Nicki Minaj Readies ‘Roman Reloaded’ Re- Release?

Published: Tuesday 4th Sep 2012 by David

Her team may be horrible at handling her singles, but there’s no doubt Nicki Minaj is one of Pop’s strongest competitors when it comes to pushing albums.

For, after watching it surpass sales of 1 million copies worldwide in the space of five months, the Rapper is reportedly reading the reworked version of her record breaking LP ‘Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded‘.

Details below…

In a report by Hits Daily Double, the following was revealed:

Pink Friday Roman Reloaded is skedded for re-release 11/21.

Clearly hoping to push US sales of the project by way of the annual ‘Black Friday‘ sales, the Pepsi front woman is also reported to have teamed up with touring buddy Misha B on a revamped version of her dance anthem ‘Automatic’, named ‘Automatic (Reloaded)’. This however, is yet to be confirmed.

With a number of smash hit singles just waiting to be pulled from the existing album, let’s hope Team Minaj focus their efforts on pushing one cut at a time- and do away with their strategy of releasing as many videos as possible.

For, though it isn’t always obvious, ‘Reloaded’ has spawned five videos since April and none of them have taken their respective numbers to the top of any charts.

Like, it’s not as though Minaj is short on the talent, creativity or finances to deliver videos just as fantastical as her set at the 2012 Grammy Awards ceremony.

A ceremony, which served theatrics we hope this re-release delivers in abundance on all tips, and put her on track to snatch Rihanna‘s title as this generation’s singles Queen.

    it seems to me that kinda of dance music of Taio cruz…

  4. Roman September 4, 2012

    Nicki has always been a smart business woman. I’ll admit she’s made a few mistakes in crafting her brand but when she’s cooking something up u know she’s doing it for longevity.

    Although I am in 2 minds about a re-release becos I truly am in favor of a mixtape. After the way she ruined that Mercy beat.
    NICKI LEWINSKY IS STILL ALIVE…

    • Truth(theREALISTubitch) September 4, 2012

      b****, hav u NOTICED how this copyn s*** gettin her p**** stomped on this post? U r a dying breed u s**** c***…u betta recognize chile

  5. Alex September 4, 2012

    A re-release for a flop album. What…a shocker.

  6. TAYLOR SWIFTS NUMBER 1 FAN!!! September 4, 2012

    I million in 5 months? I’m sorry but Queen Taylor sells a million in a week….

    • Benron (King Of The Navy) September 4, 2012

      1 MILLION WORLDWIDE TWO!

    • RDK September 4, 2012

      What TAYLOR SWIFTS have to do with this article,we all know country and straight pop like Taylor always put up numbers.

    • Peter Griffin September 4, 2012

      Only the US care about Taylor Swift. I wouldn’t even know about her if it wasn’t for people like you bringing her up on unrelated blog posts! You and MTV need to realise this!

      • TAYLOR SWIFTS NUMBER 1 FAN!!! September 5, 2012

        Taylor swift was top 5 with her lastest single in the Uk, so if you’re fom the uk, you best check the singles chart to see, she’s at number 9. She was nunber 1 on the itunes chart across the world also.

  8. That B*tch (would you like a rihfund with that)? September 4, 2012

    Nicki, gurl stop.

  9. Benron (King Of The Navy) September 4, 2012

    Mariah is the singles Queen, she has the most #1’s.

    Nicki is nowwhere near dethroning Rihanna atanything. Rih can outsing/dance/act/model/read/write/speak/perform better than Nicki.

    Number Ones:
    Rihanna: 11
    Nicki: 0

    How long it took their albums to crack 1 million.
    Rihanna: 3 weeks
    Nicki: 15 weeks

    • Rihanna Navy September 4, 2012

      can you stop comparing nicki to rihanna.it’s like comparing grapes to oranges.

    • That B*tch (would you like a rihfund with that)? September 4, 2012

      Benron boo, Rihanna and Nicki sing around the same range and cant live without autotune. Ive never seen Nicki trying to dance but at least she has stage presence unlike Rih. Nicki hasnt dropped a good rap song in a while but there is no competition in the writing department seeing as how Rihject doesnt even write her own songs. Nicki’s movie wasn’t a box office flop like Battleshit.
      I dont stan for Nicki and tbh I dont even listen to her like that but while it took Rihanna 3 LP’S to become an A list star it only took Nicki a few music features and a mixtape to reach that status.

