With Nicki Minaj‘s debut album standing as one the year’s most anticipated, it was not surprising to see the fanfare surrounding her grand announcement of the LP’s title a few moments ago on Ustream. Check out what the Young Money star named the record after the jump…
Speaking in her now-trademark British accent, Minaj said:
“To carry on a great tradition of Black Friday, we are going to switch it up this year in honor of the Nicki Minaj album and call that day Pink Friday, and call my album ‘Pink Friday’.
The 27 year old then signed off with:
“It’s Barbie, Bitch!”
Hmm. It’s clear to see where Minaj was trying to go with the concept (the album drops on the Tuesday before Black Friday – the biggest shopping day of the year in the US). But no…just no.
Surely, with her dizzy levels of creativity, she could have mustered up something with a more ‘umph’ or at the very least something which wouldn’t alienate a large portion of her Hip-Hop following?
In any case, with the buzz Ms.Minaj has drummed up thus far, she looks set to steam-roll over the competition come the album’s release date (November 23rd). With that said…

LOL UMMMM. I SEE WHERE SHE WAS GOING WITH IT. I GUESS IT’S NOT ALL BAD.
BUT IT JUST DOESNT GIVE ME “GRAND” OR SOMETHING TO LOOK FORWARD TOO. LOL
SHE SHOULD HAVE WENT WITH THE TITLE ONE OF HER FANS GAVE HER ON-STREAM WHICH WAS “IN THE NICK OF TIME” SOMETHING THAT HAS SOME WEIGHT TO IT, AND ACTUALLY MEAN SOMETHING.
BUT IN TRUE NICKI MINAJ FASHION SHE CHOOSES SOMETHING THAT IT RETARDED AD MAKES NO SENSE MUCH LIKE HER RHYMES THROUGHOUT 16 BARS BUT W.E
BARBIES, AND THE B****** WITH THE BRAIN MATTER OF HELIUM WILL THINK IT’S THE MOST GENIUS THING SINCE MISES PARTED THE SEA, AND THE IDEALIZATION OF SLICED BREAD.
MISS ME WITH THE B*******.
I THINK ITS SMART ON HER PART A LOT OF PPL WILL BE SHOPPING THAT WEKEND…PLUS TO FLIP BLACK FRIDAY INTO PINK FRIDAY CATCHES PPL ATTENTION IF ITS GOOD OR BAD…
I GUESS WE’LL ALL HAVE TO WAIT AND SEE…IM SURE PPL WILL BUY IT NO MATTER WHAT THE NAME OF THE CD WOULD’VE BEEN…
i like it its ok nothing special but who cares i am going to buy it asap lol..love nicki minaj.. its BARBIE B****!!!!
I thought it was going to be more interesting than that. I was watch her Ustream waiting for her to announce it but sleep took over at about 3am
y the british accent
she sounds ridiculous
DID ANYONE ELSE WATCH THE USTREAM LAST NIGHT AND WAS GETTING IRRITATED BY HER MANAGEMENT TEAM WHO KEPT SAYING ”10,000 VIEWERS BEFORE NICKI USTREAMS” KMT FOOL IF YOU ACTUALLY HOVERED AROUND THE VIEWER COUNT, YOU WOULDA SEEN THAT THERE WAS ACTUALLY 27000+ !!
ANYWAY… PINK FRIDAY… NAAAAAAAAAAAAH. NOT FEELING IT. OH WELL, IMMA STILL BUY IT ALL THE SAME.
One of the most anticipated albums of the year ??????
SHES 25 NOT 27 ANy WAY THE TITTLE IS DOPE CANT WAIT

RANDOM TITLE TBH THE ALBUM ISN’T EVEN RELEASED ON FIRDAY IT’S RELEASED ON THE TUESDAY BEFORE BLACK FIRDAY, SO THEY SHOULD HAVE CALLED IT BLACK TUESDAY. OH WELL IM STILL GONNA BE CHECKIN FOR THE ALBUM.

CHRIS BROWN YOUR LOVE REMIX !!! http://www.hotnewhiphop.com/en/play/s/ebe76dd-59303/
Usher had 8701 (August 8, 2001) and Beyonce had B’Day (her birthday), so what’s the problem again?
BUT THAT IS USHER AND BEYONCE AND ACTUALLY HAD TITLES THAT MEANT SOMETHING.
PINK FRIDAY ? CHILE HUSH.
i love nicki and i am no matter what buying her album
but i dont like the title cuz the title should IMO be about the material on the album and the songs on the album and whats going on with her during this time, not the time its coming out
but cant wait either way
@BeyonSLAY
YES that was so annoying
did they really think that someone with over 1 million followers was gonna have 10000 viewers
lol
“IN THE NICK OF TIME”? You people complain about the title and then suggest one of the most obvious plays on her name that any moron could come up with? Honestly, I think That Grape Juice’s readers are some of the dumbest on the web.
Does it really matter? She’ll do some SERIOUS-numbers come that CD’s release! Good for her; for the fact that she’s making Rihanna look like the irrelevant no-talent-hack that she REALLY IS(?) — Good for me …!!!
….Them B****** is-her-sons …!!
X,Y,”and Z” — OUT…!
the album better make sense..because her raps I have heard are so remedial and stupid.
B.A.R.B.I.E.S -> Broke As$ Ridiculous Bit(hes Imitating Everybody’s Swag
If this album sells… Hip Hop Is Dead
What does Rihanna have to do with a Nicki Minaj post????, Y
Dumb title
I’m on the fence about this title… seems like she was being moreso “cute” about it than putting any meaning into it. But then again its her 1st album to play around with a bit I guess.
HOW IS IT ONE OF THE MOST ANTICIPATED ALBUMS OF THE YEAR? SHE HASN’T EVEN HAD A (SOLO) SINGLE IN THE TOP 30 LMAO!
YOU THROW THAT “MOST ANTICIPATED” S*** AROUND LIKE CASSIE THROWS HER RINSED OUT P**** AROUND… AKA TOO MUCH! X_X
PINK FRIDAY <<< I HOPE HER BLOOD IS PINK BECAUSE SHE IS GONNA GET SLAUGHTERED IN THE ALBUM CHARTS LMAO
#COPYTHAT
@FUTURESTARdelux
Dummy what are you talking about? Your Love is #14 as a SOLO single.

