Rap-Up.com || Nicki Minaj Readies New Single ‘The Boys’

Nicki Minaj has revealed more details about her upcoming re-release Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded – The Re-Up. The head Barb answered questions from her fans on Twitter, dropping hints about her new music.

Due in November, the repackaged version of her sophomore album Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded will arrive on two CDs and include 5-8 new songs.

The first single, “The Boys,” will drop on Tuesday or Wednesday of this week and features an undisclosed female artist. When asked for a hint, Nicki said, “She’s real pretty.”

She also tweeted a line from the song: “I just come thru w/the SIX like my name was BLOSSOM.”

Lil Wayne has been confirmed as one of the guests on the album. Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded was released in April of this year and spawned the hit singles “Starships,” “Right By My Side,” and “Beez in the Trap.”

@Steve, I’m so sick of this girl. Annoying annoying annoying!! Anything for attention and rap-up reports her EVERY move! 14th minute Nicki, times almost up, that’s why you have to RE-release that horrible album.

@Trina’s Back 9/28/12, “PFRR”: Peaked at #1, charting on it’s 23rd week, 600k+ US sales. Trina’s “Amazin”: Peaked at #13, charted for 5 weeks, the US sales are roughly around 150k. You do the math.

And I love Trina to death but you’re bout to make me point sh*t out that I don’t want to have to and it’s that all of Trina’s album sales together still don’t even equal the sales of Pink Friday so you better quit talking about sales while you’re at it.

@Roman, She wasn’t directly addressed by Obama. He answered a question. He didn’t give her no shoutouts, didn’t say nothing about her wack music, nor invited her to the White House. The attention seeking trick tweeted like the whole world knew she would. She did the entire Romney verse to get a reaction.

@FACTS, Smfh thats less than Half of what she sold lmaoo so sad. Her second album was supposed to be one of her biggest. Roman Reloaded was a sophomore slump. She kept the exact same concept as her first album which is so sad. Real artists keep reinventing themselves. Missy has always been an innovator thats why shes is a legend. The same cant be said about Nicki lol.
