www.rap-up.com/2013/09/25/nicki-minaj-readies-new-album-for-2014/#more-168649Nicki Minaj is back in the lab. After judging “American Idol” and filming her first movie, the rap diva has returned to doing what she loves most, music. She is currently working on the follow-up to 2012’s Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded. “That’s actually what I’m doing right now, beginning the third album and that will be out in 2014,” Nicki told E! Online while promoting her new fragrance Minajesty. While she doesn’t miss her time on “Idol,” she has no regrets. “It was such a great experience. I would not trade it for the world,” she said. “But my heart is in my music and I had to step back and go have different experiences so that I could write my third album… That’s the most important thing in my life right now.” She was recently photographed in the studio with Miley Cyrus and Mike WiLL Made It, prompting speculation of a collaboration. However, they didn’t end up cutting any records. “I didn’t make any music with Miley,” she said. “There was a song that was a possibility but it didn’t work out.” She is also set to make her acting debut opposite Cameron Diaz and Kate Upton in the upcoming comedy The Other Woman. While she was nervous at first, Diaz eased her fears. “She came up to me in the middle of the day and was like, ‘You’re doing such a great job,’” she said. “That melted me… And that pushed me. She was like, ‘You’re making really great choices.’” On Friday, she will appear on “The Ellen DeGeneres Show” and premiere the David LaChapelle-directed commercial for Minajesty.

Her focus and drive has come back. That last album was so difficult to listen to. THAT'S WHAT happens when you rush a release. They seriously should have milked PF for the rest of 2011 had her work on the album and release it in September 2012 with Starships (if people want that to exist)/Pound the alarm as the first pop single in May and Va va voom in August then MM in November for pop. Beez in the trap and Right by my side in June and July as the urban and rhythmic pop singles (urban: I am your leader (September) and TRU album released in February during Grammy boost week with Freedom released as lead late November 2012 and then Feb 2013 (high school) and close with I'm legit in May 2013

Eh, I loved PF: RR, and not because I prefer Pop!Nicki or anything like that. I just thought it was a stronger album than its predecessor. I seem to be alone in that regard, though.
I hope she drops Pink Friday - or any variation of the word "pink" - from the title of the next album. Four records in a row with that moniker will be too damn confusing.

Decided to wander into this thread because it's been a while. That car is a really nice look for her. Is it her actual car or was it used as promo for the event? Either way, she's looking really nice.

So Nicki's Pound the alarm passed over 100M views this week. I was going through her videography since Monday is a federal holiday and i have off and realized this is another to her list: 8 videos 364M- Superbass 310M-Beauty and the beat 218M-Turn me on 172M-Where dem girls at? 155M-Starships 108M-Beez in the trap 108M-Bedrock* 107M-Right by my side
Moment for life is 12M and probably could get there by mid 2014. Check it out is14M away but no one uses that nonsense anymore so it'll be awhile.
Hopefully her next album will give us one and by mid 2014 moment for life will make it 10 vevo certified 100M viewed videos.

Just re-listened to "Freedom". Wow. It has longevity that's for sure and as she continues to brand herself it makes more sense which is probably why it has such staying power overtime.
