Drake - Being on the same record label, Drake and Nicki have appeared in several music videos together. But nothing like the images Nicki teased via her social media accounts for her "Anaconda."

Game - Another single off her fourth coming Pink Print album, Nicki recruited honorary YMCMB member Game to star alongside her in her "Pills N Potions." The video, directed by Diane Martel the woman behind the lens of the "Right Thru Me" featured a minimal and almost make-up free Nicki and a shirtless Game, who serves as a silent symbol of heartbreak, while Nicki’s verses do all the talking.(Photo: Cash Money Records)

Nas - In her signature blonde locks and pink lipstick, Nicki poured out her heart to Nas in the video for her hit single “By My Side.” Nas spoiled The Head-Barbz-In-Charge who played his main squeeze in the visuals. He even put a ring on it. But the highlight came when Nas and Nicki shared an intimate tongue–down towards the end of their love story.(Photo: Cash Money Records, Universal Republic)
