While the rest of us barbecued and watched fireworks, Nicki Minaj went home to Trinidad to celebrate the 4th of July. Shooting the video for “Pound The Alarm” was her motive; the song is from her sophomore release, Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded. Dressed in Carnival attire, Nicki received quite a welcome home as the paraded through the streets on a float. Nicki tweeted the following to her fans, “Just wrapped an amazing video on an amazing island. #Trinidad #poundthealarm. The heat in Trinidad is on another level. O-o The girls in the vid are drop dead gorgeous & I’m not just saying it cuz I’m from here!”
