Bubble Gum Pop Media:
Nicki Minaj's "Your Love" touches upon both race and gender stereotypes. The 18th century Japanese themed backdrop emphasizes the gender differences: Nicki is a beautiful, docile geisha and her lover is a strong, confident samurai. However, her depiction of Japanese culture is slightly inaccurate as geisha and samurai were rarely seen as lovers. Also, in a surprising turn of events, Nicki sheds her timid appearance and takes on the persona of an aggressive warrior.
