Nicki Minaj's "Chun-Li" video is about to be crazy.

Nicki Minaj is back and active as ever. After taking a hiatus from social media and the limelight for several months, she made her triumphant return two weeks a go and released two stellar singles with "Chun-Li" and "Barbie Tingz." To top it off, she was also featured on Young Thug's monstrous single, "Anybody" from his three song project, Hear No Evil. Many fans have been eagerly awaiting the visuals for her singles, although she has released a vertical video for "Chun-Li." Today, she comes through with an snippet for the visuals for "Chun-Li."

Nicki Minaj has shared a snippet of her upcoming video for "Chun-Li." The visuals hone into similar aesthetics shared in the album art. In the video, she's seen alongside another woman who's dressed similar to her. The two of them go in on some choreography before competing with each other for the higher kick. It's definitely looking like it's going to be a fire video from Nicki. 

The release of her new video is an indication that her album is coming incredibly soon. Unfortunately, it comes with some bad news. The rapper previously stated that she'll be premiering new music during her performance at Saturday Night Live in May but she's since backtracked on that. She took to Twitter to reveal that she changed her mind and won't be premiering new music after all.
