Future and Nicki Minaj Stunt on Everyone in a Video for "You Da Baddest"

It's the newest track to be added to Future's 'HNDRXX.'

Nicki Minaj by her very nature is a person who commands attention. She's a Sagittarius with a physics-defying butt, so it's kind of difficult not to look in her direction, and that is basically the premise of the music video for a new Future track she features on, "You Da Baddest."

The brand new HNDRXX cut (it's been added to the album's track listing since its release) is a bouncy earworm, and the video sees Nicki and Futch stunting on literally everyone, because, well, they're the Baddest. Nicki spending around two thirds of the video wearing strategically placed crystals, a fur, and long hair that looks like if you touched it, it'd feel like the softest cashmere, and I don't think I've ever seen anything more aspirational.

She's pictured alternately dipping in and out of a convertible (obviously), catching the eyes of men who are later slapped by their wives in elevators (obviously), and flipping the bird at the camera, alongside Future, who seems kind of not really present for the whole thing, but who can wear the shit out of some camo. Watch above and allow yourself to be transfixed by the enormous magnetism of Onika Maraj.
