    Lets keep it real. Her album should have been out. She is waiting for 3 reasons. Let me be clear, I’m not hating, I’m being honest. Her cd isn’t coming until Nov. because they didn’t want everyone to take away from Drake in July or Lil wayne’s new one coming in Sept. That is smart. But the main reasons are because she needs Lil Wayne’s buzz. Wayne gets out in November too. Coincidence? No, not at all. Also, she need Wayne to write better songs for her. Truth? Yes, it is. There is no way she has been out for like almost 2 years and still has to wait to almost 2011 for a full cd. She isn’t that type of rapper. She needs help to sell. I’m sorry, she is weak. The reason why she is just doing a video for thsi song is because this is an OLD OLD song. I think I heard it was like made in 2008. She didn’t have success with her latest single “Massive Attack” so she put out an older rap and prayed it would be good. Because it already was buzzing around on youtube, she lucked up. Come on people. SHe is impersonating a rapper. Once, again, before someone says I’m a hater, I’m not. I support rappers like Drake who I feel actually has words. I love female rappers too. I just think Nicki is the female Soldier Boy. I just don’t get why she is still here. Ok, in fairness she is better than Soldier Boy, but still a gimmick.
