Adele Raps Nicki Minaj’s “Monster” Verse, Gets Rapper’s Blessing

Adele rapped the entirety of Nicki Manaj’s “Monster” verse on the latest episode of “Carpool Karaoke” and she crushed it like Godzilla on a city-wide rampage.

In a series of tweets Minaj enthusiastically praised Adele’s performance:

The rap was prompted by The Late Late Show host James Corden, who said he heard that Adele could rap before turning the Kanye West track on the car’s radio. It appears at the video’s 10 minute mark.
