The Starships hitmaker, who released Pills N Potions today – taken from her latest album The Pink Print – says she experienced a lot of different feelings in the studio.
She said: “It sounds like urgency, it sounds like betrayal, it sounds like running, it sounds like fainting, it sounds like love, it sounds like ahhh.”
“Pills n potions / We’re overdosing / I’m angry, but I still love you,” she sings.
“It feels very uplifting and it feels very soulful. It’s a great indicator of what The Pink Print will feel like in terms of the storyline of that song.
“The Pink Print will remind people why they fell in love with Nicki Minaj and I think that needs to be done.”
The singer and actress is “very excited” about the new record and claims she turned down a lot of features this year because she wanted to focus on her solo material.
Well, we think the song is sexy.
The 31-year-old superstar, who was born in Trinidad, has also promised fans she’s going back to her hip-hop roots with her new album, the follow-up to 2012’s successful Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded.
She added to radio station Power 106: “I think I kind of start from scratch, almost re-introduce myself again.
“I know people know me. I wanted to remind them of where I came from.”
Will there be cameos on the new album? At this point, Nicki has been featured on tracks with everyone from Nas to Kanye West and Justin Bieber, so there’s no limit when it comes to the collaborations she can nab.
To be honest, we don’t really know what to expect. While her last album leaned far into the dance/pop genres, her recent work has been anything but that.
These days, she’s going for straight sex appeal, and if a recent Instagram post is any indication of what’s coming next, we are in for bum shaking, skimpy skirts and boobs in your face all day.
