The lowdown: In this hip-hop piano ballad, Nicki leaves a message for her former self, reflecting on how she has changed since her underground rap days. Essentially conceding criticism that she's a sellout, she tries (unsuccessfully?) to reconnect with the badass girl she once was. Co-written and produced by Kane Beatz, it is the eleventh track on Pink Friday.
The vote: Firmly mediocre by voters' standards, half of the scores for "Dear Old Nicki" fell into the 5-7 range.
Best moment: "Maybe you died, 'cause everybody ask me where you at"
