Nicki Minaj has revealed the meaning of her violent death at the end of her “Your Love” video. The clip features the rapper as a martial arts student who fights for the love of her sensei — and ends up with a sharp blade to the gut.

The raptress told MTV News:

“I just felt like that was the most emotional and truthful storyline. I felt like mostly everyone would normally make themselves win in the end. I wanted to show that the only way I could be beat is if you cheat. If you play fair and square, I’m gonna win. It’s my little way of looking at it.”
