    4 years waiting and they were worth it. The best rap album of this year. Everybody thought she was dead, but she kicked the door and shooted 19 bullets in everyone in the f*cking room. Still the queen of rap.

    Queen by Nicki Minaj is exactly what a female rapper needed to do. This album is so complet in lyricism, flow, it' so smart! Is a versatile album where she rescues herself from the old to the new Nicki in the best way and the most important it's not a boring album.

Queen is iconic and unforgettable

    Queen has to be Nicki’s best album thus far. She seamlessly mixed hip hop, r&b and pop into an infectious and revealing album. That left listeners wanting more

    The worst album of the year. Barbz waiting two years for this garbage... Nicki Minaj doesn't respect her fans. This album has only 3 good songs - Coco Chanel, Chun-Li and Barbie Dreams, that's all. All another songs just like a piece of s***.

    Most rappers NEVER top their debut album. Today? I believe Ms. Minaj has outdone ALL of her albums. Sonically, Lyrically, creatively? There isn't an album that has been released in the last few YEARS that can compare/surpass. Nicki's reign as the queen of rap and hip hop is timeless and like none other.

    On Queen, Nicki spends a lot of time ordering beheadings--which are fun, but get old quick--rather than showing us why she is and should be queen. Here's to hoping the next album gives us a more earnest, more raw glimpse of the head that wears the crown.

    When Minaj leans into her untouchable strengths as a rapper, things get really exciting and an album of tracks as strong as "LLC" or "Barbie Dreams" would be one for the books. As it stands, however, Queen is another chapter of Minaj's good but largely meandering and inconsistent full-length album output.

    Queen's title implies it's meant to function as a coronation for one of the biggest rappers ever, but it's more the sound of Minaj fighting to keep that crown on her head.
