Nicki Minaj is everywhere, except on her own album. But that’s about to change because the breakout star’s debut finally has an official release date.
Young Money’s First Lady will release her as-yet-untitled album during the week of Thanksgiving, known to be the busiest shopping week of the year in the U.S. “Yes. It’s time. November 23rd,” she told her followers on Twitter.
Her single “Your Love” is No. 1 on the Rap Songs chart for the second straight week. She became the first female artist, unaccompanied by another act, to reach No. 1 on the chart since Missy Elliott’s “Work It” spent 12 weeks at No. 1 in November 2002.
A video for “Your Love” was shot in Los Angeles over the Fourth of July weekend. The song, which samples Annie Lennox’s “No More ‘I Love You’s’,” is the follow-up single to “Massive Attack.”
So more than 4 months...once "Your Love" peaks on the hot 100, she should make sure that she release a hot Single after "Your Love" to keep her name out there til the Album drops...
Let's just hope Your Love can continue its reign through July and most of August, then all we'll need is another hot single to last until the album drops. She already has anticipation built up for the album. And on top of that she'll definately have an upper hand cus of the Black Friday sales so I'm sure she has nothing to worry about ... #1 album in her near future.

She needs something up-tempo and hot.
"Massive Attack" was too much for the first single and "Your Love" will most likely be a hit and have longevity, but I doubt it will keep her in the spotlight for 4 months.

I agree. She needs to release something hot before her release if she wants to be competitive.
