B****! I’m ready like I never was before!!! The PinkPrint was such a solid album and deserved a Grammy tbh. TPP was very urban, can’t wait for this upbeat slayage.
LOL DELUSIONS
Agreed The Pinkprint was so far her best album
It will do Demi Lovato numbers and you will deal. I cant wait to see her be ignored by all the award shows save the BET Awards and tank down the charts again.
So basically another Pink Friday: RR trash album, no thanks.
Lool! I think it’s the only thing her fans are here for at the moment tho. She sold out, Hip-Hop don’t want her back.
@Dem Lessers How did she sell out if all of her hip hop releases from Pinkprint were successful? She only released 2 pop singles and none of them made a real impact.
@boopie bi tch her whole cd was pop and fkopped. Now that SB aint wtittin for the h** she goin pop?? Lololololpl flop!! Lil Kim killed her…WITHOUT A MAJOR RECORD LABEL!!!
@truth “lil kim killed her” LMAO sis what has kim done in the past 7 years besides lie about her paypal/craigslist mixtape sales. I could name everything Nicki has been up to in the same amount of time but since you’re her biggest stan on this site i’m sure you already know
@abel bit ch u mad? Wat has Kimdoe? Ho she killed Icki and u will DEAL!! What has Icki done laaately? Yea ho yew mad. I c y u mad.
Anyway it makes sense she would go the upbeat route seeing that Safaree isn’t ghost writing for her anymore.
YEAH COS on pop records, all she gotta do is say: “barbies flyiing lalala…. on the ceiling…. wooop woop woop…” on a catchy beat, and that’s her next big hit.
She’s a bum, for real.
like any other pop artist..
Gurl please. Have you heard any of Safaree’s raps? If anyone needs a ghostwriter it’s him
And he wrote for the ho u stan for tho. Do what does SHE need? Ill wait biitchh… ??? and eat while i do
man you are annoying, you are always on Nicki post mad as hell, dude go get a f-cking life whatever is going on that is making you so mad it’s an’t nicki, you need to understand that.
YASSS mam, slay everyone with that upbeat!
LOL! She’s done pop before and slayed no one. This plastic rat is a flop in EVERY genre.
she slayed everyone. fuc is you talkin bout ? Superbass and Starships had the pop girls shook.
New Pop Album : And after that, they will still calling her “The best selling female RAPPER all of time”… SMH ?
Because she his !! ?
Honey she a flop.
You don’t understand my point, so…
Smh guess she didn’t learn from that mess that was Roman Reloaded.
Oh well I need some cute gym bops
She is truly irrelevant now i forgot all about her lol
Lies
Never did you forget
Now that Safaree is gone, she has no choice but to go straight POP. She built her entire career on a lie. She made her fans believe she was an authentic writer and all other female rappers INCLUDING MISSY didn’t write. Barbz liked her for her Lil Kim Swag and Lil Kim Barbie persona. She even took her nickname Coockie from her high school friend. Can we say FRAUD?
The reach is real
Point out the lie.
1st of all..your name is Yolanda. We’re done here.
Haters comes hard for Onika in her ???
I guess we will all see…. ?
Her music is always pop.
Dancepop, electropop and pop rap.
If it sounds anything like the FIRST Pink Friday with smart hip hop/pop infusion then it will SLAY. If it sounds too much like Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded it will be a MESS.
So much hate for Nicki lol her last album may have only sold 1m+ worldwide but it wasn’t even a flop. Her SONGS were playing and selling everywhere and her album got streamed very well which is why it received a double platinum certification. Ya’ll downplay streaming but not everyone gets their albums played constantly. It’s saving Drake’s album which has been #1 for about 12 weeks on streaming alone.
It did not sell 1 million worldwide. She stalled at around 860k worldwide. Show me receipts that say otherwise
Y U Mad? is it because your my little pony fave’s first single in 3 years fell about 50 spots in 1 week even though her archenemy was getting dragged mercilessly at the same time or maybe because her fanbase graduated 3rd grade and are now too old give a damn about a cocaine addicted former kidz bop queen?
Lies
The Pinkprint is TRIPLE platinum worldwide.
On Spotify alone, the sales of this album is 1.4 Million worldwide
http://www.rollingstone.com/music/news/nicki-minaj-argues-streaming-should-count-toward-album-sales-20151217
I love nickiminaj but every since she been with meek it’s been going down hill yes we need a first pink Friday and tpp mix the will be dope we’ll see when her first single comes every one borrowing from every I don’t care how u say that’s original it comes from some where just like clothes modeling shoots movies but anyway I wish her the best
But Nicki Minaj never made her stealing her own. She copied word-for-word, like Melania Trump. That’s why Safaree was rapping about “copying” in his earlier songs. He was throwing shots, “copy/paste, crop your face”, “you can’t copy me if you were Kinkos.”
