"Nicki" is based on Nicki's life story when she was an aspiring rapper who moved from Trinidad to Queens in early 1990s. The scripted series also stars Selita Ebanks as Nicki's mom Grace, Wesley Jonathan as her father Vincent, and McCarrie McCausland as her older brother Jaylen. Whoopi Goldberg will make a guest appearance as Nicki's neighbor Miss Martha.

The new show is slated to premiere this year. Minaj is executive producing the series and will also make appearance in the half-hour comedy.
