Hip-Hop’s current queen Nicki Minaj originally intended for the Rihanna featured “Fly,” off her platinum selling  Pink Friday debut, to be her next single, but has now decided to change course. And since her and the Loud singer’s albums were released within a week of each other, she wanted to let her collaborator’s tracks breathe.

So the “Fly” clip won’t be released until around Memorial Day, according to the Young Money femcee.

“I’m gonna hold off on the Rihanna video and the Rihanna single for a little bit longer,” she told MTV News. ” ‘Cause we both kind of dropped at the same time. So she has a lot of [songs] in rotation and I want to let her stuff have a moment and do its thing, dominate radio. [Instead], I wanted to come out with something more fun.”

Now that was nice of her!
