Nicki Minaj announces release date for new single “Super Freaky Girl”

Get ready Barbs, new music from Nicki Minaj is on the way.

On Thursday, the 39-year-old rapper shared that her new single “Super Freaky Girl” will be released next Friday, August 12.

“8/12 PreSave #SuperFreakyGirl now. Link in BIO,” she wrote alongside the cover art for the track.

The announcement comes after Nicki teased a snippet of the track and it went viral. The song, which samples Rick James‘ 1981 hit “Super Freak,” was originally dubbed “Freaky Girl,” but ultimately Nicki left the name up to fans to decide.

“Thank you for your over 200K votes but we could not legally use the name freak or freaky girl. You’re stuck with this. Love you,” she continued in the caption. “Don’t forget #QueenRadio will be the night b4- on 8/11. So follow me on live.onamp.com/nickiminaj.”
