Wayne will never come close to matching his 2004-2009 peak but he has kind of bounced back over the last year or so. Believe Me, Loyal and the Dedication 4 mixtape were all solid. Even IANAHB2 had some great moments.

If this does well, I cannot see why she'd be unable to get a crossover radio hit by herself with the right song.

I hope it's mainly Nicki and bits of the other but something tells me the focus of the song will be Wayne/Drake unfortunately.

I was hoping for a big pop star to take the chorus. Dr. Luke did really good w/ Ne-Yo's new song, so hopefully it will at least be a good club banger maybe in the vein of "Turn All the Lights On." If Luke weren't producing this, I would've probably lost interest before even hearing it.

Nicki has delivered every time she has been featured on anything, I don't expect her to drop the ball now. And for that reason alone, I'm excited for this!

That is probably my favorite Nicki rap ever but it is ruined by Lil Herb or whoever the hell he is since it is basically a minute of her and 2.5 minutes of him finishing the song.

I'm a bit weary of this new single not because of who's featured (though I'd rather Chris Brown not be on there. I'm fine with Wayne and Drake) but because it feels more like a been there, done that. She's had collabs with all of them before and now this one has all of them so that leaves less time for Nicki presumably. But I'm still excited for it nonetheless!

Chris Brown and Dr. Luke have me pretty uninterested. But, we will see-Nicki usually has great collaborations.

She's still one of the biggest rappers ever with extremely high critical acclaim for her features. Who cares about getting #1s? She has money, she's successful, and she's still making music, so... gurl bye.

They require talent too. She's also set multiple Billboard records, so until Ashanti can break one... #byefelicia2

Ashanti did break records though....like multiple records that made her a huge force back in the gap.
I have high hopes for this, I kind of hope it's like Take It To The Head.

Oops I'm sorry, I actually love Ashanti, BUT you can't deny that Nicki hasn't had an impact on the charts (she hasn't fallen at all imo)

Idk, I definitely think that Nicki's stock has fallen a little bit. And I've loved her since Beam Me Up Scotty. Anaconda was a huge hit for her and she's been doing great at rebuilding her rap cred with features over the past 2 years but she has definitely fallen far from where she was in 2010 and 2011. A lot of her hype has died down, and I personally think a lot of it can be linked back to her decision to go pop for RR. I don't think that really won her any longterm fans because she's dropped that angle entirely now (so anyone who only loved the pop songs will go back to not caring about her as a rapper) and I really do think that she just became too out there for some people during that era which caused her to lose some fans.
Now, I don't think this means she'll Artpop on us and just completely implode BUT I wouldn't be surprised if this project isn't as successful as her last. She is still the most important female artist in hip hop right now but I think she's starting to slide a little bit and imo, she needs to deliver a really classic album to rejuvenate her hype.
