Nicki Minaj has revealed that she enjoys listening to an eclectic range of music while on tour.

The rapper, who released her debut album 'Pink Friday' last year, is currently on the I Am Music II tour with Lil' Wayne and Travis Barker.

In an interview with Elle magazine, Minaj said she was continuing to buy music on the road.

"I listen to Beyoncé, I listen to Rihanna, I listen to Kanye, and of course Lil Wayne," she said.

"Of course Drake. I listen to a lot of gospel music. I listen to Cyndi Lauper, Avril Lavigne... I just bought a whole bunch of reggae like Mavado and Lady Saw and Beenie Man."

Minaj's 'Pink Friday' was one of the biggest-selling debuts in the US last year, and was only denied the number one spot by West's 'My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy'.
