Think about it. I think it'll be the most "childish" song on the album, so why not put it first just to get it out of the way.

I meeeeean...
no thnx. I want an intro.
IMO. there's not really a "right" place to put a track like Anaconda. It's gonna stick out like a sore thumb no matter where. Might as well leave it in the awkward second to last position.

I know this is a really bad comparison but look at how Fergalicious was the opening song on The Dutchess.

Meh. I'm not totally against the idea. I'm just hoping that it fits in with the rest of the album. Hopefully the album is really cohesive and Anaconda fits with the whole "story-telling" aspect of this era.

That's why i said the opening SONG.
There can still/will be an intro.
&
I think Pills will be second to last song on the album.
Idk, it gives me that type of vibe.

There's always the possibility Nicki will have a "ratchet" portion of the album where Anaconda could open for.
I want the album to be cohesive, but that doesn't necessarily mean she can't have subsections. PFRR was just too jarring and rigidly divided. For ex. the jump between SITL and Starships is awkward.

I mean, just look at how she blocked Willy for his initial opinion on the song. I just feel like if you fans aren't blatantly disrespecting you, you shouldn't be blocking and un-following them because they don't like a decision you made. And that's not meany just for her but with artists period.

Yup.

Charla has been going against the grain for the entire year, I should have saw this coming. From the Iggy deserving the award, to the Anaconda shading & his points on Nic this year. I should have foresaw her saying "okay **** our friendship, you aint loyal." Even though he was rocking with her when the Hip Hop community wasn't. When he was down with her when she was at her lowest.
Hell, she knows RR was a hot mess, yet gets upset when anyone else agrees. This is her flaw & as a fan/stan we shouldn't be in denial about it.

But he never said anything, that's the point. The worst things he has said is that Iggy should have won BET award and that he's not a fan of Anaconda (yet admitted it's just not his taste). Twitter Barbz ran with that and made him out to be some sort of "backstabber". Yet, they ignore when he calls Nicki the King of New York, or when he constantly praised every other song she's released this year.
We should stop talking about this, but at the end of the day, I just want Nicki to be back on TBC. I mean, it's the biggest show on the biggest hip-hop station in the world, so not returning is actually her loss.

I just want to know why it's always so heightened when Nicki does things. Rihanna has been unfollowing and or blocking fans for the past few weeks for asking when R8 is coming, and nobody makes a big deal of that.
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.

It is a big deal when rihanna drags and unfollows visit her base when that happens
I wasn't aware of kendrick because I don't care. Naturally im more aware of when nicki does things because i care. I think some people are inclined to feel the same way about their fave

It should be in the second half following an interlude to change the mood.

Hmm. I hope Nic's taste in her own music got ALOT better.
Just so it's safe to say that this album will be AMAZING.
I mean she does hate songs like Your Love, I Get Crazy & Massive Attack, but love songs like Freedom & The Boys.

Team robbyyy I just read the thread. I was looking forward to her joining the breakfast club album day but they are more than fine without her and she can just go to hot 97 I guess.
Lol at people defending this immature behavior though
Mmm mmm mmm. Wait till I get home. I'm gonna go in and expect every nook and crannie.

I don't understand the Freedom & The Boys hate on here.
They're two of her best songs imo.
