American Hip-Hop mogul and legendary emcee Nicki Minaj, Onika Tanya Maraj, has finally released her 5th studio album “Pink Friday 2”. The star-studded album, which is her first full-length project in five years and serves as the sequel to historic debut LP “Pink Friday”, features guest appearances by numerous rap royalties including frequent collaborators Drake, Lil Wayne and Future.
Besides the Young Money affiliates and ATL’s rap icon, Minaj has further recruited “First Person Shooter” rapper J. Cole, Lil Uzi Vert, Skillibeng & Skeng, Tate Kobang, Tasha Cobbs Leonard and Lourdiz.
Reportedly, Minaj’s LP features 22 massive rap records. Besides featuring the album’s lead singles “Super Freaky Girls”, “Red Ruby Da Sleeze” & the recently released “Last Time I Saw You”, “Pink Friday 2” is home to provocative song titles including “Are You Gone Already”, “Barbie Dangerous”, “Needle”, “Cowgirl”, “Nicki Hendrix” and J. Cole assisted “Let Me Calm Down”.
Earlier this morning, Minaj revealed the exclusive “Pink Friday 2” tracklist with her fans via Meta. You can check that out and the LP artwork below.
Minaj’s “Pink Friday 2” LP does not feature a guest verse by breakthrough rapper Ice Spice. The rappers, who recently linked up on the star-studded “Barbie: The Album”, stirred major collaboration rumours on Minaj’s latest album after she featured on “Princess Diana Remix”.
Whether Minaj is gearing up for a deluxe version of her historic comeback album and perhaps reserved a guest verse by The Bronx rapper for that extended cut remains to be seen.
In September, Minaj performed “Last Time I Saw You” from “Pink Friday 2” at the MTV Video Music Awards. Watch her flagrant performance here if you haven’t yet.
Besides Ice Spice, Minaj’s collaboration with Lil Uzi Vert arrives after the legendary emcee linked up with Vert on “Endless Fashion” earlier this year.
