Nicki Minaj Will Headline A Music Festival In Saudi This Month And The Reaction Has Been CRAZY
Singer and rapper Nicki Minaj is scheduled to headline a music festival that’s the first of its kind in Saudi Arabia’s coastal city of Jeddah this month.
Fans are ecstatic, while some are confused- seeing as it is unlike the conservative country to host such events.
The news comes only a few weeks after popular Dubai club, White, announced it was launching a new venue in Jeddah- which was quickly followed by backlash, when it actually opened as a lounge rather than a club.

The response by residents are wild
…as one would expect.
Some are ecstatic for the rapper’s performance
‘Interesting’
A lot of peeps seem to be confused
Since the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia announced plans for Vision 2030, one of its major aims is to loosen up restriction on entertainment.
Perhaps, people who are familiar with Nicki Minaj’ music, concerts and outfits are wondering how exactly she’ll perform in front of that audience.
Saudi’s changes in two year’s time have caused reaction everywhere
Dubai residents got in on the conversation too..
