Ever since her reemergence after a lengthy social media hiatus, Nicki Minaj has been as active as ever, sharing details of her upcoming album and providing major announcements for her fans. With her newest single "Bed" dropping this morning, Nicki is ready to have the summer on lockdown, announcing her arrival in August. Of course, she plans to stay on everybody's minds until Queen drops, strategizing the perfect promotional scheme in the meantime. Unveiling the album cover recently, Nicki has yet to let us in on any tracklist details but, with the delivery of the official iTunes pre-order, further information came to light.
The placement of both her Lil Wayne and Ariana Grande assisted singles, "Rich Sex" and "Bed," have been revealed at 4 and 6 respectively in the listing. Unlike the heads at G.O.O.D. Music have been doing, Nicki plans to load her album with as much music as she can, making up for four years without a full-length LP. The rapper has jam-packed Queen with nineteen tracks, almost tripling the quantity of Kanye West's 2018 concoctions. While names of the tracks have not been added to iTunes yet, "Chun-Li" makes an appearance midway through the tracklist. Notably missing, however, is "Barbie Tingz," which seems to have been cut from the album or forgotten altogether.
Pre-order is available now for Nicki Minaj's Queen, which is expected to drop on August 10. As we wait for the entire project to surface, check out her new single with Ariana Grande here.