HELLLLNOOOO!!!! If this is going to be anything like the last 10 tracks of PF RR she can keep it! She’s shooting for a number one rather than real music
She’s desperate
Like you
But she doesn’t wanna be called “pop”. Nothing but desperation. The end of the FAD that was Nicki Minaj is finally upon us and I say good. All she is is a tacky and awkward mix of Lil Kim and Lady Gaga.
I mean is anyone still interested? It felt like he fell off the face of the earth! Even while imputing herself into everyone’s song. Songs that ain’t go nowhere at that. Poor thing. This about to be a pop mess with Edm abuse and nursery rhyme nanigma. Overtly generic.
Another pop album? Guess she has to pay the bills for her p*** brother…
Chile, those bills are unfortunately paid for already. Cute tho.
Her last album was suppose to be a real hip hop album but then Iggy came and got that #1 song and that’s what birthed “Anaconda”. So she’s still trying to get that #1 Billboard Hot 100 single which is evident seeing it’ll be another pop album.
A Tinashe stan talking about trying to chart….. i won’t go there but just remember Nicki gave her a nice summer job mopping the stage floors during the Pinkprint tour and you should be thankful. Dej Loaf has 3 certified singles, just keep that in mind
I’m so ready! She’s about to get that hot 100 #1 for sure with these upcoming pop hits. I love how Rih and her give the fans what they want with the urban/R&B albums and then switch it up with pop albums following. Oh, the haters will seethe and the arenas/stadiums for the supporting your will fill.
Prepares New Pop Album???
But you wanna be called the queen of rap?? chick release a hiphop/rap album… so sick of overrated artist.. like ya time is up! where’s the next female rapper that actual does a rap album???
These days… RAP is POP(ular)
When will she learn? It can be pop, hip-hop, trap, edm, R&b, country, jazz, or screamo, she will flop in every single category. The saddest part is that this plastic rat is so arrogant when she doesn’t have the receipts to be so. Her highest selling album barely did 3 million worldwide and that was back when people still brought albums. Over 60 Hot 100 entries and NONE have hit #1, including her bubblegum pop ones. Her tours have all flopped, even with Groupon deals. At least she has her K-Mart line lmao! Nicki is the biggest joke in music and irrelevant to everyone outside of the black community. Her next album will do Demi Lovato numbers, bookmark me. I’ll be here to drag her and her stans too 😉
What would you say are Demi Lovato numbers? No one flops as hard as her, truth be told.
A peak at 500k worldwide. Those are “Demi Lovato numbers”.
Lmfao drag that hoeeeee…
Selena’s Tour is not only out grossing the Future Flop Tour, but it also has a higher attendance. I think we know which album has more certifications too, but it’s just truth I guess.
I don’t care for Onika but trying to use being known by mainly a Black audience as a drag is very telling of the kind of mindset you have. Many of our greatest artists made a living without crossing over. In an effort to scalp you ended up doing too much and exposing yourself.
So Many Nicki Haters These Are Lil Kim’s Fans Seems Bitter Where Is Her Paypal Mix tape Album On Charts?
Girl you’re so late with that 2008 read
So what’s new??? She’s been doing that rachet horrible “POP/Rap” remix! FOH!
She does a lot of pop music anyway.
But the Barbz are quick to say Biggie wrote ALL Lil Kim’s raps but Lil Kim produced 2 plats and 1 gold (that’s prolly plat now) after Biggie’s death. Kim always said that she doesnt mind rapping somebody else’s words but she does write. Biggie, Ebro, Lox, RayJ, MJB all testified to Kim writing. She wrote Wait a Minute for RayJ.
Barbs need to admit that they STANNED for a lying, snake, fraud. Fendi said he NEVER saw her write. Kanye sent her home from Hawaii to rewrite Monster and she returned with Safaree’s bars. Safaree just admitted on Billboard that he wrote Chiraq from the ground up.
In conclusion, name ONE corny rap lyric from Lil Kim. You might not like the song, music, or production. But Kim has never spat a corny lyric. Never!
“i be on that new s***, bananas in my asshole
my man be on that new s***, wanna f*** me til my eyes roll”-No flex zone remix
“i caught some n****’s disease”- Big momma thang
“Queen of rap? F*** outta here
Queen is back, f*** outta here
Time to get this wack b**** up outta here
I woke up like this, f*** outta here
I’m so awesome, I’m so f*****’ awesome
These h*** wanna be me cause they know Kimmy, she flawless….
