She performed at Powerhouse tonight and no one cared to mention it? Damn. Is that a sign of a sagging career or what? You could actually watch the performances live.

Well here is my PinkPrint for the era: April 2014- Attend the MTV movie awards and present Movie premiere
late May/June 2014- Powerhouse concert UPDATE Myx commercial Work on video for new single late May 1st single May 25/June 1 UPDATE I guess I was off by 4 days ;) Summer crossover HIP HOP urban smash masterpiece (feel good anthemic song to get the hip hop heads back on her side) Perform at the BBMAs (UPDATE Just present) Perform at Summer Jam Video release the week of the BET awards Perform at the BET awards and win Hackney Weekend T in the park festival
July 2014- Shoot fall clothes commercial
August 2014- Shoot fragrance commercial and start promoting hair care line. Attend Teen choice award if the other woman is nominated Work on video for 2nd single
September 2014- 2nd single Crossover hip POP (laid back introspective, relatable song to get the girls back on her side and also could be played on top 40) VMAs performance and win Itunes festival thingy Video released end of September Put out hair care line and commercial #2 forbes cash kings
October 2014- release album 300k+ debut at #1... 1) October 13, 2014 (before Taylor's late October release) after the grammy's cutoff and let wayne/drake have their shine and Kanye's been working on releasing before the grammy cutoff and Kendrick lamar as well and just have the 1st and/or 2nd single submitted for grammy noms (here for this) 2) September 2014 right before the grammy's cutoff if she wants to have it in and submit the album (Not here for it) Both 1 and 2 will provide the album with longevity (think Katy, Pink, Taylor, Mariah/Madonna 90s albums etc.) as the a) hardcore stans will support the first month b) the bandwagon/tag alongs will support the first month c) the wishy washy casual/fickle fans will support as long as they get what they want d) always opportunity for new fans to support ...before the holiday season kicks off. ...she gets single sales/album sales boosts during big award show draws at the end of the year ...she gets album sales consistency with new singles for the first half of the year Album promo of first and second singles during a time where competition is not so high like November 2014: Powerhouse BMI awards MTV Documentary Go overseas the week prior to do promo in Japan/Europe (UK, Germany etc.) X Factor UK, This Morning, Alan Carr: Chatty Man, Graham Norton Show, Daybreak, BBC Breakfast, 4Music,Viva (& other various UK music channels) -Fuse interview -Ellen interview -Queen Latifah interview -105.1 breakfast club interview -Live kelly and michael interview -GMA interview -Letterman/kimmel interview -Ryan seacrest/ z100 NY interview -Target deal -Internet ad/tv commercial/fragrance commercial -Jimmy fallon interview -Saturday night live since it premieres late September/October -Radio/Internet/Magazine promo blitz -Rolling stone, vogue, elle, marie claire,vibe, the source entertainment weekly, glamour, v, etc.

January 2015- Work on 2nd movie villain drama/suspense Attend and perform at PCA/NRJ awards and wins
February 2015- Attend and perform at Grammys and is nominated (for song since album should be released after Grammy’s cutoff)...might win Work on world tour until 1st week of March Tickets go on sale for tour It makes no sense to start in January and she would probably need a few months to prepare after doing a massive fall promo campaign spend January/February working on World Tour Work on Video for 4th single (Uptempo 2nd and final crossover HIP POP single)
March/April2015- Perform at Idol's last season Release 4th single video Return on the Rap fix hottest MCs...top 5.
[/B]Spring World tour kick off 3rd week of March in East coast. I want an 90+ date arena tour: late March-mid- May 2015 Arena tours N/S America (35) (30-35 main cities NYC, Uniondale, Sacramento, Seattle, Anaheim, Oakland, LA, Vegas, Chicago, Philly, Dallas, DC, Miami, St. Louis, Toronto, Quebec, Vancouver, Houston, Boston, Puerto Rico, Phoenix, Denver, New Orleans, Kansas City, Columbus, Cleveland, ATL, Charlotte, East Rutherford, Tampa, Orlando, Providence, Trenton, Milwaukee, San antonio) and South America (5 countries Trinidad, Brazil, Columbia, Chile, Argentina)

