Young Money’s Nicki Minaj flew out to her native land of Trinidad to film her carnival inspired music video for her house-pop track, “Pound the Alarm.” Filmed at the Queen’s Park Savannah, Port-of-Spain, the Pink Friday recording artist rocked a red, exotic masquerade costume and hit the stage with Soca artists like Fay-Ann Lyons, Bunji Garlin and Machel Montano.
“I think Trinidad is challenge sometimes, tourism wise, because in the (United) States at least people don’t know it as a location for beaches and that sort of thing, so I think that in that regard, you gotta get people to look at the island for what it offers.” Says Nicki.
