With new music out, Nicki Minaj made an appearance on James Corden’s “Carpool Karaoke.” In addition to rapping to her own songs, she also did various impressions of singer Adele, who went viral after her episode in 2016 for rapping along to Minaj’s iconic verse on Kanye “Ye” West’s song “Monster.”

As seen in the video above, when Minaj put on her British accent, Corden insisted she sounded like Adele, asking her to continue as if she was the Grammy Award winner. The “Superbass” hitmaker hilariously came up with a speech about going “viral” at a basketball game, while coming up with phrases Adele is known to use. She stated she had seen Adele’s rendition of “Monster” and told Corden it made her “so happy” and that she “embodied Nicki Minaj,” resulting in the duo acting out their own version of the rap, while a clip from Adele’s episode appeared next to them. Minaj remained in her British accent and said she would never expect to see Adele rapping to one of her verses because she’s known for singing “sad songs.” In return, Corden and Minaj sang their own version of Adele’s smash “Someone Like You.”

Given that Adele and Minaj are two megastars with huge fanbases, it comes as no surprise that social media can’t get enough. “The editor who decided to split video of Nicki and Adele for Monster Verse deserves a raise,” one user wrote. “Jesus I’m dead,” another person shared. A third user remarked, “It’s the fact that it’s spot on.”
