Say what you will about Nicki Minaj's choice to emphasize pop songs over rap in Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded but this new video for one such pop track, "Pound the Alarm," is super fun. In it we see the entertainer back in her native Trinidad (Minaj was born in the Caribbean nation and moved to Queens when she was a child) letting loose during Carnival. Joined by a passel of festive dancers in showgirl gear -- lots of feathered headdresses, bustiers and jewels -- the singer struts down the catwalk street, partakes in a dance train, and rouses the crowd atop some massive speakers. Basically, how much do plane tickets to Trinidad cost?
