Um, Nicki does care. She is very careful about her image and keeps her ear to the street.
But clock a bit with your last comment.

She more than likely is just telling a story with this album or has plans on delivering excellent visuals this album.
The story is probably just her journey as of late.

See, the visual album thing is like the shiny ball syndrome...at first its like OMG



the marketing scheme of a visual album is different blah blah blah but then you peel backthe layers and the hype dies down and you realize only 40% of the visuals are inspiring and the rest are basic as heck and some mimic peers. Now this is not too much shade to the recent one...it also reminds me of the b'day anthology back when i was a fan. It has 4 solid videos and then these cheap poor videos yet it was marketed as a big to do.
Nicki need not take that route.
She will get her 6 singles and a tour which will provide us with enough visuals.
If anything, for stans, bandwagoners, casual fans, new fans:
a 90 minute DVD or BET special or MTV special
addressing the criticism faced, lessons learned, the reason behind the image shift explaining the purpose of mixtape to features to PF to PFRR to PFRRTRU to TPP and its branding purposes would give people a window into her thinking.
Also, female rap and other nuggets that she can address. There's so much opportunity in a documentary than videos that people can like, dislike, have the concept go over there heads etc.
Then go into this like a documentary of sorts and it can resonate and connect with the audience past the initial hype.
I mean people kept quoting and talking about the re up dvd months and months and months after it debuted.
Videos...once another one or two come out...it's kind of forgotten.
