Lately,  it seems as though rapper, Nicki Minaj, is reinventing her image to branch out across multiple demographics.   We are used to seeing her glammed up to portray a modern-day Barbie,  but in recent months she has successfully toned her image down to reflect a more natural beauty.  Her change has lead to more opportunities outside of rapping.

Nicki is in the latest issue of L’Uomo Vogue, the male version of Vogue Italia.  She was shot by the remarkable photographer,  Francesco Carrozzini, who captured the rapper’s effortless modeling abilities.   Take a look!
