    The album is just perfect, the combination of Rap/Hip-Hop/R&B/Pop are amazing. Tracks like "All Things Go" & "Pills N Potions" seems the ones most personal (Just to name some few them). Also it has the Worldwide Successful Record "Anaconda". Features like Beyoncé, Drake and Lil Wayne on tracks like "Feeling Myself" and "Truffle Butter" are some of the best collaborations on the Album,The album is just perfect, the combination of Rap/Hip-Hop/R&B/Pop are amazing.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Minaj tries to combine feelings, rhythm, bars and emotion in this album and she did it. She opened her heart in songs like "all things go" and made us dance with songs like "trini dem girls". One of her best albums.… Expand

    Obra prima do rap. Nicki Minaj provando ser a rainha do rap mais uma vez. Feeling myself com a Beyoncé é uma das melhores colaborações da história.

    Una verdadera hoya del rap en general,Nicki se abre y muestra más alla de la su imagen de mujer dura y fuerte en canciones como The crying game o grand piano demostrando que puede ser multifacética.

    Her best album. She really got very vulnerable with this one. There's a lot of meaningful and emotional songs on this one right here.

    The best body of work by Nicki Minaj, her rap roots are here for new topics as sad childhood or past relationsships, sex metaphors and even motivation songs for people with low trust in themselves

    It is actually a masterpiece, a very versatile album by a very versatile artist, but without leaving its rap essence, an album that carries an excellent thread, and where each of his songs provide me with Character and joy.

    She really gave us another classic in 2014. The emotional vulnerability of this album and artistry that she possesses is unmatched. This is literally the pinkprint for female rappers to follow. She is the standard and she is a legend.

    One of Nicki Minaj’s most well-received and sonically flexible bodies of work. With exceptional tracks like Pills N Potions, Anaconda, Grand Piano, Truffle Butter, Shanghai, and All Things Go. This album is the most vulnerable and diverse Minaj has to offer. There is truly a song for everyone.

    This is the best album of Nicki Minaj.

    Starting off with All Things Go, I Lies and The Crying Game, Minaj sets a sad, melancholic theme for the album. The songs are followed by more sensual, self-love songs (Get On Your Knees, Anaconda, Favorite). After a few happy songs, Minaj returns to the sad tone, which she does effortlessly.

    An understandable desire to have her traumas understood by everybody inevitably results in a bland mush of melodrama. Despite this, The Pinkprint is Nicki Minaj’s most successful album by a fairly wide margin, as she becomes more empathetic than at any point in the past while Pink Friday’s DMZ between pop and rap becomes little more than a historical footnote in her career.

    For the most part, though, this seems like a step in the wrong direction: a Nicki Minaj album from somebody who’s thoroughly fed up of being Nicki Minaj.

    The Pinkprint has moments. Some are great, but most are not.
