The U.K. baddie and the Barbie once again prove to be a formidable duo teaming for the new song named “Boyz.” Sampling Diddy’s 2001 anthem “Bad Boy for Life.” The nostalgia doesn’t stop there they’ve also remade the music video, complete with a cameo from the Bad Boy icon himself.
Jesy Nelson, the British singer best known for her tenure as a member of Little Mix, is now stepping into a solo career with some controversy on social media following the release of “Boyz” as she has been accused of blackfishing.
The video itself does a great job paying homage to the song that was sampled, and even recreating icon scenes from the “Bad Boy for Life.” Nicki shouts out Puff Daddy & The Family in her verse. “Bad bitches want a Bad Boy / Word to Biggie, Diddy, and Ma$e,” she raps. “Whoa like Rob, won’t find a prettier face / He gon’ keep my VVS’s dancin’ like Total / So I could just Shyne while he shoot up the place.”
Nicki previously collaborated with Little Mix on the 2018 song “Woman Like Me.” She recently joined Bia on a remix of her single “Whole Lotta Money.” Earlier this year, she brought her 2009 mixtape Beam Me Up Scotty to streaming services with the new Drake and Lil Wayne–featuring the single “Seeing Green.” She also joined Polo G on the new song “For the Love of New York.”
