Nicki really gave all her emotions on Pinkprint and 90% of the world didn't care and ignored it. Then, in 2017 & 18, blogs had the nerve to say Nicki doesn't ever make emotional/mature music. Hence why Nicki went off on that blogger, Wanna, cause that particular woman has been talking down on Nicki for years before Nicki went in on her. Pinkprint was a whole mature, emotional project that got slept on.
@@tyresemontell2882 Well, its not Nicki's fault people don't listen to the full album. Every album had its emotional & mature songs, but people only paid attention to the mainstream singles, like Super Bass, Starships, Anaconda, Barbie Dreams, Chun-Li, etc. Nobody paid attention to Pills N Potions, Save Me, The Crying Game, Catch Me, I Lied, Autobiography, Fire Burns, All Things Go, Buy A Heart, Grand Piano, Regret In Your Tears, Bed Of Lies, Champion, Fly, Freedom, Here I Am, Right Thru Me, Still I Rise, Sweetest Girl, Marilyn Monroe, Your Love, Encore, Can Anybody Hear Me, Run & Hide, Nip Tuck, Come See About Me & The Night Is Still Young from Pink Friday, Roman Reloaded, Pinkprint & Queen. Each album had a plethora of mature content that got slept on.
She could try introducing her deep and mature lyrics into her features. All she raps about in those is the size of her posterior, her being the queen, her copious vaginal fluids, etc.
I don’t think enough people understand how much abuse Onika has been through during her life, as a child she had to endure abuse from her parents (her father attempting to murder her mother by burning their family house down) and even in the relationships she’s had there has been elements of abuse from safaree&meek etc.. yet she still remains a strong woman despite everything she has and continues to go through.
Man it’s so crazy how powerful Nicki is. She’s been blackballed in the industry, she’s had labels get people against her, people wanted her dethroned (still didn’t happen lmao) and she’s STILL on top. She’s currently on hiatus yet everyone has her name in their mouth, so just imagine when she comes back with new music
Rebecca Labelle yeah but since those aren’t HER songs, she probably doesn’t decide when they get released. And let’s be real, there’s probably dozens of features unreleased at any given moment, who knows how long ago they were recorded

@MagicHDYT it was supposed to win a Grammy- and Nicki isn't talented? CHILE. the only reason Cardi has a Grammy is because of spite of Nicki change my mind.
girl... basically this album is about safaree and their abusive relationship. you really gotta know nicki to fully appreciate these lyrics bc she explained so much to us
butter fingers how tf😐 she explained to us on this whole album she talked about how abusive was her relationship with him in a lot of interviews, he’s the one who abused, teared her up and made her feel broken
butter fingers safaree threw a whole travel bag at her.. and shit happens behind the scenes. it was just toxic he was abusive to nicki, along with stealing her credit cards to buy prostitutes and cheating on her.
butter fingers you could’ve just sat there and ate your food and stayed quiet but you had to open you big meat suckers to voice out your useless opinion, keep it moving, no women deserves to be put through domestic violence, safaree did worse to her, next time just sit in the corner and stay quiet.
GRAND PIANO. Just give it another listen again. A lot of people thought her live performance of it was fantastic. Just check it out, a lot of singing teachers on youtube reacted to it and were saying how her vocals sounded super good.
Fun fact: „Get On Your Kness” was originally written by Katy Perry (Ariana’s part obviously) but she gave it to Nicki and Ari. Katy is actually singing in the chorus with Ariana.
Imagine how well The Pinkprint would do if it released now? She was always ahead of her time, and back when it released, streaming really wasn’t that big. If it did amazing back in 2014 then it would do flawless in 2020
The album first 3 songs are about her and safaree bad break up, him abusing her and her protecting herself from it. She then talks about her cousin being shot and killed on all things go. She then talks about her little brother and her aborted baby. She says her cousin and the baby is her brother’s guardian angels looking over him. She talks her former pill addiction and how she almost died on the crying games. so this is her most personal project to date
@@matespam108 Listen to her song Autobiography. It explains a lot about her life. She was pregnant at 16 with her then boyfriend, the one who she was seeing around the same time as her now husband, Kenny.
To this day, this album is overlooked and paid dirt. It was a mix of deep hitting vocals and bars. It will forever be the PINKPRINT for all the coming females.
When you wanna discuss an album where she truly got robbed from her GRAMMY!!! This is my favorite Nicki project, she’s so vulnerable and really lets us in on the toxicity of her relationships. I mean the album is revolutionary in her discography. The vocals, production, features I just 😩😩
@@SimonK104 Nicki has always had unfortunate timing. This album went up against 'TPAB' & 'Forest Hill Drive' while 'Pink Friday' had to face 'My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy' and 'Watch the Throne'. I mention those albums because to my understanding, those are albums that received insane critical and fan acclaim and are still highly regarded in the American hip-hop communities and showed up in a lot of the decade end lists that came out. The grammy often get it wrong, but in those years I feel like they got it right. If Nicki ever makes an album of this quality again or really great singles, I'm still hoping she can get the grammys she so rightly deserves.
Fun Fact: Katy Perry originally sung and wrote the chorus on get on your knees! But after the success of bang bang Nicki wanted Ariana in the song instead! But Nicki didn’t just throw her off the track, there was a chance Katy could stay or go. Also she then collaborated on swish swish anyway! Also that’s why Nicki mentions Perry in one of her parts in the song
Katy wrote the song, those are the demo vocals from Katy they just kept lol. Also I'm happy Bey is not on The Crying Game. Legend Ware has the better vocals for auch a track 💯💕
This Album deserved more than what it got. People don't realize she put so much emotion and effort and it's like nobody cares. We call ourselves Barbz but like we don't give the respect that she really needs. It's just sad that people get mad when she shows off her body and everything but when she doesn't it's like everyone sleeps on her like wake up BARBZ. This is her best album and always will be. I LOVE YOU NICKI!!!!!!!!! (even though she isn't going to hear me or see this ;(

