Tbh i reckon i will buy Pink Friday:Roman Reloaded this week i am so intrigued by it...heard some leaks and i am actually surprised...she reminds me a bit of grace jones (in some elements of course) and it took for her to work with my fave artist ever to truly appreciate her.

I reckon she may be definitely going places. Think i may order the deluxe though as it has Turn Me On and everyone seems to love Va Va Voom too.

My deluxe edition of the pre-order has been downloaded! Roman Holiday is brilliant, so excited to hear the rest.

Im glad you are on here....we share simialr tastes...so it proves hat i have just ordered is the right thing to do . And to be fair i am so surprised by what i have heard.

Posted in the Madonna AT...Minaj could be my surprise album of this year for me! Like Bey last year...ROman Reloaded sounds like an absolute smash!

We do share similar tastes, that's so cool!

Roman Holiday the studio version is absolutely bonkers, Minaj at her best, if you saw it at the Grammy's, you'll love the studio version. There's lots of Starship-esque songs too and a good amount of singing. I like Nicki when she sings. Her raps are brilliant too. I'm about halfway through, not going to listen to Va Va Voom till it comes up in the tracklist, I can wait a little longer. No fillers so far, so it could well be your surprise album.

I hope Ms Minaj gets the #1 spot this week, even if it means dethroning Madonna.

Wow. I'm really loving this album, not to suprised as i've loved all the buzz singles (minus her grammy performance) although I love Roman Holiday now.
Hoping the second half isn't fillers though!

I hope not to me the pop side of the album is pure genius! (IMHO)

BTW Nicki is # 2 on iTunes album chart!

Well Madonna has set a new record anyway....and MDNA was on top for its full week so it doesnt matter IMO and no one can dethrone M but Nicki has worked with her (amazingly...just think if she didnt i may still be lukewarm to Minaj)

ANd i love what i have heard from this disc....cannot wait to hear more about her it all really intrigues me really. We will see chartwise how it does in the UK.

My only issue is she has become a bit too commericial and I believe that is may be due to pressure by her label, which saddens me.
Josh Pinder

Well Nicki must go to the masses....the thing what i am picking up with this is that Nicki is searching herself through her Hip Hop orientated roots and her Pop influences. So she can multi task both areas...i think actually that is what has drawn me to this project tbh.

And if she can harness the Pop market then well done to her really. But Nicki is the commercial side of Hip Hop...and while i am not a Hip Hop fan at all by a landslide! So that is the main surprise for me here too.

I do think working with ]\/[ and Brit Brit have had an influence on La Minaj!

Thats really good! Madonna is at 6,000 at number 5, so seems like this week will be a slow(er) week but at least Minaj is number 1...hope it remains personally.

Pound The Alarm is best imo.

Some of the Urban side on the album is very intense isnt it...I Am You Leader and Beez In A Trap will need to grow on me...HOV Lane is sounding vapid...i like that! Champion i am on right now....very different in production to the previous songs I like it.

Not keen on her Chris Brown duet on Right By My Side nor Sex In The Lounge ....Starships on blast now...i think this is more my scene of INSTANTS
