How do y'all think Nicki will even top TPP era? Like, it hasn't even released yet but it's been her biggest one yet and album-wise, she's pulling all the stops.
I honestly wouldn't mind if she took a break (not too long) and focused on her acting career for a minute.

I find it hilarious that you've downgraded your role to the local troll who comes around only to join in on the drama & kiis & then jet when the laughs are over. Just comical.

Kendrick/TDE and many other artists have called into Power 105 to complain about criticism, and nobody says anything. Jay did the same with Hot 97, and yet he's a boss.
If I don't like what you're saying, I have a right to unfollow you on Twitter. Celebs have that same right, and if they want to block, than they could block.
I find that often times, people want to overcompensate their points just to seem "real" or delusional. Someone like Robby is passionate, and that's so respectable. However, you can't get angry at anyone pointing out your personality flaws (as Justin did), when you're pointing out Nicki's flaws as well.
Sometimes focusing on the positive can just make things better. Dwelling on an issue isn't the way, which is why I don't get mad at things easily. Hell, I wasn't even angry at Nicki for blocking me (meanwhile, there's stans that cuss out their faves after being blocked).
I think everyone should focus on the excitement of the album release, tbh.
Either way, back to work. Hope all is well and I hope I didn't offend anyone, because I can't be bothered to respond.

The first and last time I'll agree with Willy this era.

From a business standpoint it's totally acceptable for Nicki to be upset that a radio personality trashed Anaconda on the week of its release.

I literally have no clue. The only way I can think she can top this era is if this album gives her the most acclaim & praise, that she's ever received.

She should release the fourth album in Nov 2016 tbh. She should focus on TPP & tour during the rest of 2014 and during Q1, 2 & 3 of 2015, then she should film a movie while recording the album, then after she's done filming the movie she should focus only on music material (album & features).

Nah, I'm always around. I'm just extremely selective on when I want to post and what I want to post.
Nicki taught me through her use of twitter this era.

Good question. I'm not too sure how she can top it but I don't think I'm even looking for her to top it. I just want great music. I'm more interested in seeing where her sound will g in terms of will she lean back towards Pop or not.

Let's change the topic a bit.
If the cover is only text + background.....

I wanted a cover with just text & background, but then Bey did it so now I want something else.
I still want something creative, yet simplistic.

I think TPP will be her Magnum Opus. Of course that means that her other albums will be automatically worse than that because of the high bar set by TPP, but that's inevitable. Just like with her Monster verse: she has had so many great verses but people still refer to Monster as her best verse and every other verse is automatically worse, but are they "bad"? No.
I don't think she can/will top TPP, but maybe she has another chance for a classic album for her last album.
I hope I'm clear.

Same. I want something between the simpleness of a text & background cover & the creativeness of a normal cover.
I want something dark with a bit of pink on it. Maybe the text should be pink.

I disagree. If TPP is a very great album, she could focus on quality (not hits) with her albums after that and have a lot of longevity. Idk tho.

I think she's going to do a balance of both on this album.
But on the other hand, I don't want a "classic" rap album from Nicki. I want a great rap album from Nicki. I think that if she does a classic album she'll stray away from "Nicki Minaj", that's why I hope there won't be too many personal songs on TPP, it's not her style tbh.
But she could always serve good songs with quality (LAN, Chi-Raq, NFZ Remix), something that (strangely) she's not been doing with TPP singles so far (PnP, Anaconda). Idk...

I really don't mean to keep breathing life into this topic, but come on sis, trashed? All he said on air was that the song wasn't his taste but that girls and gay men would love it. The nerve, I guess.
I'm certain VOGUE cover is coming. All this fashion stuff lately.
