she gave birth to a boy, considering the update above.
Well wishers included a slew of celebrity pals and Barb fans worldwide. Nicki's mother, Carol Maraj, shared a beautiful art piece showing her daughter cradling her new born, designed by a fan. In an Instagram post, the Founder of the Carol Maraj Foundation, an organisation that advocates for domestic violence survivors, said: "Thank you Lord for Blessing my daughter @nickiminaj with a beautiful bundle of joy!
"You have always been a Blessing to myself and your family, and now you have received one of the best Blessings from God."
She concluded, "'Children are a gift from the Lord. They are a reward from Him.' Psalms 127:3 #glamma let us rejoice!!!!"
On the topic of parenting and the discretion of revealing names or genders, Zayn Malik and Gigi Hadid's baby name still hasn't been announced. We don't think it's a trend among celebs, but how on earth do such things keep concealed, especially with the "all-seeing" TMZ around?
Regardless of names or genders, their entitled to privacy. And on that note, congratulations to all parents who have recently welcomed children.
