The new music video featuring Nicki Minaj, Drake and Lil Wayne is visually interesting and accompanied with a great, smooth rap.
No Frauds is a diss at rapper Remy Ma. There can only be one queen and both Nicki and Remy aim for that position. Nicki has not held back to make clear she deserves that title.
Nicki carries her role like she was born a queen. The beginning scene features Nicki’s stunning costumes and key-locations in London. As some might have realised, the footage at the Westminster Bridge location has sparked social media reactions, criticizing the decision of using those shots after the earlier Westminster terror attack. Note that Nicki filmed at the location one day before the tragedy, March 22.

Each rapper brings their own style to the video which is respectable. Here it does, however, slightly dampen the video’s flow. For instance, the club scene with Drake and Nicki was enjoyable but how well did it fit in with the rest of the video? Contrary to Lil Wayne’s cooperative scenes with Nicki which look more natural and in sync.
Overall, the music video makes for a song we can add to our play-and-repeat list.
