Nicki Minaj Considers College Comeback: Rapper Eyes Academic Pursuits

Nicki Minaj is an innovative rapper, famous not only for her lyrical genius but also for her charismatic persona. Ranging from this passion, she recently let the bomb drop: she is thinking of going back to college to get a degree. This really turned the possible academic journey into one of excitement for her fans-most of them, anyway-who regard her commitment to personal growth and education. All these years later, the idea of going back to school to Minaj has very little to do with earning a degree but more so with knowing she can do it-fulfilling that long-ago goal she left unexplored after graduating from New York City’s elite Fiorello H. LaGuardia High School of Music & Art and Performing Arts.

Minaj started her education in LaGuardia, a highly known institution for the expression and shaping of artistic abilities in the arts-a school she maximally used to fine-tune her skills in the performing arts, hence throwing her into stardom. In fact, she has spoken candidly about regret as pertains to never having had the experience of college, despite the success. In recent interviews, Minaj expressed her desire to go back to college. She had made it known in as many ways as possible just how much college schooling means to her. “Education is something I think every young person should take seriously,” she once quipped, underlining her respect for education as a bedrock for growth and self-discovery.

Through this reflection, she has continued to shape her interaction with her fans because, on many occasions, Minaj herself urged her fans to focus on their studies. More so, on several occasions, she even reaches out to her followers on a regular basis with words of encouragement to stay in school and pursue academic dreams. Her drive to uplifts her fans with her commitment to learning, which she demonstrated with her 2017 #StudentOfTheGame initiative on Twitter. With it, Minaj promised to pay for tuition fees and education expenses of fans with good grades, a pledge in which her donations helped reach countless educational landmarks the world over. This kind act finally nailed her reputation as an advocate of education and supporter of the youth in pursuit of realizing their potential.

And lately, her thoughts about continuing higher education have been loved by her fans, who dreamingly looked at her return to college as an example of how learning can be really lifelong. Several people came forward to appreciate her intention of keeping education in front of her extremely busy professional life.

She is already a queen in the rap game, but going back to college shows she is also a queen when it comes to her values,” an online commenter wrote. Others see her move as confirmation that it is never too late to follow personal goals, no matter how successful one has currently become. Minaj has voiced that she is determined her new academic ambitions properly balanced with career and family life, most likely because her life can get super busy. She will prove once again that success and education can go together. This might be a personal milestone for her-of college-but it is something more: a message of empowerment to her fans that it will never be too late to invest in one’s dreams.