      • Benron (King Of The Navy) September 4, 2012

        Rihanan can sing in falsetto, growl, and has a two octave range, Nicki cant! Rihanna has stage presence, Nicki always looks confused. Rihanna is a known co-writing just like your fave Beyawnce, except Rihanna doesen’t have people outsing her for being a liar.

        Nicki just reached Rihanna’s level from 2007 and it took her almost 30 singles. GOODFUCKINGBYE @ Your delusion

    • Incorrect September 4, 2012

      Rih #1 Albums – 0 (out of six tries)
      Nicki #1 Albums – 2 (out of 2 tries)
      Since you wanna go on BB chartings. Plus nobody was checking for Rih until her 3rd album. While Nicki was being checked since her features and last mixtape.

      • Benron (King Of The Navy) September 4, 2012

        WOW A NUMBER ONE ALBUM! NICKI MUST BE SO SUCSESSFUL

        No one was cheking for her, there were no other female rappers and she took her plastic behind (50 % of why shes famous) and dropped her asss on EVERYONES SONG. No one is checking for her popsinging asss.

    • MC September 4, 2012

      Sam is too busy thinking about what the next stan war that he wants to make happen

    • Peter Griffin September 4, 2012

      Rihanna will be performing the new version of ‘Cockiness’ too. H** tryna sell album only tracks!

  10. KingBey September 4, 2012

    Nicki, Like You Said , Hang It Up Flat-Screen.
    I Guess You See That No one Wanted to listen to lyrics like
    “Take Your Medication Roman-
    Or
    “Twinkle Twinkle Little Star-
    Her Album Was Terrible And Generic.
    She Needs To Wrap It Up , And Give Us More Pink Friday, Or Beam Me Up Scotty Music.
    She Won’t Be Remember In 10 Years Like Queen Latifah,Larynn Hill,Or Eve, Or Kim.
    If She Keeps Up Music Like This. I Mean I Get She’s Having Fun But She’s 29 She Needs To Be More Mature, Yet Relateable.

  11. dstrock September 4, 2012

    In general, re-releases seem desperate to me. I’d just rather see her make a mixtape and work on building that core fanbase, all while pushing Pop singles like Va Va Voom from the album for the general public.

    • happy bear September 4, 2012

      That one doesn’t sound as techno. I just don’t want her to keep releasing techno stuff. Her album had rap on it but she needs more traditional rap on an album like she had on pink friday and like drake has and she could really give her competition a run for the money. She chose to over expose one side of her talent.

  12. facekick September 4, 2012

    She can do whatever she wants but i’m sure i’m not the only one who completely lost respect and appeal for her.

  13. Mark September 4, 2012

    Wait, PFRL wasn’t already a re-release? WOW.

  14. the real xoxo September 4, 2012

    …and the downward spiral continues.

  15. happy bear September 4, 2012

    I don’t see why Nicki feels she has to compete with rihanna. In the end if she sticks with her own formula she had going before she just became this techno artist she can do better than Rihanna overall because she owns the majority of her publishing rights and she writes all of her music.

    • Benron (King Of The Navy) September 4, 2012

      They’re not even in the same genre but her fans be trying to compare with Rih.

      Bey stans are checking for Rih, Nicki stans are checking for Rih, Gaga stans are checking for Rih, Taylor swift stans sometimes check for Rih and Britney spears stans check for Rih.

      That 5 different genres. When you’re on top people wanna be you!

      • Incorrect September 4, 2012

        actually it’s this site thats making people do this. Last time I checked no one was checking for Rih (stans wise)

      • prettigurlrockD September 4, 2012

        My faves have more power and talent in the industry than Rihanna ever could so I’m sure they are secure enough in their own skin. @benron invalid. #BYE

  17. PLayTime Is Over – YOUTUBE IT September 4, 2012

    What I wanna know is, once everyone is bored of the Barbie/Pink Friday or when she’s completely rinsed the image/marketability, wtf is this tired heffa going to do then?! We all know she isn’t original since she didnt create this Barbie image (Kim did) what is she going to do?! She knows this, hence 2 years later, same image, poor sales, and now she’s re-releasing the same piece of crap album which btw has failed to go platinum in the USA. Nicki you’ll be 30 years old in a matter of months & your lyrics are WACK. For the sake of our own relevance, please grow up, get creative and PRAY you can think of another gimmick your army of braindead fat whales will follow. If not, bye bye Nicki! (fingers crossed).

