Prior to the release of her debut studio album Pink Friday, MTV produced a documentary on the rapper outlining her life and achievements. In the documentary, My Time Now Minaj discussed how her incentive to succeed is bigger than herself. “I have nothing else to lean on. […] I have been told forever that you will not sell. Nobody will catch you. Don't sound too smart. You can only be part of one crew. And I just know that there are so many women who are told these things every day. I thought this was all about me. But I don't do it for me, I do it for them” (Minaj, My Time Now) By relating herself and her personal struggle to be accepted as her gender to other women who share similar struggles, she is positioning herself to have a model to follow. Her aspiration seems to be for women to look up to her as an example, showing them that she was told she couldn't succeed and doing it regardless. Her example transcends the world of hip-hop and is relatable to all women seeking success in dominated professional fields
