The latest star of Lil Wayne’s Young Money imprint, DXnext alum Nicki Minaj, is slated to drop her Pink Friday debut next month. With initial plans for November 23, Minaj has announced that her release will advance to the popular Monday-before-Thanksgiving release date of November.
The announcement was made by Rap-Up.com, who frequently is in contact with the Young Money camp.
The move will make Minaj’s debut a direct competitor with the likes of Kanye West’s upcoming release, as well as expected works from Cassidy, Akon and a Jay-Z compilation set to included unreleased tracks. (October 14)
UPDATE: The artwork was revealed today, seen above.
Ever since I heard her on the monster track, I respected her alot more. But album worthy?? That’s pushing it with me. Outside of Drake I really can’t take anymore CM/YM artist.
so don’t listen to her album or ym/cm easy as that
like tyga for example lol
right lol…Lil Wayne jr…And that brings up another point, Wayne has lost his touch because most of cm/ym raps like him. Does wayne know that he is actually killing his career???
what the hell is here problem and her monster verse was wack as shit she didnt make any sense you just thought it was good cus her flow and delivery not substance
why does she wann go against kanye shes gonna get out sold dumb bitch
True, she does lack substance. But substance isn’t really her thing I mean look at her she’s a damn barbie doll. Thats why i said she isnt album material, lack of substance. But she did impress me with her flow i must admit.
the only person with substance on that track was jay-z don’t say kanye did when he talked about money,sex,etc. stop sticking up for artists because you like them nicki aint so bad kanye will be outsold for one reason she has had more radioplay and hits for this album so the mainstream audience can also be interested and most normal people aren’t as air headed and annoying and worshipping as you “real” hip-hop heads kanye’s only medicore hit for this album was power for now kanye is good nicki is alright stop hating cause you don’t like her doesn’t mean she ain’t good or gonna sell
Yeah Jay-Z did pwn that monster track. Im sure it’s unlikely that all these albums will drop on the same day. Surely some will get pushed back.
emojo234… Even tho Nicki has radio play, and “mainstream appeal” , people are gunna bootleg her shit like anybody else. Kanye hate em or love em, got devoted fans that will buy that album and will it to go platinum. 808’s and Heartbreaks is a perfect example. He most likely will outsell her by a huge margin. She will prob. do somwhere around 700,000-850,000 at best. I doubt she overshadows her labelmate Drake. But that just my opinion.
don’t get me wrong i like kanye but it’s proven mainstream albums sell more for example carter 3,recovery, and 808’s and heartbreaks had a lot of mainstream hits my point is this album doesn’t and the masses may not buy it yes he has devoted fans but so does every rapper and imma download both albums i aint risking ten dollars for a possibly bad album it aint worth it but i hope borh are good i aont hating just saying
^^^homie have you heard massive attack, check it out and her verse on bottoms up?
she is terrible. Kanye has never been as wack as her even with that auto-tune album 808. Stop It, she is wack & annoying, full of gimmicks and if it wasnt for her looks no nigga would care. Bottom line!
her verse on bottoms up went hard yes massive attack was a flop like kanye hasn’t had a flop single didn’t even hear of him until gold digger and your missing the point you don’t LIKE her doesn’t mean your right or that she is anything you say i like both artists i hope they both sell a good amount of albums and like you “real” hip-hop heads like to say it ain’t about sales it’s about the quality of the music so let’s just see instead of hiding behind a computer and fighting about artists that are still going to be famous wether we like them or not
I’d laugh if she outsold him
oknay no way nicki will out sell Ye’ just stop kanye is world wide nicki isn’t
She killed Monster? Are you fucking kidding. She is the perfect example of style over substance…her voice theatrics where she yells and then whispers not only is incredibly annoying, its there to hide the fact she has no lyricism. Fuck this weak ass bitch hope this hoe sells 15,000 first week
whoa she has lyricism . the different voices over shadow it and yes she did kill monster. shes the only verse you’ll remember off top cuz she stands out but she wont act like that on her album she takin it back to old nicki
as long as she is signed to young money, we’ll never get the old nicki minaj back nor the old drake. As long as their YM they’ll always dumb down their lyrics and content for that damn mainstream audience.
not a good look minaj. guarantee they bump it up or a down a week like they did for drakes wack ass album
look like the same comments on sohh.com to me
Maybe she’ll make a pledge that if Kanye outsells her, she’ll quit?
we can only hope
Who CARES?!?! I guess dudes who are crazy about her great ass, but not ppl who know hip hop. She’s not even a top 5-10 FEMALE EMCEE…jean grae, Rah Digga, Invincible (out of the D), Bahamadia, Eternia, Jane Doe, Lauren hill….
and where are those wemon know ill wait…..
what are you saying steven you fuckin tool? are you trying to shit on that list of dope bitches?lol. if you knew shit about the hip hop scene you would know they all still relevant and making money and doing they thing in they own circuit. you’re an idiot i’ll vouch for any of those women, besides lauyn hill fuck that bitch. i would rather listen to some nicki minaj than that shit, she aint the worst at singing i guess
i wanna hear pusha t, and consequence album. nicki minaj is a gimmick theres no talent there, i expect her album to be average or below average
She’s the DEFINITION of SEX SELLS b-c if this bitch was ugly she’d sell 1,000 by 2015 based on LYRICAL ability…it’s truly gonna be sad when em, jay, nas retire as they’re the only ones who can get on the radio these days…compare the radio of 86-2003 to 04-2010…it’s comical if you name the top 15 emcees you found on the radio the most compared to the last 6/7 yrs…Hopefully J Cole, Jay Electronica, elzhi, dibolic, slautherhouse, one be lo and ill, copywrite, sean price and ill dudes like this can find a way to make it onto mainstream radio, but it’s not looking good…
get da fuck outta here, u fake plastic bitch! kanye’z album iz gonna kill urz that week. “my beautiful dark twisted fantasy”>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>nickgay minaj-a-tois’z career. fuck u if u disagree!
GOOD MUZIK! GOOD MUZIK! GOOD MUZIK!

Nicki Minaj`s new album Pink Friday is going to be dope. This year she has really taken the hip hop world by storm with so many hot collaborations and cool rap & hip hop music videos. When her album comes out its sure to be a smash hit. I am also looking forward to Kanye West`s new album too My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy its gonna be awesome with hot collaborations with artists such as rap star Drake, Jay Z, Beyonce and many more plus some cool Kanye West music videos to accompany these hot rap songs. Its certainly gonna be a busy time for album releases with so many hot CDs being released at the same time.
wat a fake robot machine made man industry promoting and marketing faggot. is devante even a real person? look at this fake fags post LOL
why do rappers bother to tweet or reveal dates for when their stupid album drops? It makes no fucking sence to me exp when said artist is going up against a heavy wheight in the game. I got nothing against nicki but just watch Ye gonna drop some stronger type shit and thell push her album back like flo ridas hair line.
