NICKI MINAJ: QUEEN ALBUM COVER
PH0017
Jenna Marsh co-creative directed Nicki Minaj’s Queen album cover. The image depicts Nicki Minaj against a setting sun adorned in gold jewelry that conjures images of an ancient past. The Queen typography is formed with feminine curves, initially brought to life by Katie McIntyre. The shape is based on research of archaic Indian jewelry and weaponry —a nod to Nicki’s lesser known heritage that she wished to capitalize on during this album cycle. The Queen symbol was adapted for the Nicki Minaj Radio show and printed in gold as a physical jewelry piece worn by Nicki.
