NICKI MINAJ, Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded—The Re-Up
A reissue of Minaj's seven-month old sophomore album adds eight new tracks. And she's taking shots at Mariah Carey and referencing Idol aplenty: "I'll take it, sign on the dotted line/But I'm quick to the check a b---- if she outta line/Shout out Mike Darnell and Nigel/Why these bums so mad that the queen on Idol, huh?" She also reminds everyone that she made the presidential news circuit—"I did a freestyle and got a shout out from Obama"—on the way to weighing in with not-ready-for-the-White-House fare like "I Endorse These Strippers." How is it? The Los Angeles Times offered a three-star review that likes this "re-up" better than the original, writing, "Minaj is at her best when offering acid-soaked tongue lashings." Will Idol producers and contestants feel the same way?