WTF DO RIHANNA HAVE TO DO WITH THIS ASSHOLE!!!!!!!
I SWEAR YOU HATERS HAVE HER ON THE MIND TOO MUCH
SHE’S NOT THINKING ABOUT A F***** WHO POST ON A BLOG
I DON’T LIKE THE TITLE
SHE SHOULD HAVE WENT WITH “IT’S BARBIE B****!!!!!”
BUT SHE’S GONNA SELL WELL CANT WAIT FOR THE ALBUM
I’ll have to say that the title is wack, tacky and generic. She just doesn’t stand out anymore, she’s all hype, she’s is slowly fading away.
I CAN’T____________________!!!!
For one….she trying to get the system by dropping in November during hoilday sales…..really…not one caught that b*******…..smh
ANd Pink Friday…smh….really….yall dumb ass kids cant be that damn stupid….really…can Yall be….smh…..s*** I guest so….
I agree with Future.
Her fan-base isn’t as big as someone like Drake.
So i don’t think she will do to much.
Eh… How much you wanna bet that this album will do like 300,000 in the first week?
I don’t really like the name, but its not like I’m gonna buy the album. Most of the album will probably leak anyway, so its whatever.
@SUPACI OH REALLY? I JUST DON’T CHECK FOR THIS KIM WANNABE SO I
WOULDN’T KNOW, EITHER WAY SHE IS GONNA FLOP NO DOUBT.
Nikki should be ashamed of herself for being a year younger than me & make stupid childish music like how she does. We grew up during the same era of REAL Rap music so she should be dropping some FYAH!!!! WTF!!! I don’t see this chick @ all!!! I heard maybe like 2 verses from diffrent song from her that I only like, the rest GIRL BYE!!!! Music is really sucking hard until it’s making the world C**!!!!
“Pink Friday????” Really, Nicki? That’s some true elementary s***, child! That s*** sound so damn LAME it’s ridiculous!
A while back, she said she was disappointed in herself because she attracts such a “young” fanbase and they listen to her explicit lyrics, yet her image is still that of a 11 year old girl and then names her debut album “Pink Friday?” Really?
I like Nicki, but sometimes she is just UGH to me! I’ll buy the album because I’m a hip-hop fan, and I’m curious to see how she will serve on her debut album. But “Pink Friday?” Again, “Pink Friday?” CHILD PUH-LEASE!
A Wack Name For a Wack B****…. “Copycat” Would Sound More Better Since She Copying Lady Gaga, Rihanna, Lil’ Kim And Britney Spears
She’s 27?? damn b**** is old.
So what is Lil Kim…oops I mean Nicki Minaj up too? And wait a minute, how has she been managing to get all of these damn awards but has not even dropped her 1st CD? Fake, Fixed, Rigged media. Yes, I love Lil Wayne but this is biasness is just ridiculous!
#PINK_FLOP
Oh joy Pink Friday, yeahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh! GTFOH! She is so corny! Kiddie ass ice cream truck rhymes and silicone b*** injections. Her 15 mins is way past it’s time!
Nicki’s album title is so kiddie and her song lyrics are also childish. Who is she trying to be, “Mariah Carey?” hahaha
I love Nicki dammit. And the album title is pure genius. I’ll be buying three copies.
a smell the third bomb of 2010, christina has the 1st, trey songz the 2nd and nicki the3rd, why not drop the project when you are still relevant, she better hope people still want to hear her fake wack accent and has yet to have a true hit yet, solo, no collaborations.
I LOVE IT.. I CAN’T WAIT NOVEMBER 23RD!!! PINK FRIDAY!!!!!!!! I THINK THE ALBUM TITLE IS CUTE AND IT FITS HER PERSONALITY…
Only 4 female rappers have double platinum or more albums…
Kim, Missy, Eve, Lauryn
Ficki will NOT be one of them…and thats a fact
WACK ASS FLOP!!!!
I was wondering how rhianna came into this post too. I am not a rhianna fan but she is a singer not a rapper. Her competition is Ciara and her ex chris brown not no nicki minaj.
Album title no, but I will still buy the album because I am anticipated. No relevant female rapper in years and whoever says Nicki ain’t got bars must not understand Hip hop. She dumb it down sometimes but she got bars.
wow, the title is pretty stupid but it don’t really give a damn, i mean, we all this album is gooing to sell. i know i’m going to buying a copy. and as for the british accent, its wierd but it gets her noticed, any publicity is good publicity……not(well, most of the time it is)
WAY more interesting than “In the Nick of time”! Oh my, how clever(!)…Her title does mean something so let it go!…She’s smart doing that ’cause she knows everyone will be shopping so they will buy her CD anyway! xoxo
BUTLER NEEDS TO SHUT HIS ASS UP NIKI SOUNDS HELLA FINE
LIL KIM LOOKS A FAKE ASS M*****
all the bitchz dont HATE on her
BITCHZ
