AceShowbiz - Nicki Minaj has changed her mind about releasing a deluxe edition of her latest album. Instead, the "Moment 4 Life" hitmaker decided that she will unleash a new record titled "Pink Friday 3".
On Sunday, September 15, the 41-year-old female hip-hop artist went public with the exciting news. Making use of X, formerly known as Twitter, she spilled that the upcoming record will feature "iconic" songs.
Making a reference to her fans, famously known as Barbz, Nicki announced, " Dear Barbz, IMPORTANT #GagCity ANNOUNCEMENT: Instead of doing a DELUXE to Pink Friday 2, I've decided to do a brand new album. I'll still incorporate new songs like #Mamita & [The 'anxiety' song] for the remainder of the tour tho...and I'll announce the new date within the next couple weeks."
Nicki went on to tease, "The new music is just too good to be thrown away on a deluxe album. Last night, the songs I recorded were just way too iconic. I love you guys so much. You know that. I know you do. I'll still give you something leading up to the announcement, so no worries."
The "Barbie World" raptress, who previously said that she would drop the deluxe album "Pink Friday 2: Gag City Reloaded" on September 13, further assured, "PF3 is about to do PRECISELY wtf BEEN needed to be done. TRUST ME BARBZ. IM SO EXCITED. BLESSED. LOVED (by the Barbz) & fortunately (for the Barbz & me), I've learned A LOT since 12/08/23."
Nicki went on to share, "PF2 means so much to me. As my 1st album as #PapaBear mama, it's just very special to me for so many reasons you guys aren't aware of. I put every song on there in a specific order, etc. So to honor that, I'm going to give it the respect & integrity it deserves as a beautiful body of work & not add anything else to it. 1 or 2 songs is no big deal but 5-7 songs feels a little sloppy right now (In my humble opinion)."
"This era has just been so successful, rewarding, satisfying, etc. after much thought, I want to be for CERTAIN that I am being intentional about every single decision being made around both PF2 AND PF3," she continued. She concluded the message by reminding her devotees that she was about to perform at her show in Birmingham.