I just had a baby ’bout a week agooooooo
These b****** got me on my bully yo”-Flawless Remix
All wack ass lyrics from lil HIM
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D8ExdMXjujw
here’s nicki writing boo 😉
I’d rather have urban but i’ll support her either way, She sings better than Cokehead Perry anyway
Trust and believe me. This next album and tour will move mountains for Nicki’s career. I’m so beyond ready for the slayage tornado.
Agreed.
Best selling female rapper of ALL TIME.
Two #2 albums, one #1 album.
Two Double Platinum album and one Triple Platinum album, but people call her flop.
She will slay with her next album for sure.
Mistake !
PINK FRIDAY: 3X Platinum
PINK FRIDAY: ROMAN RELOADED: 2X Platinum
THE PINKPRINT: 2X Platinum
Platinum by streams only goes to show how broke her fans are. Stay in your feelings; The Nicki hate train won’t let up unless she evaporates from the industry.
But y’all said that about her second alberm. What happened?
You’re stanning for Queen-bred chick with valley girl Rebecca Black vocals. Nicki can’t sing for sheeeeit. HA!
@kwinzy Hum ok, streaming does not count for Nicki, but for Drake, Rihanna and other It counts.
Now streaming is part of the game FOR EVERYONE.
nnn she is so desperate for a #1. I guess hopping on the remix of tracks like Maroon 5’s Sugar for a quick Billboard credit wasn’t enough so she’s going back to making a PF: Roman Retarded mess. Sad!
Death at Halsey getting ready to get a #1 hit next week while half of y’alls fave’s remain desperate and trying.
Says an scary ass AlcohoLana stan who constantly is switching which tumblr dyyke she’s claiming to avoid the fact that her real fave hasn’t been thought about since the Born to Drink era ended.
I am living for these comments. Haters are “coming” in like Jelani Maraj to a 12 year old. Ha!
Funny how the stans racing in here the ones who’s faves are flopping in 2016. How is KUNTY Perri new single doing? WTF is a Lana Dell Ney? Has Antibotics outsold TPP in the US yet? Ciara. The name alone
speaks for itself. I’m so ready for Nicki music it’s long overdue. Come through Queen. The haters will remain pressed and stressed.
LET THESE STRESSED PRESSED AND DEPRESSED HOEZ KNOW!!!!!!!!!!!! They been saying she’s on her 14th minute for 7 years and they can’t take how wrong they continue to be
DEATH!!! Not Antibiotics!! ?????????
I really don’t get the nicki hate here tho?
Generally artiste aren’t selling well e.g rihanna & so much more.
Also whether y’all like it or not she’s still sells more than most out here except bey Taylor adele & prolly katy.
Also whether accepted or not nicki raps better than some of these rap ladies & definitely didn’t depend on safaree seeing as he hasn’t been relevant since nicki split & even his few songs are wack as hell.
Talking of tours tell me what rap artist in general much less Female rappers who pulls in nicki crowd numbers except now drake, jay, kanye
finally she is one of the 3 black females doing decent numbers so all the haters can go hang themselves.
If they only knew that all their hate comments makes this post more popular lol stupid azzes
WHATS SAD IS THAT THEY TRY EVERY YEAR TO COME FOR NICKI BUT LIL KIM IS NO WHERE ON THE CHARTS I MEAN WHERE IS HER MUSIC THEY KEEP SAYING NICKI IS A FLOP AND SHE DONE THEN WHY SHE KEEP WINNING EVERY YEAR AND STILL RELEVANT.
I doubt this will be a pop album. I think he means upbeat in the sense of tone. The last album was a break up album. She’s in “love” again so..its only right that the album will be “Upbeat”
Whoever wrote this article was being shady. They know the connotation behind her pop music. She’s not gonna do what she did before. But the truth is that POP music stands for POPULAR music. Therefore hip hop can be pop which is mainly why she gets played on top 40. She crossed over which is hard for an artist to do led alone a female rapper. Yall should be glad that a woman has a position next to soooo many powerful men in this industry but I forgot how messy gays are. You’d rather talk about her edges than congratulate a black woman.
“These nappy headed h*** need a perminator”
Any black woman who used the same racist & bigoted words from Don Imus to disrespect other black women is not worth congratulating. Don’t hate us ’cause we’re woke. Try again.
Ooh shut yo lil stupid ass up. I haven’t seen a reach that far in a long time. Anyway being called nappy head is a part of our culture and it was for the craft nothing more nothing less. You screaming out about how you woke but how when is the last blm movement you went to? What have you given and done for the black community? I’ll wait.
