I hope we get SOMETHING tomo.

[Airhead]

Well... exactly 1 month until the album release...

[lancelovesgaga]

Ugh. She said the latest is Tuesday -_-

[Dragana]

I'm starting to wonder if she even knows she's releasing an album in 1 month Because I think the bitch may have forgotten.

[Taylor Swift]

Unless... she lied to us and the first single is actually out on Valentine's Day and she's performing the single at the Grammys!

Haha, I'm so silly.

But seriously, I need some Nicki, best female rapper in history.

[Sorbet]

I've been thinking after that tweet about 'Turn Me On'. Why doesn't she add it on the album? I mean, #4 with no ****ing video, it could be a hit bigger than 'Super Bass', but when she releases her first single of the album + 'Stupid Hoe' and 'Roman In Moscow' videos, the GP wouldn't know what to buy and radio wouldn't know what to play, which means that the songs will take Airplay away from each other.

IMO, she should delay her album. At this point a smashing lead single is all she needs, but she needs to wait until 'Turn Me On' has died on Radio and fell out of the top 25 on iTunes. She can garner everything with a smashing single (or two, since she will be in the lights again if 'Turn Me On' smashes), she can build hype for her album, gain more buyers in the first few weeks etc.

Just some thoughts...

Nicki's label must have so much confidence in this lead single cause the days are flying by quickly lol ......

[TPG14]

I think delaying the lead single or album just because TMO is doing well isn't smart. TMO is Guettas single technically, not Nickis.

But people tend to refer the featuring artist as the main artist on this kinda songs

[Ray Bass]

As much as I hate to say this, I think a delay or pushback might be the best thing for Nicki to do...

I knwo, since she is singing. But it shouldn't stop her from releasing stuff.

[I RUN L.A.]

what does her newest tweet mean?

[Miles.]

I agree with those who want the album delayed. As much as I want more Nicki ASAP, I want her to be successful even more. And that means the album should be delayed, substantially. I'm thinking an April/May release.

Next week she can give us the SH and RIM in Moscow videos to tide us over.
Week after, Turn Me On video.
Va Va Voom premiere at the Grammy's.
Turn Me On should have peaked in March and then she can put her full effort behind Va Va Voom to ensure it smashes.
Va Va Voom peaks in May, album release at the same time.

As much as Romantine's Day would be awesome, I think I can wait a little longer if it means two possible #1 singles between now and the album release

Turn Me On will most definitely help sell the album & she would be waiting forever because I don't see Turn Me On dieing for awhile now. As for stupid hoe & roman in moscow they've never been released to radio but both are still getting spins on urban radio

According to HDD the album is still set to be released on Feb. 14. So, she's still trying to meet the date. You guys are worrying too much. She knows what she's doing, I'm sure of it. Grammys on the 13th. The single will more than likely debut on there or be performed there.

I agree...Turn me on is a David Guetta song and Nicki has not had a problem having 'too' many songs out at the same time where people would not play them all. She had a few hit songs out her last era.

I REALLY Hope she DOES NOT push this album back. With the promo that they should have set up...she'll be fine.

I understand that many ppl don't understand how music has changed because nowadays promo is done a certain way but awhile back artist would release the new song and new album within the same month and the rise of the new song would keep the momentum up. They wouldn't be on the 2nd official single.

I hope she does release Vava voom or whather and at least have a few weeks of airplay and sales.
