But this might not be the recognition she was hoping for.
The singer, 28, showed a little too much skin while performing on ABC's Good Morning America on Friday.
When Minaj rocked the stage at Central Park's Rumsey Playfield, her crop top began to slip, leaving her more than a little exposed.
But the show must go on! Although Minaj whose colorful stage gear was accented by graphic-print pants and an umbrella-like skirt seemed stunned when she caught the wardrobe malfunction, she pulled her top back up and continued her set, which included hits like "Moment 4 Life" and "Super Bass."
Viewers tuning in on the East Coast may have seen a snippet of the slip, and ABC issued an apology Friday afternoon.
"Although we had a five-second delay in place for the Nicki Minaj concert on GMA, the live East Coast feed of the concert regrettably included certain fleeting images of the performer that were taken out of later feeds of the broadcast in other times zones," a rep for ABC said. "We are sorry that this occurred."
And the fashion faux pas didn't put a damper on Minaj's mood. "U guys just gave me LIFE. I love u Team Minaj!" she Tweeted after the show. "Words could never do this love justice! Thank you @Gma!!!!"