September 2015- Rock in Rio in Portugal or wherever Tour South America in 6 dates
October 2015- Powerhouse performance BMI awards attendance and win Also come back to do another leg of the N.America Tour (big 10 arenas) Another leg of Europe (02 and the big 5 arenas/stadiums) or work on her 3rd movie comedy
End Tour in Late October Averaging out around 750k-1M a show I want her to gross 75-100M (for 90+ shows) and be the highest grossing female rapper on tour...she probably already is but I think she can book Arena tours in the US and WW now and make this happen. Do video for final closer 6th single (something that will end the era perfectly...)
November 2015-release 5th single (Urban song), Attend AMAs/Perform/Win. Attend EMAs Perform and Win. Release 6th closer video
December 2015-NYE’s party. 3 urban features and 2 pop features

February 2016- Attend/Perform/nominated biggest impact song and/or last single and WIN at grammy’s Potential Nominations for: -Rap album -Rap song -Rap sung/ collab -Rap solo performance -Rap performance -Rap performance duo March 2016: #1 hottest MC in the game on MTV's rap fix May 2016: Top 3 Forbes Celebrity 100 and she might still make the cover.
End Era: Now that it won't be released in the first half of the year with year end sales I'll move it up to 2.0M+ US and 3-5M WW albums + 12M+ singles WW +10M feature singles (I only want her to do a handful)...100M+ net worth. Ima need close to 70m before 3rd era. Then by 4th album era she should get 100m records sold. Schoolin' the lessers on how to do this
Start up new 4th era November 2016 with September/October single so that gives a smooth 6-9 months off the radio and of course she will be working on the album here and there no rush with songs and beats cleared towards late 2015.

My prediction for this era in 50 words or less:
- Nicki will come hard and bring her most fire raps. - Nicki will ditch the wigs. - Nicki will re-gain her street cred completely. - The rest is silly speculation. #BOOM

Straight up cricket chirps and tumbleweeds in this thread. The single art wasn't even posted when it was released. How dreadful. All the attention is elsewhere in the second half of the alphabet.

Because the single isn't very good. I'm continually baffled by this girl. She puts out great shit everywhere else but the record.

I don't see Crickets, there is just alot of other artists who put stuff out before her that I'm focusing on at the moment.
With that said, I agree with what no apologist said in another thread- PNP is def in the realm of "The Re-Up".

I meant to say: Nicki will continue to ditch the wigs. #oop Further proof that even concise and relevant predictions can have minor flaws.

The diversion from owning her mistake with maturity though...growth is a beautiful thing and I'm so glad Nicki really brought that mature introspective, evolving image to her new sound. Hopefully fans will follow suit. So glad that it hit top 10 on itunes even after the messy release

We don't think Nicki would try to pull a "surprise" digital release, do we? There doesn't seem to be a firm time frame in mind or the release, except "before 2015."

We don't think Nicki would try to pull a "surprise" digital release, do we? There doesn't seem to be a firm time frame in mind or the release, except "before 2015." She's definitely thought about the release date but I think that she wants to time it perfectly for a few reasons. In her recent interviews, she keeps saying 2014 almost as if it will come out towards the end and not in the summer. She also stated that she's 90% which is odd because she was already billing it a classic album despite not being complete and photographed in April with a rep from label which indicated her submitting material. Perhaps they loved it and wanted a few more tracks. Some radio djs have already heard a few tracks as well. Also, with Kendrick Lamar coming out in September, Wayne coming out probably by the end of the summer and Kanye possibly coming out soon I think it might be best to release the album in October...after the grammy cutoff. Strategically, she can just submit two singles for 2014 grammy cutoff but worry about her album and subsequent singles for 2015 with less competition. She can release her summer single and then put out a new single late August to coincide with the VMAs and an October album. However, she needs to release prior to Hurricane Adele (alleged October/November release) and Tornado Taylor (with her late October releases). I'm either going with October 13,2014 or her Birthday which would be too far away but still (December 8, 2014). As a Nicki stan, when she indicates that she isn't complete with something then that means it's going to take some time. Heck, when she says its done I expect a push back because well...that's Nicki ;)

It's probably not dropping til November. She needs the guaranteed sales of a major release period like the Black Friday weekend. She will have another meltdown on social media if she were to drop this summer and feel like she's flopping again. "Pills N Potions" is certainly not gonna sell an album, and she will probably have a more urban single out in about a month or so.