  20. JER September 4, 2012

    I say get your life Nicki because lord knows you need all the sales you can get. So the album will be called Pink Friday: Roman Re-Reloaded (Ultra Deluxe Re-Released Over-Certified Edition)?

  21. MC September 4, 2012

    Good luck Nicki, I hope it does better that PF:RR oh wait……..

  22. Beyonce’s Bush September 4, 2012

    I’m sorry, if nobody bought it in the first place, why would they consider buying it again? Minaj really tried to model herself after the success of Lady Gaga. She thought she could be the ”special/eccentric” urban version. Problem is that untalented fads never last.

    • truth(THEREALISTUBITCH) September 5, 2012

      CHIIIIIILE i’m COMPLETELY DEAD at your name! lol

  23. James227 September 4, 2012

    Since this b**** bragging that she’s a Republican, she should let Matt Rommy buy her re-release flop CD. After that comment she made I’m so done with YMCM crew. What happened did YMCM make Sam remove Nicki’s last post being that she made that comment?

  24. Honey CHILD please September 4, 2012

    Shut this one republic b**** up!

  25. Beyonce’s Weave (& Her “HIVE” of Head-Lice) September 4, 2012

    This statement, “A ceremony, which served theatrics we hope this re-release delivers in abundance on all tips, and put her on track to snatch Rihanna‘s title as this generation’s singles Queen.” end quote. Please don’t get me started because I like Nicki Minaj but until she gets a single that last 10 weeks on the charts, she is not snatching anything.

    Rihanna is a hit maker, this is why all the big artists want to work with her. Love the way you lie is 17x platinum, 17 phucking times platinum, Beyonce wishes she could feature on a track that is 17 phucking times platinum. So no, nice try Samantha but I am not going to shade Nicki Minaj because I actually like her. I’ll shade Beyonce instead.

    Beyonce is some desperate cow, she practically released every song from 4closure as a single and that still wasn’t helping that project. It FLOPPED and Beyonce’s next project will go the way of Basic Extinct. I hope they have saved up enough money for Taco Bell’s college fund and enough to pay off Rosa when she comes back for her baby. Just saying.

  30. RG2 September 4, 2012

    HONESTLY HER FIRST ALBUM WAS BETTER & MORE REAL AND SHE ACTUALLY EXPRESSED HERSELF IN A WAY MANY PEOPLE COULD RELATE TO.

    EXAMPLES: “SAVE ME” “RIGHT THROUGH ME” “MOMENT 4 LIFE” “DEAR OLD NICKI” “HERE I AM” “CATCH ME” “FLY”

    THESE SONGS SHOWCASE HER TALKIN BOUT REAL S*** NOT HOW CRAZY HER ALTER EGOS ARE. NICKI PLEASE START OVER WITH THE NEXT ALBUM. NO MORE CRAZY ANTICS FROM ROMAN.

  31. Gilberto September 4, 2012

    It’s going to be called Pink Friday Roman Reloaded Flop Re-Reloaded.

  32. Jay Jay September 4, 2012

    Her first album was so much better than her second. I’m not going to rule her out just yet but I need her to focus more on her craft than making fast food tracks for her next album

  33. bibi93 September 4, 2012

    She must work hard again to arrive at the high level

  34. Remey September 4, 2012

    Nicki’s team realizes this is too important of an era to let go to waste. Therefore, this Re-Release is to right the wrongs that have already been made.

    Re-Releases are always pursued for ulterior motives that may not be obvious to the public eye. However, their speedy releases always suggest something didn’t go correctly with the parent album.

    Look at Katy Perry’s Complete Confection: She released Teenage Dream in August 24, 2010. “Dream” went on to spawn hit after hit! They thought they could beat MJ’s record, but they couldn’t. Her team tried to be slick and re-release the album to trump more #1s, but Billboard shut that down quickly. Nonetheless, it became too foolish to let the success of “Dream” to die out without milking out more money…..hence a push for the re-release.

    Same with Nicki. They can’t let this album go to waste, so they are restarting over with a re-release. This allows for rebranding and publicizing without flat out saying “FLOP!”

