Nicki Minaj made her return to the rap game last week after she re-released her 2009 mixtape “Beam Me Up Scott,” which featured three new songs, including “Seeing Green” featuring Drake and Lil Wayne.

Then, knowing exactly what she was doing, Nicki released a behind-the-scenes video for "Seeing Green" on Thursday. 

Most behind-the-scenes videos share footage of the artists working on a music video or working on the track together, but this one was more like a collage of memories.

The video starts with the Instagram video that Nicki posted stepping out of her Rolls Royce and driving around with husband Kenneth Petty in the passenger seat.

The video shares a lot of throwback pictures with Nicki, Wayne and Drake throughout their Young Money ventures. 

It also includes old Snapchats of the “Fractions” rapper and a look at the photoshoot for one of her most recent Instagram posts wearing a black swimsuit that has cutouts on both sides of the waist.

She wore silver hoop earrings and a necklace made of diamonds with her signature Barbie pendant, along with a diamond choker on her neck. Nicki knew the assignment with this one, adding in diamond bracelets, a diamond watch and diamond rings on both hands.

Queen Onika topped off the look with a pair of crocs.

Nicki lip-syncs her verse in a selfie video and adds a few twerking moments captured on camera.

She also included footage from her Instagram Live broadcast, where Drake joined her and the pair gushed over each other. 

“You know we’ve had some real hearts-to-hearts lately — it’s your world, and no one does this better than you. We really miss your presence and just the bars,” Drake told the “Super Bass” rapper. “We miss the excitement that you bring.”

We also get to see a clip of Nicki joining Drake on stage in Paris at one of his concerts and the pair share a big embrace at the end of the performance of her Remy Ma diss track, “No Frauds.” The 38-year-old rapper wore a latex bodysuit and an oversized clear coat to perform the song, along with “Truffle Butter,” “Only” and “Moment 4 Life.”

All in all, we’re not mad at getting more Nicki content. 

While we wait on more music, we’re kinda, sorta hoping for Nicki to unblock City Girls’ Yung Miami on Instagram because whatever they cook up in the studio would be the anthem of the summer.

On May 16, Yung Miami asked Nicki to unblock her on Instagram and she shed some light on why she was making the request. 

In another tweet, she wrote: “I’m not obsessed, desperate, none of that fr I just asked her to unblock me I ain’t do shit! Tf.”

Nicki still hasn’t responded to Yung Miami’s request, but fans speculate that she’s blocked because of an interview she did where she was asked if she is team Cardi or team Nicki. She revealed that she was team Cardi, but to be fair, City Girls do have a collab with Cardi.

While we wait for Nicki to break her silence on Yung Miami, stream "Seeing Green" for good skin!
