The rapper's hit track "Super Freaky Girl" is the background music for Lawrence's upcoming comedy flick.

Nicki Minaj's hit "Super Freaky Girl" appeared in the trailer for Jennifer Lawrence's upcoming comedy, No Hard Feelings. Moreover, the film hits theaters this summer and stars Lawrence as a young woman on the verge of losing her childhood home. While working, she finds a job listing from parents looking to hook their 19-year-old son up with someone before college. From what the trailer shows, Lawrence takes the leap, and craziness, hilarity, and subtly deep coming-of-age themes follow. Even though it sounds hectic to begin with, it's well-suited by Minaj's colorful No. 1 hit.

In fact, that single is one of many that formed part of a prolific run for Nicki recently. Along with that track, there's "Do We Have A Problem?" with Lil Baby, which started off Nicki's eventful 2022. Also, she released various collaborations with Fivio Foreign and Coi Leray that boosted hype and settled her in with some newer faces in the game. Most recently, she dropped "Red Ruby Da Sleeze," which allegedly contains some subliminal disses at other female rappers. Still, the 40-year-old rapper clarified some aspects of the song in a recent interview.

“‘Red Ruby [Da Sleeze],’ I dropped it as a itty-bitty just something,” the Pinkprint star remarked. “’Cause I know it’s gon’ go off on tour, it’s gon’ go off on y’all. It’s just rapping. But the album, obviously, I have to drop my official single for the album. ‘Red Ruby’ is not the official single for the album.” Diss track or not, she continued to fan the flames of those rumors during her Rolling Loud L.A. set. However, beyond just rap beef, Nicki apparently held onto "Super Freaky Girl" for a while before releasing it.

“My label wanted me to go full out with a single and everything when I was pregnant, and I couldn’t bring myself to put out a song about p***y and d**ks and sucking and eating,” she elaborated. “I couldn’t bring myself to put a record out like that while my son was growing in my body! Nothing wrong with anybody who’s able to do it, but with me, I just felt in a very different, new space.” Check out the trailer for No Hard Feelings above and return to HNHH for more news and updates on Nicki Minaj.
