Before all the glitz and the glamour Nicki Minaj was a real hard spitter from Queens, New York known for appearances on the Come Up DVD series.
This video is a nice surprise and a reminder of how much she's changed over the years. When she repeats the phrase "Dirty Money" she's not talking about Diddy's group. She's referring to the name Come Up DVD CEO Big Fendi owns.

David Haye punches Dereck Chisora with glass bottle in his hand
Videos and Pics After The Jump
WBC heavyweight champion Vitali Klitschko defeated challenger Dereck Chisora by unanimous decision in Munich, Germany Saturday (February 18), but it was the events that took place at the post fight press conference that has the boxing world buzzing.
Chisora got into a brawl with David Haye, who retired from boxing after losing to Wladimir Klitschko last year.
The entire brawl was caught on tape as well as the dialogue between the two. Check it out below.
Bernd Boente, manager of Vitali and Wladimir Klitschko: With the bad experience we've had with British fighters, we will now look for other countries. Contrary to David Haye, Dereck Chisora really went for it. He really tried.
David Haye (from rear of the room): You don't want to fight David Haye, no?
Boente: You had an offer. You didn't accept it. Now you are out. You are out. Out, out, out. You cannot talk yourself back into the fight; you have no belts. Chisora showed heart, contrary to you. You showed your toe [referring to Haye's toe injury].
Haye: I accepted your offer in December.
Dereck Chisora: We'll get it on in London – be quiet. David Haye is an embarrassment, Sky Sports don't do Box Office any more because of David Haye. He messed it up for all those young fighters coming through. I'm going to give you two slaps for that. If Haye is a fighter, he should fight me.
Haye: You've lost three fights in a row (actually three of his last four).
Chisora: Let's fight.
Chisora's promoter Frank Warren: I've got a great idea. If Dereck fights David, the winner fights Vitali.
Boente: Sounds like the perfect plan.
Haye: Vitali said he could knock me out, do you think you can knock me out?
Chisora's trainer Don Charles: Be quiet, can security get him out of here?
Haye: Vitali said after his last fight, 'I want to fight David Haye'. Where is he now? He said he wanted to fight me, I agreed the money, I agreed everything in December.
Chisora: How's your toe? How's your toe? How's your toe?
Haye: You've lost your last three fights, you lost to Tyson Fury. You're a loser.
Chisora: Tell that to my face. I'm coming down, tell that to my face.
[Chisora leaves podium and heads into the audience to confront Haye and the two start fighing]
Chisora: (Shouting and indicating towards Haye). He glassed me. I swear to God, David, I am going to shoot you. I am going to shoot you. I am going to physically shoot David Haye. He glassed me. He glassed me. He glassed me. I'm not having it. He glassed me.
Chisora: (Referring to Booth's cut) I'm sorry about that. Adam [Haye's trainer], your fighter glassed me.
Booth: I want to know who glassed me [bleeding from the head]
Chisora: As you were trying to hold your fighter away, he [Haye] probably glassed you by mistake.
Booth: You hit me with a bottle.
Chisora: David had a bottle in his hand.
Booth: No, no, David didn't hit me with a bottle. I want to know who glassed me. Someone hit me with a bottle.
Booth: Vitali, you are a great fighter but your manager is an embarrassment to the sport. Congratulations for winning.
Chisora: (Addressing Booth) Either we do it in the ring or outside of the ring. Because I want him. If David don't fight me, Adam, I am telling you the God's honest truth, I am going to physically burn him. So you tell him I said that. I am going to find him.

If DMX wants to move forward with plans to tour Europe he first will have to clear up the matter of a $1 million dollar child support debt.
TMZ is reporting the rapper is being prevented from leaving the country by a law prohibiting a parent owing a substantial amount of child support from obtaining a passport.
One of Dark Man's ex's, Patricia Trejo, told L.A. Superior Court last week that X owes ten years worth of child support for their daughter and she wants him to start paying up now.
X says he isn't sure if the child is his and wants a DNA test before he makes payments causing the stalemate.
DMX reportedly has at least 10 children.

On what had to be an incredibly stressful day for both the Brown and Houston families singer Bobby Brown left the funeral of his ex wife Whitney Houston before the service had barely gotten underway.
TMZ is reporting that Brown had been approved by Houston's family to attend the funeral with two other people, but showed up with nine instead. He also wanted to sit with his and Whitney's daughter, Bobbi Kristina, but wasn't allowed to.
Brown issued a statement afterwards through his publicist.
My children and I were invited to the funeral of my ex-wife Whitney Houston. We were seated by security and then subsequently asked to move on three separate occasions. I fail to understand why security treated my family this way and continue to ask us and no one else to move. Security then prevented me from attempting to see my daughter Bobbi-Kristina. In light of the events, I gave a kiss to the casket of my ex-wife and departed as I refused to create a scene. My children are completely distraught over the events. This was a day to honor Whitney. I doubt Whitney would have wanted this to occur. I will continue to pay my respects to my ex-wife the best way I know how.
After the funeral Rev. Al Sharpton was asked if Brown had been a distraction by a member of the press.
"Bishop Jakes and I spoke with him. He showed nothing but love and respect for Whitney," Sharpton said. "I wish people would leave Bobby alone."

Jeremy Lin is like a lot of other 23-year old guys in some ways. He loves sports and hip-hop. But he's also quite unique. He's a star player in the world's biggest media market and he shuns mainstream music for Christian.
In a recent interview with Fuse, the New York Knicks guard spoke about what artist's are on his current playlist.
"An artist you gotta check out is Lecrae, he's a Christian rapper, just raps a lot about the Gospel, and about Christian music," Lin said. "I really enjoy his lyrics as well, so if you're a big lyrics guy, I think that'd be a good fit for you. I listen to something that mellows me out. Hillsong is a Christian band, and they play a lotta contemporary Christian music. I listen to them to remind myself why I'm playing the game, and remind myself I'm playing to glorify God. I really try to just focus on that. I try not to get too hyped up otherwise I find myself kinda burned out before the game or going into the game with a little too much energy playing out of character. So I try to slow it down a little bit."
