Nicki Minaj has returned with a raunchy new single called “Super Freaky Girl.” It appears to sample Rick James’ 1981 hit song “Super Freak.” She recently teased the track with a video on social media, to which the official account for the late Rick James responded: “Banger.” Check out the new song below.

“Super Freaky Girl” is co-produced by Aaron Joseph, Dr. Luke, Malibu Babie, and Vaughn Oliver. Luke, who remains in a legal battle with Kesha, has worked with Minaj on several songs, including “Pills N Potions,” “The Night Is Still Young,” and “Blick Blick.”

Minaj’s last album was 2018’s Queen, and, recently, she’s put out a number of singles: “We Go Up,” “Do We Have a Problem?,” and “Bussin.” Her most recent solo single was 2019’s “Megatron.”
