July 26, 201212 yr Is the whole song not her or just the chorus? Because the chorus of "Super Bass" isn't Nicki Minaj, yet I'm 100% certain if she ever had a Greatest Hits package, that'd be on it... Were there ever 'originals' for "Jenny from the Block" and "Feelin' So Good"? Because I've searched them both and it says the originals both had featured credits. Anyway, I've removed the other rent-a-rapper songs with the originals and it's not an awful compilation. "I'm Glad" and "Play" are the only glaring omissions, and it feels so wrong having the first four songs by the same artist as the rest of the album. They should've been shoved to the bottom of the tracklisting.
July 26, 201212 yr Then I don't see why there's a problem. It's just like hundreds of male artists who use uncredited female guests to sing the chorus.
July 26, 201212 yr True, it's the same (as Theo said) as Super Bass, the chorus is sung by Ester Dean but it's just 'Nicki Minaj - Super Bass' rather than 'Nicki Minaj ft. Ester Dean - Super Bass'.
July 26, 201212 yr I think the controversy is that it's always been passed off as her vocal. Nicki never claims to sing the chorus on "Super Bass".

July 26, 201212 yr Does J-Lo also claim to sing "I'm Real"'s chorus? Because that's not her yet is on here... Those ARE the originals :P the rappers are there on the album versions. There is a no rap version of JFTB though, its grand. Oh right! Could you possibly send me that then please? Edited July 26, 201212 yr by THEO.
July 26, 201212 yr We can only hope so, Jenny needs to distance herself from the aptly named Murder mixes.
July 29, 201212 yr Wow. This gets into the top 5! :o A number 4 debut for this album. Probably on sales of about 13k but it's still the 4th most bought album this week!
July 30, 201212 yr If I'm not mistaken this ties it with the remix album as her 2nd highest peaking album in the UK, the first being J.Lo at #2.
July 30, 201212 yr Ashanti sings both the Ain't It Funny and I'm Real remixes mostly, with JLo doing a bit of the verses. Really bad actually.
July 31, 201212 yr That is surprising. It only did well because of lack of other good albums this week. Well done J-Lo.
July 31, 201212 yr That is surprising. It only did well because of lack of other good albums this week. Well done J-Lo. Is that fact or opinion?
August 4, 201212 yr A lot of people have said "I'll wait until Sony release one of those budget compilations. That'll have all of them on it", but it's just hit me that any Greatest Hits after this may not feature On the Floor, I'm Into You, Papi & Hypnotico. Either way I'll never get what I want :cry:
August 5, 201212 yr Its down to #14 this week it seems to holding up quite well and not free falling like Joss stone's new album. Hopefully "Goin In" being on uk tv seen could help the album have some form of longevity until her uk tour starts.
