★★1/2 It is clear that Nicki Minaj was not exactly sure what type of album she wanted to make when approaching her latest offering, Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded . Caught between making a "hardcore" rap album and a happy-go-lucky pop album, Roman Reloaded sounds confused at best and horribly disjointed at worst. Individual songs may be strong, but as an album, Roman Reloaded is bipolar, transitioning abruptly from violent, absurdist lyrics to sing-song hooks and dance beats. The album begins with a series of six bizarre, and to [...]
Well despite all the talk surrounding the album, I think everyone expected more sales in the first week for Pink Friday Roman Reloaded. According to Billboard Nicki's second album moved 254,000 copies in the first week. Will she make it to platinum status?
Everything's coming up Nicki Minaj . The raptress already has the #1 album in the country, and now the "Beez In The Trap" artist can add Adidas to her ever-growing list of endorsements. (If you remember, Nicki sported the athletic company's logo on her cheerleading uniform during her cameo in Madonna's "Give Me All Your Luvin'" video .) Between promoting Pepsi , launching her OPI nail polish line and being the face of MAC Viva Glam , she might dethrone Jennifer Lopez [...]
WHAT'S GOOD! Corban back in the pilot seat for Straight To Video this week, as Tom Breihan's at ActionFest , an event that sets the new record for "Most Tom Breihaniest Event Ever." Thanks to a late-night influx of vids from the Cash Money camp last weekend, there were lots of contenders for the list this week. Some notables that got chopped include 2 Chainz The Warriors -shading " Riot " and a Cloud Nothings video that reminded me of one of my favorite Simpsons episodes, so, that's [...]

Most artists would give their left arm to be inducted into the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame. But not Axl Rose ! He'd rather be seen on a T-shirt worn by Lana Del Rey these days. His letter to the Hall, Madonna 's record-breaking album sales drop, Britney Spears ' rumored X Factor salary and the announcement of three (!!) new albums from Green Day [...]
Sometimes life actually happens and that was the case last week. I hadn't missed a "Friday Remixes" in quite a while, but without further adieu, FRIDAY REMIXES #124.

Nicki Minaj has good reason to celebrate, as her sophomore album Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded topped the charts in its first week out. But the Young Money rapper didn't need to wait for the inevitable to happen to start her partying. The "Beez In The Trap" MC and a whole lot of other hangers-on (some decked out in Nicki-inspired pink wigs) filled LIV nightclub in Miami for her album release bash. The woman of the hour seems to be enjoying herself in the above video — especially when two giant tiered [...]
"A little nonsense now and then is relished by the wisest men." -Willy Wonka Cursive – "This House Alive" Looks like the dudes from Cursive are fans of The Hunger Games . Like the book/film, their latest music video is chock full of murderous children, bows and arrows, and rough wilderness. Drake - "HYFR" Somebody better tell Lil' Wayne that cough syrup isn't kosher. Feist - "Bittersweet Melodies" This video falls into the "Damn, why [...]
Justin Bieber That first-ever No. 1 single continues to slip further from Justin Bieber 's grasp. In its second week on the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart, Bieber's new single, "Boyfriend," takes a tumble. The Mike Posner -produced track slip from 2-5 this week. It debuted huge, selling 521,000 copies, but that sum fell to 295,000 copies this week, Billboard reports . Radio play is getting stronger, so maybe Bieber can claim No. 1 with it someday. Never say never, right? Bieber will have to wait until songs by fun., [...]
When Ellen Degeneres asked Maya Rudolph to play a game of Guess That Celebrity, we're pretty sure the daytime host had no idea what a treat she was in for (and quite frankly, neither did we). Ellen laid out the rules of the game: sing "Twinkle Twinkle Little Star" in the vein of the pop star in the photo held against her forehead, and the comedian would attempt to guess the singer. While Maya, known for her countless celeb impersonations during her tenure at SNL , including of Beyoncé [...]

Check out the footage Derrick G. got at Nicki's album release Party. The entire YMCMB team was out in full effect minus what looked like, Drake, but even Fred Durst and Mystikal were in the building. Even with Young Money resurrecting music careers their main players stay on top. Peep the vid below. NICKI MINAJ ALBUM RELEASE PARTY A LIV from DERICK G on Vimeo .

"Non voglio offendere le mamme o i loro figli, come quando lei pagano per vedere un mio show. Ma non sono entrata in gioco per essere un'artista che possa attirare anche i bambini" Nicki Minaj , esplosa negli ultimi tempi e pronta a vendere sempre più copie di singoli e del suo nuovo album, si è espressa così nei confronti dei fan e del tipo di pubblico a cui si rivolge. Il suo scopo è interessare adulti o ragazzi, niente bambini. E su chi la paragona un po' a [...]
No matter how shiteous fashionably looking, the NICKI MINAJ always makes for a decent gif, created by I whilst finished editing me latest interview with the .. tbc.
Nicki Minaj 's Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded has become her second chart-topping album after posting better-than-expected first-week sales of 253,000 copies. Unfortunately for Madonna , her "Give Me All Your Luvin'" pal bumps MDNA off the #1 spot on Billboard 's Top 200. And as noted yesterday , Madge's drop is a steep one — 86.7% to be exact. MDNA fell from sales of 359,000 out of the gate to 48,000 in its [...]
