April 2, 201213 yr I finally came around to liking 'Starships'. I feel so dirty. Don't, it's amazing! Although I'm slightly over it due to stanning for 'Pound The Alarm' and other tracks on the album. Also, just listened to 'Sex In The Lounge' properly ... Lil Wayne's verse is vile lmao.
April 2, 201213 yr I'm re-rating. It's been pretty much the only thing I've listened to since I downloaded it on Thursday! 08.0 Roman Holiday [Growing like crazy!] 06.5 Come On A Cone 07.0 I Am Your Leader 09.0 Beez In The Trap 08.0 Hov Lane 08.0 Roman Reloaded [i don't like the hate this is receiving!] 07.0 Champion 08.5 Right By My Side 08.0 Sex In The Lounge 11.0 Starships 10.0 Pound The Alarm 09.5 Whip It 09.0 Automatic 08.0 Beautiful Sinner 09.0 Marilyn Monroe 10.0 Young Forever 09.0 Fire Burns 09.0 Gun Shot 07.5 Stupid Hoe 09.0 Va Va Voom 08.5 Masquerade Still just as incredible. 'Beez In the Trap' is so good! It's my favourite of the Roman songs. 'Young Forever' is currently getting the stanning mode style plays from me. Stunning song. I am gutted she has 'Come On A Cone' on here, when she could have easily replaced it with 'Roman In Moscow'. But surely she could have included it over 'Turn Me On'? :(

April 2, 201213 yr I really hope one or both of Marilyn Monroe or Young Forever is/are made single(s), they truly show a totally different side to Nicki - YF is stunning which (much as I ADORE Nicki) I didn't think was something she was capable of! I'd definitely go for Pound The Alarm or Va Va Voom as the next obvious hit, followed by one of the two I said above. Edited April 2, 201213 yr by Liаm
April 2, 201213 yr I'd say she has to go for it like this singles wise; 01 Starships 02 Pound The Alarm 03 Va Va Voom 04 Young Forever 05 Automatic But I'm pretty sure she'll release 'Roman Holiday' as a single at some point and possibly 'Right By Your Side' too ... which I wouldn't mind as such, she just has stronger on the album.

I'd say 'VVV' for the next single followed by 'YF', the first will be massive and the second will definitely help sell the album. ^_^
April 2, 201213 yr 09 Roman Holiday - I LOVE IT! Could do with some of the ab libs she did live though! 08 Come On A Cone - I love the lyrics >> Did it'on Em 07 I Am Your Leader 08 Beez In The Trap 09 Hov Lane 05 Roman Reloaded 07 Champion 06 Right By My Side 08 Sex In The Lounge 09 Starships 07 Pound The Alarm 07 Whip It 10 Automatic 05 Beautiful Sinner 10 Marilyn Monroe 09 Young Forever 08 Fire Burns 07 Gun Shot 04 Stupid Hoe 08 Va Va Voom 07 Masquerade I think I prefer the Hip-Hop side?
April 3, 201213 yr I went into this with quite an apprehensive approach.. and I must say it's absolutely amazing. 19 tracks is rather large, but I think the way in which she's tried to appeal to all her audiences is brilliant. All the songs from Starships to Fire Burns are BRILLIANT, with Pound The Alarm being her best song to date (imo). As for the 'rap' at the beginning, I'm not a huge fan but Roman Holiday is brilliant! For me, this is far superior to Pink Friday!
April 3, 201213 yr YF is stunning which (much as I ADORE Nicki) I didn't think was something she was capable of! Really? I mean each to their own but Pink Friday had so many gorgeous pop songs like that. And most of them are better. I like this album as mindless fun it's a step back and she lacks some serious quality control.

I like this album as mindless fun it's a step back and she lacks some serious quality control. I think I concur with you at this stage. I don't really see any real difference between 'Starships' and 'Pound the Alarm'? Lots of squelchy synth, random noises and aimless lyrics. Is there supposed to be some kind of concept to this record? Half this Roman person then generic pop artist Nicki? As you said, no quality control at all. Far too grandiose.

Hopefully she'll be #1 on Sunday. :wub:
April 3, 201213 yr Author It's crazy just how HUGE she has become. I guess it was obvious she was building up to it, but still! She's basically Katy Perry/Rihanna sized now as an artist. Perhaps not with the huge first week sales but managing to get a numer 1 album (well, at least so far) is pretty impressive!

I think Right By My Side will be her 2nd single. It's already #41 on US iTunes! :o Plus, I'm sure she said somewhere (I think in a radio interview) that she was going to release something urban as the next single. And I don't think releasing all the RedOne and Dr. Luke songs as singles is a good idea, as it doesn't represent the whole album, and it's not going to increase her fanbase, as all the same people that like Starships will like Pound the Alarm, for example.