@F_gzou
You’re the first to call out white people for being racist yet give pass to Nicki for doing the same sh*t. I’m disappointed in you fr. You’re a total hypocrite. Lauryn Hill made solidified herself as a nappy headed dreadlook wearing black woman and she has 100% class compared to Nicki. Nicki brings down other black women to raise herself up. She’s disgusting and I’m glad karma is coming her way via Jelani Maraj. Bish caters to white America…another pop album?? She’ll never be respected in the hip-hop community for selling out the way she does. PERIOD. THE END. GOODBYE.
SERIOUSLY WHEN WILL THE HATE STOP SHE IS SUCCESSFUL AND WILL CONTINUE TO BE BECAUSE OF ALL THE HATERS THAT KEEP HER NAME RELEVANT AND ALL HER FANS LIKE ME WHO SUPPORT HER. SO KEEP ON HATING JEALOUSY IS UGLY. CAN’T WAIT FOR THIS ALBUM ♥
Just because she’s recording pop songs doesn’t mean it’ll be a pop album. But it we wanna keep it real Nicki is an official cross over act, her pop singles aren’t flops, and if Nicki did a straight rap album and it was hot and I would bet my bottom dollar she still wouldn’t get the support that a male(Drake) gets. So she’s going to be smart about it that’s for sure.
This is not hate. These are facts. Barbz just mad because they got played by a fraud. The Barbz spent their entire fandom looking at Lil Kim Part 2.0. They even named themselves after Lil Kim persona ie Barbz. Don’t be mad at us, be mad at Nicki Minaj. Question her for her trickery. At least Lil Kim fans are honest and would’ve called Kim out on the crap. The Barbz just want to stay blind and pretend they’re right. I challenge you to make Nicki Minaj account for her lies. Oh yeah, she’ll just block yall.
Oh, did I forget to mention her gay fraud? Nicki Minaj lured the gay community and then like a hot mic she dropped them. FRAUD!
Nicki will never ever top her Pink Friday era again. She’s a sell-out flop who loves to throw glass stones at others and laugh at their misfortunes. The bish needs to stay mute and disappear from the industry with her fraudulent millions. I dare her to call someone a bish a$$ n!GGa again like she did SB.. All it takes is one clapback of Nicki’s r***** brother to puncture her like a wound that’ll NEVER heal. Forced trauma…blunt!
Lil Mama got her on 4pm whether the Barbz wanna admit it. I don’t like the fact that she tried to come at my era. That means she is saying my fond memories ain’t nothing. The grooves I was rocking to were stale and the boyfriends I reminisced about during that era was nothing. She got the Barbz laughing, not at Lil Kim, but at my era, my memories, etc. She didn’t even give them an opportunity to rock to our female rappers and judge for themselves. Now, none of them can listen to the GREATS without dissing them FOR NO REASON other than their fav is an insecure fraud. Everybody loved All Hail the Queens Hip Hop Honor because my era of female rappers were and still are bosses. Nicki convinced her barbz that sales were the key but when Iggy outsold her, then writing was the key, I mean the lie. FRAUD!
You know your discography is weak af when a mixtape (beam me up Scott) sh*ts on all her albums.
But why tho? We’re all still trying to forget that mess that was Roman Reloaded. If she’s trying to be more upbeat and stay on trend, then do a trap album.
Go learn was a mess is.
None of Nicki album was a flop.
They all had big single & big album sale.
So try again ??
The music was a mess. The imagery was a mess. She had one huge Pop single. Other than that, the quality of that whole era was a mess and sucked. Stop being delusional.
Good for nicki
That video of her past verses on features just gave me nostalgic LIFE!
goddamn, the haters have infest this post like the f-cking roaches they are.
The only infected thing in here is your gay ass supporting a homophobic c*nt
who is homophobic, she not tweeting something doesn’t make her homophobic,she wasn’t the only one who didn’t tweet, a matter a fact f-ck you you wretched piece of t-rd.
Atleast she keeping music out and pleasing her fans.i was team kim but now im team nicki.tired of waiting on kim to drop a single or cd she came out the floor of b.e.t over a yr and still nothing.where is the tv show and cd?nicki got another cd coming b4 kims and a tv show..iggy 15 mins up.lil kim a damn liar
Kim has CATALOGUE; 20 plus years of classic rap records that stand the test of time. I’d rather have a real artist take breaks to work on their craft then an industry w**** who drops 28328020 lackluster filler tracks a year just to appease my boredom. Nicki’s more an attention w**** than she is an artist.
