Nicki Minaj has unveiled the cover of her forthcoming album,Watch Genie in a String Bikini (2006) Queen, and she looks every inch the Queen of the Nile.

Minaj appears bedecked with sequins and beads sitting atop a wooden log. With nothing but sequin pasties covering her nipples, Minaj wears a distinctly Cleopatra-esque headdress and a beaded panty.

Yas, Queen.
