Nicki Minaj has drawn a strong response online after posting a faith-focused message on X on 30 August, saying she would not 'turn back' because she wants to see Jesus 'some day.' The rapper shared the message with her millions of followers, prompting fans to praise her public expression of Christianity and call for a gospel project.
The post uses lyrics from the traditional Caribbean gospel song 'I've Got My Mind Made Up,' which has also been performed by gospel singer Donnie McClurkin as part of his 'Caribbean Medley.' Minaj did not announce a new album or other music project in the post, and the message contained no artwork, release date or other promotional material.
