Nicki and Red have kept up both their friendship and their artistic collaborations.

Last year, Sexyy Red had a legendary breakout year. She became one of the biggest stars of rap music in the span of just a year. One of the first boosts she got came when she dropped her mixtape, Hood Hottest Princess. One of the singles from the project was a special remix of her song "Pound Town." "Pound Town 2" with Nicki Minaj became her breakthrough single and is still among her biggest songs to date. And as her profile has risen dramatically the two have continued to be friends.

Earlier this month, Nicki announced that the pair were working on another remix. This time, Red was hopping on one of Nicki's tracks. Last year Minaj dropped her first new album in 5 years and one of the breakout hits is the hard-hitting "FTCU." She's teased a remix with Red a few times now, though hasn't officially confirmed when it'll be arriving. Anytime the pair interact online, fans call for news on the pending single in bulk. That was also the case recently when Nicki wished Red a happy birthday on Twitter. Check out the message she shared for her collaborator below.
