Watch Adele Rap Nicki Minaj’s “Monster” Verse With James Corden
There are many reasons why Adele is selling more records than everyone else in the universe combined, but one of those reasons is that she’s a perfectly delightful human being. You can see that in the latest installment of James Corden’s Carpool Karaoke series, in which Corden drives around with celebrities and sings songs. The segment has Adele and Corden singing along with Adele’s songs, which is fun; we get to hear her hit titanic notes while she’s weaving through London traffic rather than standing center stage. But there are other great moments, too, like when Adele tells a story about getting drunk by herself in a restaurant over Christmas, or when she raps Nicki Minaj’s great verse from Kanye West’s “Monster” word-for-word. They also sing the Spice Girls’ “Wannabe.” It’s nice. Watch the video below.
Adele’s 25 is out now on XL/Columbia, but you knew that. “I feel like it’s gone well.”
UPDATE: Minaj approves.
Adele is mad ratchet. I can't take her😂 #UK #WutsGood
