Nicki Minaj - Pink Friday

like if any male rapper had done a non-R&Bish song on that beat people would be putting it on year end lists no doubt

it would still be close to mine but as i've said before (i think in TSJ comments actually) the song is just structured really weird, it kinda falls off a cliff after drake's verse (btw BY FAR his best verse ever)

yeah it's totally a high point for drake and nicki's kinda dead weight by comparison

okay i'm just saying:

i was driving across the Bay Bridge in early July, on my way to meet my man-friend who was making me dinner, and "Super Bass" came on, and so of course I turned it up REALLLY LOUD.

and then i involuntarily started crying. the production is soooo cheesy and beautiful that it actually made me weep.

sue me.

my <3 is going to explode

lol @ nicki censoring herself for taylor's tween audience

^^best thing ever. we talked about that on the taylor thread.

"super bass" is my single of the year, basically

i just love imagining taylor rapping "HE MIGHT SELL COKE" when she's doing it in her bedroom though

yes on "Super Bass"

however she just released the album's worst song as a single.

the opening of super bass is such a headrush, like the first big dip in a rollercoaster. I do wish nicki would go acapella for a few more bars before the beat kicks in.

lol @ nicki's heels being twice as high as taylor's but still getting midget-ized

also I don't think she knows how to dance or maybe it's the heels

yeahh i figured it had been on ilx before but it seemed apposite and it didn't seem to be in this thread

similarly, this picture:

Hilarious. Also, Sophia and Rosie are the most British children ever. Sounded like Lady Sov! Heh.

<3 <3

finally, someone with a proper british accent does nicki minaj

I keep telling myself I'll eventually listen to this album.

just skip to the bonus tracks.

throw some shade if you look good

lol @ the idea of rev losing sleep because he still hasn't listened to pink friday

lol @ ass ass ass ass ass ass ass ass ass ass ass ass ass ass ass ass

awful song, great and hilarious nicki minaj verse

bad bitches i'm your leader
venom by the metre
somebody point me to the best ass eater

agh I just had that ASS bit open in two separate windows

^do not take out of context

every time i hear that song i get mad that big sean got a beat that good

is it even that good? he definitely kills whatever energy it might've had, & it really picks up during her verse, but idk it seems dumb

the sped up hammer sample is pretty dope imo

lol @ the idea of rev losing sleep because he still hasn't listened to pink friday

Naw, not at all, just idly thinking to myself I should every once in a while.

I mean, if I really did care that strongly, I would have by now.

Seriously rev all u need to hear are the following:

Super Bass
Muny
Blow Ya Mind
Catch Me
Wave Ya Hand
Roman's Revenge
Did It On Em

pink friday's highs - that tracks tim listed basically, maybe throw "i'm the best" in there too cuz it seems important - are really, really high

the big sean song continues the tradition of nicki shining on otherwise awful songs but tbh i can see the whole ASS ASS ASS ASS ASS ASS ASS stuff becoming enjoyable in a "my humps" kind of way

i didn't even know that's what the song was originally called until today because the radio edit just goes DANCE DANCE DANCE DANCE

what's kinda annoying is that waikiki isn't an island but i'm used to nicki getting her facts wrong by now

he definitely kills whatever energy it might've had, & it really picks up during her verse

the nicki verse is obv the highlight but i dunno if the big sean verses kill the song. after a couple listens (i'm real down with this song) i just skipped straight to the nicki verse and it didn't have quite the same punch. i don't really know big sean (first impressions: he seems annoyingly lethargic in the tradition of other G.O.O.D. princes and pushas) but i don't really mind his performance here. it's not great but it certainly doesn't kill the song.

re: ASS ASS ASS ASS ASS - i'm just happy someone took dj assault to the mainstream.

does any other rapper lean on the stutter-effect as much as nick does

bassline to @$$ sounds like gucci mane - candy lady

unless the candy lady beat is sampling some other famous well known beat

can't believe eminem didn't already do the 'anus/famous' rhyme yet

hearing the word "anus" was pretty shocking 2 me, even after the ass eater line

lol I didn't even get to Nikki's verse because the leaden ASS ASS ASS ASS part made me turn the song off

chris brown would also like to be pointed to the best ass eater

can't believe eminem didn't already do the 'anus/famous' rhyme yet

ke$ha did, actually

good try but you're not gonna get me to google 'ke$ha famous anus'

the world does not need any more Ke$ha goatse

figures, smh

nelly did it on the keri hilson album last year as well, managing to wreck one of that album's strongest tracks in a single line

i don't eve think nicki gets away with it here. pop stars shouldn't say the word "anus". NO ONE should say that word "anus"

*even
*the

look what that word is doing to my typing

what you're saying, is there's no onus to say anus for anyone
