We hope you like feathers, because pop rapper Nicki Minaj keeps the party pumping in a peacock-y costume in her latest Roman Reloaded vid for "Pound the Alarm." Filmed in Port of Spain, Trinidad, the video follows the musician as she makes her way through the city's famed Carnival festival, and you can catch the results down below.

While at first she takes in a gorgeous aerial view of the Caribbean city, it's not long before Minaj dons the aforementioned feather-and-tassels-intensive outfit while walking the city streets with a number of similarly plumed beauties. As she takes the song to the stage, a series of Carnival participants, from mask-wearing stilt-walkers to costumed whip-crackers and fire-breathing blue angels, bust a move in the background. Kind of makes your work day feel especially beige, doesn't it?
