That has nothing to do with her being "clownish" tho and everything to do with those being radio-friendly pop songs. She hasn't even released a song like that this era, that is until TNISY.

I would think the commercial music played a much bigger part than her "clownish" looks.

It's kind of annoying when people in general make remarks like this and completely miss the obvious reason.

This isn't even true.

This era is going way better than her last era. Selling more and more hits.

I could care less now this this bitch sells, as long as her music is great.

She doesn't need to return to that clown mess that was the RR era

She didn't lie.

Starships alone is bigger than the entire TPP era.

5 million, "Super Bass"
4.5 million, "Starships"
3.4 million, "Bottoms Up" (Trey Songz feat. Nicki Minaj)
2.7 million, "Dance (A$$)" (Big Sean feat. Nicki Minaj)
2.6 million, "Turn Me On" (David Guetta feat. Nicki Minaj)
2.3 million, "Bang Bang" (Jessie J, Ariana Grande & Nicki Minaj)
2 million, "Moment 4 Life" (feat. Drake)
1.8 million, "My Chick Bad" (Ludacris feat. Nicki Minaj)
1.6 million, "Where Them Girls At" (David Guetta feat. Flo Rida & Nicki Minaj)
1.5 million, "Fly" (feat. Rihanna)
1.4 million, "Make Me Proud" (Drake feat. Nicki Minaj)
1.3 million, "Pound the Alarm"
1.3 million, "Anaconda"

13th biggest with features
7th biggest as lead

She didn't even lie.

I think she sold more because her music was more pop-centered. Nicki used to get dragged so hard when she dressed weird. I feel like people like her more this era.

Those Anaconda sales are outdated. It's close to 1.5M, just saying. And digital single sales have declined, so it's probably her 3rd/4th biggest solo hit. Anaconda being bigger than Moment 4 Life or not is debatable.

Anyways, I disagree with Wendy. TPP is doing fine and the upcoming hits will give her even more longevity. No need to change anything, especially considering this is her best album.

Bang Bang is Nicki post-reinvention.
She has stated on numerous occasions that she is not currently concerned about spawning hits.

Wendy is so messy. How could she think Sam is almost 40? She needs to google things first before spreading lies

well, did she lie?
