Nicki Minaj, one of the most acclaimed and best-selling female rappers of all time, had a game plan for her life, and it involved having a husband and at least one baby, possibly two, by the time she released her fifth studio album.

Minaj married the husband, Kenneth “Zoo” Petty, in 2019, after first dating him as a teenager. The Super Bass singer also had her first baby in October 2020, and recently, she tweeted that she’s working on her fifth album.
