In a recent interview with Rolling Stone, the decorated rapper opened up about her abortion , saying she thought she “was going to die.” “I was a teenager. It was the hardest thing I’d ever gone through,” she continued.
Nicki Minaj became pregnant when dating her first love, an older guy from Queens, N.Y., while attending Manhattan’s LaGuardia High School. The decision to abort has “haunted me all my life,” but she stands behind her decision: “It’d be contradictory if I said I wasn’t pro-choice. I wasn’t ready. I didn’t have anything to offer a child.”
Minaj can also be heard touching on the issue in her new song, All Things Go
