    I must say I agree with Nicholas about working hard and shoving through to make yourself happen. That’s all.

    I wonder what albums iggy, azeaila banks, lil Kim, eve, missy Elliot, Trina, kreayshawn, on Monday Rihanna or nicki Minaj??? You already know Rihanna cause all of them are jealous of nicki Minaj radio success, billboard success, tv success, so Rihanna album will probably be number one

    What, Janurary 16, 2013? Wait a minute, they have been through all of this drama and the season has yet to start 0_o?

    • MC November 17, 2012

      This is why I say this s*** is not staged. The show has always been scheduled for 2013 so it made NO sense whatsoever to have that “feud” MONTHS before the show began. That’s what the producer Nigel said too, he said that he wished the feud happened weeks before the show began so it would gain viewership and this “disagreement” happened at the wrong time. I don’t know why people think its staged, I cannot see Mariah agreeing to be called names like that for the sake of a show (she is a diva, it won’t flow with her) and I cannot see Roman agreeing to do the same risking public backlash like that. No one wins expect the show….at what expense though.

      • FAF November 17, 2012

        No, it’s recorded, the live shows begin in late jan, early feb ., 🙂

      • MC November 17, 2012

        I know this but what is the point of hyping a show that will air MONTHS later? Everybody will forget about this feud during Jan.-Feb……

    “Rap Queen Nicki Minaj”– There’s no need to spread lies like that -__-

    • ,. November 17, 2012

      Then wo is the queen…Like it are not Nicki is the queen on the female mainstream rap tip,you might not like her methods of doing things are recognize her as the queen,but the facts is she is the one carrying female rap right now,if someone wants to rise up and help her with the weight help her run the kingdom then they are free to try.

  5. PrettigurlrockD Bitchess November 17, 2012

    The beef is dead. I hope nicki and MC can grow up now and concentrate on the show. The promo looks good.

    No regrets ! No time for complacency ! No excuses Perseverance is key ! 🙂

    #RE-UP November 19th !

  10. Viciousss November 17, 2012

    The more I hear from her the more I like her.

    Its

  11. Viciousss November 17, 2012

    The more I hear from her the more I like her.

    Its easy to get turned off when all you do is look at someone or listen to what other people say they are.

    But when I hear Nicki speak I’m incredibly happy for her. I’m having she got this opportunity, I’m happy she’s fighting for her dream, I’m happy she’s such a smart well spoken black woman.

    I wish her well, she’s reaching heights few could have imagined were possible this early in her career.

    • prettigurlrockD Bitchess November 17, 2012

      Nice comment. I know on necole bitchie they cannot stand her and be goinn in all the time. At least I respect TGJ for showing her more love even tho they are mean to rihanna time to time. LOL.

  12. Realest November 17, 2012

    Over saturated and overrated.. Neauxone curr Nicki, neauxone curr!

  13. RoyalKev November 17, 2012

    I guess I’m one of the few that sometimes feel a little sorry for Nicki. No matter how you feel about her position in the music industry or her image, she’s still a person. I see that people tear her down everyday, day after day! There’s a lot people I don’t care for, but I can’t find a reason to attack anyone everyday. I’m not claiming that she’s some kind of an angel. I’m just pointing out that we did not witness everything to have so much judgement going on. I just hate when people drag someone to death like it’s so personal. People might want to consider how easy it is for each of us to react to things in our everyday lives. Just imagine if that was caught on camera for people to base their opinions of you on.

      I FEEL MORE SORRY FOR MARIAH AND LIL KIM THEN THIS RATCHET SLAG B**** H** I CANT WITH THIS FAKE ASS B**** WITH MULTIPLE PERSONALITY DISORDER

    • prettigurlrockD Bitchess November 17, 2012

      If I were her I wouldn’t even use the internet or blogs. Ppl are really harsh out there and she knows this. It’s expected when you’re in the business.

  14. thefollowerofthesun November 17, 2012

    This chick! She seriously thinks she is a legend in the making, which is comical considering that there is an entire lineage of CLASSIC, WORTHY, FEMALE HIP HOP legends who did this waay better than she does, who opened the doors she sincerely believes she opened.

    Its sad how she has insanely over-estimated the worth of her efforts.

    • prettigurlrockD Bitchess November 17, 2012

      I don’t nicki will be “legendary” but in a few years her name will be remembered and she’ll be a vet like the rest of the female rappers in oblivion.

  15. ILL NANA November 18, 2012

    WHERE IS LIL KIM’S NEW ALBUM??

    • ImMadAsHell November 18, 2012

      Lil Kim is 4th album deep before she turned 30. Nicki only on her and slbum & she turning 30 this year.

      Why are you worrying about when Kim 5th album coming out.

      You should be worrying about Nicki staying power instead.

      • MadameXtinaWouldntWannaBeYa November 18, 2012

        Thats because Nicki finished school and worked for years before getting signed. Kim got signed because of her sexual relationship of Biggie.
