Yeah, which explains why many rap artists have higher opening album sales than some top notch pop girls.

Since when has every Hip Hop fan lived in "the hood"?

[JayRockafella]

They might not be riding out to starships but they sure are bumping right by my side and beez in the trap onika bringing the hood and pop fans in

[DvnR]

Is Da Slayer the ATRL Ambasaddor of... the hood?


Lord. A damn mess. I can't deal with this messiness so early in the morning.

[RainMan]

why do some black people think that they have to stay true to the hood?


the hood is about poverty, crime, gangs and having no future. Why would Nicki or any other person want to stay with that ****? Im sure Nicki remains unbothered counting her millions out in LA with Lindsay. Lil Kim can stay in the hood.

OMG poor Onicka, dem hood rats dont play.

But i wouldnt blame them, i miss hood barbie nicki. Ex. Bedrock, my chick bad, itty piggy. Leave the pop star act to Britney please!

[EdgeOfAddiction]

Her AI performance was very underwhelming. She hardly even sang any of the melody

I feel like she's turned into a hybrid of GaGa and Rihanna performance wise but not as experienced at performing. That being said, I hope she starts singing more of her songs instead of just the rap cuz I love all her slower songs on PF:RR

[BKzREVENGE]

the hood worships the queen anyway so.

You think Nicki cares?

That's why the "hood" doesn't go anywhere in life. Any change is "fake" to them. See, these "hood" people wanna be "hood" their whole lives, which is why they don't become **** in life.

And please, what don't they think is a sellout? If someone from the "hood" were to move out of the hood, the "hood" would consider them a sellout.

THANK YOU. People grow and move on. Which is exactly why I said that these "hood" people don't go nowhere with their lives.

The "hood" can have Lil Kim. Lil Kim can stay her 18mil worth after "being in the game" for damn near 20 years while Nicki is working towards her 30mil worth only after being in the game for 2 years. See, Nicki is smart, so she's obviously too advanced for the hood anyway. Her brain is too advanced for them.

[Cap10Planet]

Nope. That broad can stay making pop music and appeasing the suburbs.

LOL U think she don't?!? If she didn't she wouldn't have to remind us in almost every song that she is still "Hood" and pop couldn't change her.

I'm all for change and evolving but not when someone is during it just to sell records.

Death at there not being a source, except yourself.

Which goes back to my original statement. NICKI MINAJ FANS always knew that she always wanted to venture outside of rap. If you look at interviews on YouTube from 2008, her interviews with DJ Vlad, and even looking at her interviews when she became mainstream she's always said that she wanted to venture outside of rap.

I mean at the end of the day, it's what people want to believe. People want to believe that she does the music she does now to sell records and there's nothing I can do about that.

But child, the hood is a damn joke. If the "hood" knew that I was in college right now they'd probably consider me a "sell out" for not sticking there. Child please.
