The rapper is coming off of a Grammy nomination for her "Barbie" soundtrack contribution with Ice Spice, and a Vogue cover, where she discussed marriage, plastic surgery and motherhood. She shared how her son influenced "Pink Friday 2" during an episode of Vogue's "73 Questions" series.

"Some of the songs started off being written about four years ago, there were songs … I couldn't record sexually explicit songs while I was pregnant so I ended up just getting turned off for a very long time and I had writer's block for a while, even after I had the baby," she recalled.