  35. The Zolonski Trap September 4, 2012

    Dummies. Nicki Minaj knows her strengths and weaknesses…if she does do a rerelease, don’t you think that she’s gonna go full out!! About 5 months ago, she went to the studio in Miami or something and recorded a song that NOBODY knows the name of, not even the people in the studio. All they know is that it’s a secret, she was sending people to do everything for her and all the say was the song will literally CHANGE the way EVERYBODY thinks of her. She knows what she can do, she just wants to venture off and experiment. And it’s crazy, she’s so irrelevant, she’s so washed up but she’s always on the radio, always blowin up y’all cable bills, always in ya computer screens and always in ya mouths. But SHE’S irrelevant? Lol! Just show me when/where Kim or Azealia broke records, performed at shows, toured the world or did ANYTHING she’s doing. Oh ohkay, exactly. And don’t bring up the wig thing because ya nicki was inspired (commonly mistaken for copying) but she looks 1000x better than her in em. Kim is too black for those bright ass wigs anyways. But anyways, yeah nicki. Can’t wait. I know it’ll smash.

    • msteefromdc September 5, 2012

      oh u r so delusional…kim been touring the world wayyyy before nicki. in fact kim just came back from touring over in Africa and Europe in 2010. so stfu, u sound stupid..do your damn homework. and fyi, nicki straight jacked kim’s whole everything..so don’t say she was inspired, that’s b.s. nicki stole that shyt! it’s one thing to be inspired by someone in the game that came before you but it’s another thing to straight take everything you did and try to act like you came up with it, and busting shots at that person at the same damn time…where they do that at??? if kim didnt do what she did all these female rappers would still be wearing baggy ass jeans lookin like dudes…kim made female rap s***…and that’s something you, nicki or no one can take from her. you really need to do your homework, check out kim’s accomplishments, awards, her whole resume and you will see why she is the best female rapper/icon/legend to ever do this shyt! Once you do your homework let me know your findings, i wanna check your homework lil man!

    • What u gon do when I appear??!! September 6, 2012

      Girl have 37 seats. Ain’t nobody got time for that dissertation.

  36. Ed September 4, 2012

    She really needs new management, or if it’s her decision, she needs to be told NO occasionally.

    Automatic is an obvious single choice, but Young Forever is the best track on the album – that and Marilyn Monroe need to be released immediately.

    She may want her cred, but she should NEVER release stuff like Stupid H**, Roman’s Holiday etc ever again. They don’t sell. I loved Beez in the Trap but it wasn’t going to be a number one hit.

    Release this, the two ballads and and don’t make the mistake again!

  37. RG2 September 4, 2012

    I want to see more of the old Nicki from “Beam Me Up Scotty” & “Pink Friday”, Roman may be fun to hear when she is being featured i.e “Bottums Up”, and “Monster”, but I can’t deal with Roman being over the top on every single song. Roman Reloaded was just OKAY, it didn’t leave me feeling completely fulfilled like Pink Friday.
    DEAR NICKI, COULD YOU GET A NEW WIG COLOR (PREFERBLY BLACK) INSTEAD OF THAT BLEACH BLONDE. IM NOT OVER YOU (NICKI MINAJ) IM JUST OVER THOSE BLONDE WIGS.

  38. prettigurlrockD September 4, 2012

    Whether it’s good or bad talk, I’m sure when the album drops most of you will be checking for nicki, as talentless as she is, I’m sure she has enough gimmicks that will last a few more years. Hell, it worked for Madonna….

  39. wang_yoa** September 5, 2012

    Its funny how the ones thats coming for THE QUEEN, be coming bold as hell. Tryna go back forth on album sales nd shxt. BXTCHES STAY PRESSED ON MOTHA NIC FORREAL, LOL. But at the end of the day my HB is getting her coins regardless of what any stupid h*o gotta say!! #IRIDEFOTHEKID #DMV

  40. truth tea September 5, 2012

    nicki minaj is the first female rapper to take a s***.
    its hilarious how her fans keeps saying “shes the first female rapper to do this and that”, when she has barely broke any REAL records like being the highest selling, most influential, most lyrical etc.
    im done with nicki. she is so 2010! ive moved on to Azealia Banks 🙂 now there is a b**** who can rap.

  41. Meisha September 7, 2012

    Lmao this b**** will do anything for a plat album struggling to break Missy and LilKim stats! Please Rihanna and Taylor have dream careers they on top and under 25 so dont compare Nicki wit dem! She cant even do Beyonce who sold over 11million ww with her first solo album! Acutually Kelly Rowland has more networth than Nicki! She call her fans lazy b****** that mess up the economy but yet they will run out n buy the same album tryna save her long nose face lmao! ALL THE OTHER RAPERS SUCCESSED IN THE MIDST OF COMPETITION SHE IS DOING POORLY AND THERE IS NO OTHER OFFICIAL MUSIC BY FEMALES MCs! Fraud gimmick a shame!
