Did It On'em
"Did It On'em" is a song by Trinidadian-American rapper and singer Nicki Minaj. It was written by Minaj with J. Ellington, Safaree Samuels, and Shondrae "Bangladesh" Crawford, who produced the track. The song served as the sixth single from her debut album, ''Pink Friday'', in the United States.
