having trouble letting go of your work and iterating on it to the last minute is true artistry

girls rapping what the label tells them to can't relate

[Diet Pepsi]

Republic probably regrets giving the green light for the album

y'all are missing your fourth usual suspect to be camped out in the nicki threads with you, where she at

I know they're devastated their multiple vinyl pre-orders may not arrive by release day, but I promise, they'll make it through!

tea, i’d be a MESS as a musician

 

delays, re-recordings, and shelving pff

[Blue Monday]

Why am I sensing mess 

[Kintsugi]

I hate how the need for physicals to inflate album sales nowadays forces artists to make an album and not be able to put it out instantly or be allowed to change things, the last thing that I want from her is yet another rushed half-assed album, so I'm glad she's still working on whatever she feels like needs some work, hope she changes her mind and Blonde + Nicki Hendrix make an appearance on the tracklist

rerecording a verse to hit harder because you're an actual artist who cares about your craft > dribbling out nonsense lyrics that your fans tell you to leave in the vault 

The "craft" in question and the meta scores: 

 

Pink Friday - 68

Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded - 60 

Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded -- The Re-up - 72

The Pinkprint - 70 

Queen - 70 

 

the self-proclaimed queen of Rap can't do better than 72? A C-?

Lmao well played, finally someone with receipts and not conspiracy 

 

To be fair being a good rapper doesn’t translate to making a good album / having good a&r. I’ve always been frustrated that Nicki throws away many of her best verses to features and not for her own work

If history is to go by, somewhere within it there will be a good album, but it will be unfortunately bloated lol

she said it "won't have too many songs" and we know it's less than 43 minutes as it's a 1 LP which is even more worrying  with her past albums once you take off the filler you're left with a cute little 12 track album at minimum, I'm scared with PF2 it'll be 4 songs

This. She is clearly very talented but lacks an artistic vision and focus to create a good project because she's too worried about chart performance and getting extra streams. It's kinda embarrassing that someone of her caliber pen game has yet to make a good album 

 

No wonder she was fuming when Cardi dropped her first and only album and it was critically acclaimed from the jump while Cardi was hopping on every other pop song for a verse

Thoughts?  Do you think she will delay it again? 

 

 

I admire her artistic vision almost as much as I’m shocked that she has one. The fact that she cares so much more about perfecting her music (than I ever thought she did) has given me a new found respect for her.
