With me, I had no expectations for this album since I don't care for Nicki. But after I listened to it fully, I was pretty impressed excluding a few tracks.

It's getting good reviews from fans and critics.

waiT a minute.
I just finished listening to Win Again (flawless song, tbh.) and in the first verse, she says "Pinkprint can't be delayed".
What if she just said November 24th, but she knew damn well that The Pinkprint was going to be released on December 15th? It makes sense that she went to the studio to fix some lines, but she confirmed on Twitter that the Insta video of her whining her ass was to Win Again, and that was in May.
If she did go back to the studio to fix some lines, then don't you think she would have fixed this line, considering it was supposed to be released November 24th, but it got delayed? Just a thought..

Why would she fix it?
It's a flawless lyric.

As much as I love the slow songs on this album, it wouldn't make sense to release them as singles. I Lied, The Crying Game, and Grand Piano are amazing tracks, but they would flop on radio and iTunes. That's not the type of music radio likes from Nicki (see Bed Of Lies). Nonetheless, they are flaw-free album tracks, and there's nothing wrong with that.
Nicki needs to release singles that have commercial/crossover appeal, yet still have her rapping on them. After listening the entire album a couple of times, the songs that NEED to be singles are GOYK, Feeling Myself, Favorite, and Truffle Butter (if this isn't the summer single, I'll slap the shi*t out of her). Some notable mentions are Trini Dem Girls (This would be a risky single choice, since radio doesn't use dancehall tracks, but it has pop appeal) and TNISY (It has pop appeal, and would easily slay pop radio, but she might get a negative reaction from the Urban crowd, and we all saw what happened in 2012  )
Nonetheless, the only opinions and decisions that matters is Nicki's, so be wise this era, Nicki.

Gun in my purse, bitch, I came dressed to kill
Who wanna go first? I had them pushing daffodils
I'm high as hell, I only took a half a pill
I'm on some dumb ****, by the way, what he say?
He can tell I ain't missing no meals
Come through and **** him in my automobile
Let him eat it with his grills and he tellin' me to chill
And he telling me it's real, that he love my sex appeal
Say he don't like 'em boney, he want something he can grab
So I pulled up in the Jag, and I hit him with the jab like
Dun-d-d-dun-dun-d-d-dun-dun

This won't be on my target edition just the instrumental.
In Onika I trust

I haven't heard too much hate for the album.
It's just clear that this isn't a hip hop classic despite the title that would easily market it that way if the material were up to par. That said THIS IS A nicki classic.\
Real talk I think classics are not planned...they just happen.
Like Reasonable doubt/Illmatic/Hardcore/Miseducations (well I think that was a bit planned), that Wu tang album, The score etc. most of them are game changer and innovative and it was not strategically planned in advance. So, I can see Onika just doing her thing after proving what she needs with TPP and then her 4th being that true hip hop classic...Onika tanya maraj or something.

For some reason, I can hear I Lied on Urban radio. Mike Will didn't lie when he said it would get the girls in their feelings.
But yeah GP & TCG should stay album tracks.

You're spending way too much time in SYG (who'll hate regardless). A lot of people on social media + critics are feeling this album a lot.
