Nicki Minaj Announces Album Release Date With Rihanna-like Deja Vu

Nicki Minaj pulled out of touring with Rihanna, but she has no problem copying her marketing scheme.

The wig-loving rapper has announced the release date of her long-awaited still-untitled debut album in a cryptic message on Twitter.

“Yes. It’s time. November 23rd,” she tweeted today (July 8).

Rihanna announced the release date for her now-platinum album Rated R in the same fashion last October. Coincidentally, Nicki and Rihanna’s albums are being released exactly one year apart.

Minaj was supposed to open for Rihanna’s ‘Last Girl On Earth’ summer tour, but dropped herself off of the bill soon after the tour’s announcement, citing her wish to further work on her album as the reason.

Nicki’s album will include her first single “Massive Attack” featuring Sean Garrett, and her Billboard rap chart No. 1 hit “Your Love.”

      i think nicki will do better unlike rihanna nicki actually has talent and writes her own songs =]!! Nicki has also had more fam than Rihanna ever did when she first came out…Sorry but there just #FACTS

      • let me know says:

        i cant go so far to say nicki will do better dhan rihanna…wut ur sayin is mostly opinions and is coming from a nicki fan…rihanna doesn’t write all her songs but she has written most (she wrote her verse on Run this Town which won her two grammys) and if she didnt have talent she wouldnt be on a tour, collecting awards, and have so many top ten hits…Sorry but there just# FACTS

    • Chrissy says:

      Btw as of now Beyonce actually has the most number one singles since 200…due to Telephone being number one..

      • Kerry Johnson says:

        • Chrissy says:

          • Chrissy says:

            • junebug says:

              Rihanna has six… umbrella, sos, disturbia, take a bow, rudeboy, live ya life

              sorry to rain on ur parade

              • Chrissy says:

                actually if you check on wikipedia she has 6 including all the ones you just said Telephone…So her and Rihanna are actually tied…but everyone knows Beyonce’s talent is by far better than Rihanna’s anyway

                • Girlplease says:

                  But didnt you say Beyonce had 7? Make up your damn mind! You do know anybody can add anything to wiki and its not always fact right? Go to billboard and find when and where Telephone was number one on the Hot 100. You cant. It peaked at number three on there!! You fail. Beyonce 5. Rihanna 6. Sorry hater.

      • Girlplease says:

        Telephone was number one on what chart? Not the Hot 100 where the number ones list counts! Rihanna has 6. SOS, Umbrella, Disturbia, Take a Bow, Live Your Life, Rude Boy. Beyonce’s number ones there are Crazy In Love, Baby Boy, Check On It, Single Ladies, Irreplaceable. Only 5.

        • Chrissy says:

          Nope still 6 you can still check wikipedia!!

          • Girlplease says:

            See my reply above. Beyonce 5. Rihanna 6. Telephone peaked at number three on the Hot 100. You fail.

            • Chrissy says:

              doesn’t matter you still fail at life lmaooo

            • Better Than Budda says:

              Well Rihanna MAY have more number ones than B as a solo artist. But if you add B’s number ones from DC then B so owns her. Plus how many Grammys does Ri Ri have? Not more than B as a solo artist or when she was with DC. Or what was Ri Ri’s ranking on the Forbes 100? I know B was at #2 right behind Oprah! So, you’ve been officially OWNED!!

    • yasmind says:

  3. Ariee says:

  4. Terry says:

    Rihanna has six number ones on the hot 100 which is the chart that counts towards an artist’s legacy. Telephone peaked at number 3. It was number 1 on the pop charts which is not the chart of charts. If you counted the pop charts then Rihanna would have more than 6 number ones.

  5. Lana says:

    Rihanna and Nikki cannot compare to beyonce…Im sorry but number 1 hits since 2000? WTF does that prove? I don’t hate Rihanna but the fact that she had more number one hits since 2000 doesn’t make her better.. Im sure beyonce would have more number one hits if she didn’t take time off to make movies and shit.. but I digress..lol

    As for Nikki, she is the same as Rihanna.. they’re ENTERTAINMENT not Talent!…..Which is why they wear their hair crazy and dress like skanks..I don’t hate either of them, their audio-tuned songs are catchy..lol!

      • Girlplease says:

        You’re not very smart, are you? Keyword in all of these articles…POP SONG CHART. Rihanna has the most number one songs on the Hot 100 chart. That is the chart that REALLY matter since it counts ALL genres. She now has SEVEN number ones. SOS, Umbrella, Disturbia, Take a Bow, Live Your Life, Rude Boy, Love The Way You Lie. Please go find a seat and sit in it forever or until you can read and participate in this conversation with your mind off of “idiot”. Rihanna owns. You fail. Bye girl!

        • Chrissy says:
