‘Va Va Voom’ vixen Nicki Minaj is wasting no time zooming to the studio to start work on her official next release.
Indeed, while fans await her forthcoming effort ‘Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded – The Re-Up’ (November 19th), the rapstress took to WestWoodTV to announce plans for her next album – eyeing 2013 as its release year.
The news will undoubtedly satiate Barbs who were not exactly thrilled out the re-release of her previous effort (despite its addition of 8 new songs). Hear the details below:
Taking the Rihanna approach can be a double edged sword. On one hand, it is not uncommon (or difficult) for rappers to release an album a year (sometimes multiple albums in one year). But, for an artist whose public profile is at its highest ever, the opportunity for fans to actually crave new music from the rapstress will be absent given the lack of time between albums – let alone the lack of demand (as evidenced by the performance of recently released singles).
However, we can’t knock the hustle. For, like J.Lo, Xtina, and others before her, it is best to capitalize on the reality talent show train while you’re on it – for one season can see you in while the other out. So, it ultimately does make sense that she would release some new music while aboard ‘American Idol’.
Is 2013 too soon for a new Nicki Minaj album?
She would release the album in the same week of Mariah next album, you will see.
So will this be the 4th album or 3rd do re releases count as new albums???
It will be considered as a 3rd album
re-releases do not count as new albums…album sales get added to the original album…they also don’t tend to sell that well…something tells me Nicki’s gonna do pretty well though…but i know the haters are gonna say it flopped not considering the fact that it’s a re-release
Shes pushing out material at a rapid pace because she knows her 15 minutes are almost up. Flop album sales, flop singles that have yet to hit #1 after multiple tries, flop tour. She’s suppose to have this strong fan base yet they dont buy her music or support her show. American Idol is slayed by The Voice on a weekly basis. Her new album will no doubt flop harder than PF:RR and she will fade into oblivion.
American idol isn’t even on idiot.
American Idol has not even started, try again. The Voice slays X-Factor USA and not American Idol. The Voice averages 10 to 12 million viewers, American Idol averages 20 to 35 million viewers. X-Factor is in the 7 to 9 million viewers range.
STFUP B**** she gott more rap then your long neck ass h**
Pink Fuckery, Pink Fuckery. Why dosent this b**** go away
why is that guy always with her is he like her puppy or b****

“shes a flop” MAD
“who’s checkin for her” MAD

LMFAO #thethirstisreal
take ya’ll rihanna navy asses on a rihanna post and help her get her 1st #1 album since..the BEGINNING of her career, 7 albums, 6 years, no #1?? #OUCH!
Two Albums, 3 years, under the top 3!!! #bitcheswhat
i like beyonce so no shade…
Hmm lets see:
Rink Friday: Roman Reloaded flopped. Has yet to sell 1.4 million world wide.
Beez in the Trap flopped
Stupid H** flopped
Did It On Em flopped
Right By My Side flopped
The Boys flopped
Rihanna’s albums dont go to #1 but all of them have outsold Roman ReFlopped. Now sit
huh? how is selling over 1 million flopping? most artist don’t do that…which would make almost everyone a flop lol
all the songs you named charted…Beez In The Trap was #7 on Billboard hiphop charts…Stupid H** broke Vevo record and was only a buzz single…Did It On Em was #3 on the billboard hiphop chart and she NEVER released it (it was just a fan favorite)
The closet song to being a “flop” is The Boys…it charted on hip/r&b but it’s working it’s way up
and i love how you forgot VaVaVoom, Pound Yhe Alarm, and Starships…the song that holds the record for longest run EVER in the billboard top 10
selling ONLY A MILLION WORLDWIDE IS A FLOP….
THAT IS… ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU CAN’T SELL A MILLION IN YOUR OWN COUNTRY…
SHE FLOPPED WITH THIS ALBUM….
ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU DID 1.8 MILLION WITH YOUR FIRST ALBUM…
ONLY A MILLION WORLDWIDE IS FLOP S***…
so the whole music industry is a flop? lol ummm ok
and it’s not 1 million on the dot…it’s like 1.2-1.3 million
LMAO AT THESE DELUSIONAL FANS WHO THINK 1 MILLION WORLDWIDE IS AN ACCOMPLISHMENT!!! LOOOL I CANT!!!!!
What does Rihanna have to do with ths? You all just like to hate on Rihanna for no apparent reason.
since rihanna name was in post
Well, Rihanna does suck. That could be why.
I soooooo cannot wait for a new Nicki Minaj album. The Re-Up will be amazing, It is going back to the rap game. Nicki Minaj is so talented.

Also, notice where Beyonce got the idea for her halloween costume she posted on her Rihanna inspired instagram (Baddie Bey), the gold teeth and fangs, stolen from Nicki Minaj’s verse on the monster track. This Beyonce b**** is so not original. Anyway big up Nicki Minaj.
THIS BEYONCE B**** HAS SOLD NICKI MINAJ’S CAREER WITH A 1 ALBUM… HAVE A DAMN SEAT…
YOUR B**** CAN’T EVEN REACH A MILLION IN THE U.S. ANYMORE…
HAHAHAHAHAHHAHAAA!!!
MAD? BEYONCE HAS GRAMMYS, NUMBER 1 HITS, NUMBER 1 ALBUMS, 13 MILLION ALBUMS SOLD IN THE U.S…
400 MILLION IN THE BANK…
NOT EVEN LIL GRIMLIN CAN COME FOR HER… LET ALONE FLOP ASS MINAJ…
AND YOU WONDER WHY YOUR FLOP ASS FAV WILL NEVER GET THAT COLLABORATION SHE’S DESPERATELY SEEKING WITH BEY…
BEY PAYS HER F****** ROYALTY DUST…
BEY DON’T HAVE TIME FOR HIP HOP COURT JESTERS…
I hope its more hip-hop. Not half hip-hop half generic pop, I mean full hip-hop. Or at the least, closer to her debut for commercial appeal. I think people would respect her more if she put out a solid hip-hop album.
its too late. once you go pop, hip hop heads leave the bulding and never come back.
duetting with justin bieber and singing about bass and starships killed all of her urban credibility.
THIS CHICK IS TRYING WAY TO HARD TO STAY RELEVANT. WE ALL KNOW THE RE-UP WILL FLOP HARDER THAN MDNA. SHE AND WACK-ASS TEAMMINAJ CAN HAVE SEVERAL _/_/_/_/_/_/ AND SB (FENGALI) CAN SUCK IT. HE ONLY GETTIN HIS LIL 15 MINUTES BECAUSE HE WITH HER. FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO DONT KNOW HES HER “B****” AKA BAG-HOLDER, TO MAKE HIM FEEL LIKE HES APART OF SOMETHING, SHE MADE HIM A&R OF RINK FRIDAY PRODUCTIONS LOL. ALL HER S*** IN 2012 FLOPPED. NOW SHE THINK SHE FOOLING ERRYBODY BY DOING THE RIHANNA “1-ALBUM PER YEAR” STRATEGY. B**** PLEASE SUCK CAROL MARAJS P****, EAT ROBERTS D*** AND LET JELANI ASS TO GO TO PUBLIC F*** ONIKA TANYA MARAJ……#STUPIDHOE

she’s so fake, Barbie is jealous.
Yet there absolutely is no more annoying personality in current popular music than Ms. Minaj. Her fashion, her flow, her dumb little voices, her stupid f****** name — Nicki Minaj is the trashiest, most annoying act going.
Here’s a complete catalog of why… Her Stupid F****** Name Yes, I prefer the classic double-K spelling of Nikki but that’s not really my issue. We even have a Nicki around the office and she’s OK. But Minaj? This chick’s real name is Onika Tanya Maraj, which sounds like it could do the job. Instead, she switched a few letters to make it sound vaguely dirty – Ménage obviously being a French loanword co-opted to mean threesome. It’s trashy as hell, and every time I hear it I think it sounds like a really dumb pun. At the very least it makes it impossible to take her seriously. Yes, lots of pop tarts play the hoochie game. It sells, I get it. However, it’s doubly annoying that Nicki goes and gives Vibe a quote about how she doesn’t want or need to w**** it up. Not true – starting with that annoying name. Speaking of her claims about not using s**… Her Lack of Respect for Her Obvious Direct Influences
“When I grew up I saw females doing certain things, and I thought I had to do that exactly,” she says. “The female rappers of my day spoke about s** a lot… and I thought that to have the success they got, I would have to represent the same thing. When in fact I didn’t have to represent the same thing,” Nicki said. This is an obvious shot at ladies like Lil’ Kim who is too old, deaf and incarcerated to play the part of competitor anymore anyway. You’re basically the only chick in the game right now, Nicki, so, please, show a little f****** respect for the person you stole your entire black Barbie image and girly-girl flow from. Speaking of her flow… Her Awful Verse on “BedRock” Might Be The Worst in the History of Rap. Look, “BedRock” is a s***** song to begin with — the surest sign yet Young Money has become the next Bad Boy — but it’s Nicki Minaj’s s***** verse that really makes it f****** unlistenable. Yes, Gudda’s stupid line about being “that Red Bull” is trite and Lloyd’s T-Pain impersonation bothers me, but it’s Nicki singing about being “the bestest” off the top (is the next line actually “like asbestos” — that’s what I’ve always thought?) that really f****** kills it. Like most people, this was the first time I heard Minaj, and I still remember the immediate sense of repulsion I felt when she opened her mouth to do that stupid little kid verse. Again, she got a 360 deal with s*** like that. Well, that and a pretty face, thin waist and huge buns, as Mr. Mix-A-Lot would say. Speaking of those buns… Whatever that Stuff on Her Ass is, It’s Ugly
Some people say Nicki Minaj got ass implants. Others say she uses b*** pads. She, of course, denies there’s anything unnatural involved in the most condescending way possible, “People will pick anything to talk about, and that happens to be the thing at the moment.”
Whatever it is, I don’t like it. Hey, I like Kim Kardashian, J.Lo and Beyounce as much as the next guy, but Minaj’s plastic parts are just gross. Disturbing, really. It’s the sort of thing that can totally invert a boner — which is dangerous. Speaking of turning people on… She Uses Trumped Up Claims of Bisexuality to Sell Records. Nicki walks a really, really fine line with her sexuality. On one hand, she wants guys (and some sympathetic women) to totally think she’s bi if they find that s***. On the other hand, she claims an appreciation for the female form but says doesn’t actually hook up with chicks, which is a good way to not alienate slightly more conservative fans.
She says it’s about “no labels” but I don’t for a second buy that she means that in any way beyond the marketing implications. Sorry to the ladies at B**** Magazine, but Minaj isn’t for real with this — it’s not that she won’t “risk her career” but is dropping “clues” about it — it’s that she’s not that into girls, she just wants to sell records. Or maybe I should put it this way: I hear she really wants to date Anne Heche. But speaking of marketing gimmicks… She Co-Opted the Susan G. Komen Foundation’s Pink Friday Event to Promote Herself Nicki sure knows how to work the media — witness the situation where she scored tons of free ink by doing a little PSA for the breast cancer-fighting Susan G. Komen association the same week her record was dropping. The group’s event, and her album, were both called Pink Friday. What exactly did Nicki do to “help”? Well, she issued a statement and gave a brief interview via Skype — in exchange the group disseminated her statement to their giant media list and played one of her s***** videos on their webcast. “I fully support the efforts of Pink Friday and the goal of raising funds to support Susan G. Komen for the Cure and their charge to bring an end to breast cancer,” said Minaj. “I am pleased to be associated with the Pink Friday initiatives and to raise awareness amongst fellow African American women who are often the hardest hit by breast cancer.” While it makes sense that the Komen group would be excited to have a star on-board — especially if they know very little about her totally offensive career — I can’t seem to find what, if anything, Ms. Minaj did to help the cause besides issuing a brief statement of support and a short interview from the comfort of her own home. No “such-and-such will be donated,” no public appearance, just a few words of support typed by her publicist and a little chat on video with a friendly interviewer. Yeah, this was her “contribution” to the cause.
Not bad in exchange for getting to plug the name of her album twice in that statement, which was widely distributed to media! So tacky. And so very Nicki.
whoa you just sat there and wrote an essay…def not going to read that but I’m impressed that you sat there and dedicated so much time to someone you dislike…wow
Exactly, I read the FIRST line and didn’t bother, it took a good 5 seconds to scroll past all of it, but wow, some people have a lot of time to dedicate toward those that they “dislike”.
She aint no rihanna but she def got what is needed to become a successful female hip hop artist ( okay singing, she is gorgeous, talented, and has a booty
Lol,either u like it or not nicki minaj aint going anywhere,I truly believe that nicki minaj haters are her motivators.just sit ur fucken asses down,cause nicki doesn’t care wat ya’ll r saying she’ll remail staple