I listened to this album in full when I was 16 (I’m 20 turning 21 soon) and it’s my favourite album Nicki has dropped. I then listened to it again when I got dumped at 18 and it changed my whole perspective. Especially grand piano. Being a piano player and getting dumped, it spoke to me differently from when I first listened to it. Amazing piece of work because it shows a sad side as well as a bad b*tch side. Forever my favourite
I love Nicki so much. Imagine the music industry without her and it’s sad that she won’t get the acknowledgement she deserves until she‘s gone. Queen of rap. Periodt.
She is way to talented then other artists and she build the pillar of rap in the female industry but I don't know why the fuc* she haven't got any Grammy ...this is unfair
Me : Watches the whole video waiting for her to react to "Grand Piano" Ajay : *Finally there* "I Don't think I like it as a closer... it's not a song I would listen to again" Me : *heart breaks*
@@javis5728 nah the Grammys are too stupid I swear. Here's the thing. She wanted to perform Starships but they told her to perform Roman Holiday and then turned around and called her performance too controversial. They suck all types of ways
It’s actually really sad to me how people bash her and don’t listen to her music they say she just makes sexual music but thats the stuff that goes mainstream without trying. She lays everything out in her music and if they took the time to listen they would understand why she is the way she is. She’s a product of her environment 100%. Ken also being a childhood love makes it understandable why she forgives him on his past
Tbh a lot of criminals are innocent 😇, but justice system put them in jail because they barely have any evidence to defend themselves. God bless America and Canada 🇨🇦.
Hey ajayll i just Wanted to say thank you. I’m at the hospital right now after a suicide attempt, this is my favourite album of all time and I cried watching this, not because I’m sad, because this is the exactly what I needed to watch right now. You don’t just bring laughs, you bring happiness. God bless you beautiful woman. (I would love to see Tove los queen of the clouds album review or a reaction to her new single “I’m coming” 💓
Totally T its not underrated its what people call a prime for artist and yess the album sold a lot and had huge singles but pf did the same and broke doors nicki just such a legend 😛
It wasn't underrated tho. It has sold 6 million units worldwide and the singles in this album has sold a total of 86 million units. 14 out of 16 of the songs are eligible for gold and higher. Pinkprint is the longest charting female rap album in billboard 200 album chart. The Pinkprint has hits like anaconda which peaked at no.2 on billboard hot 100 and broke RU-vid 24hrs record that was held by Miley Cyrus. Pinkprint is one of the best rap album in previous decade and it's behind Pink Friday and Roman Reloaded as the best selling album by a female rapper. I can go on and on but the thing is, people slept on the lyrics not the album. I know that Pink Friday was more listened to but Pinkprint is not underrated at all.
Mekhi Prinze Harrison i think it has more emotional power then i lied as much as i love i lied and her verse on it grand piano is so much more powerful
the fact Nicki can write and sing like that like what ? How can people even claim they coming close to her talent. “There will never be another one after me”

Marc Her emotional songs are so different for me. You can see another Nicki when you listen it but other sassy Nicki is the best tho. I mean god created her for hip-hop. I can’t deal with her. she’s too good for every song haha
Abil it’s shame because Cardi only won that Grammy because of popularity.. nicki put all her emotions into pink print. Its was raw and we saw nicki in vulnerable state
@@alezvth my friend cardis album is 3X platinum and goes 4X platinum and after 2 years its still on the 200 Billboard (not popularity) and i believe Nickis album deserves Grammy to but the Grammys sometimes is unfair..
She must be running a fever. Voice sounds a bit dry. Probably got the coronavirus and will come back to do a formal apology video and do the press rounds in two weeks. We'll *probably* forgive it... depends on whether she plays us like a grand piano.
Girl, you should have listened to the deluxe version cause "Big Daddy", "Shanghai", and "Wing Again" all great and "Win Again" is a way better closer for the album!
Kevin Ortega-Rojas The dates cross a little bit bc Ariana started recording DW by August of 2014 while TP was recorded from 2013 to 2014 but the album was released on December 2014 so I’m not sure if it has something to do with this. It could’ve been that Ariana simply like the song, just like in Bed, that Nicki just sent Ariana the song and after some time (I dont remember if it was hours or a day) Ariana sent her back the song with a chorus, Ariana just liked the song and that was during sweetener era
