Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded is the second studio album by hip hop artist Nicki Minaj. It was released on April 3, 2012 in standard and deluxe editions through Universal Republic Records (Universal Music Group), Young Money Entertainment, and Cash Money Records.[2] Nicki worked on the album with a variety of producers such as Hit-Boy, Dr. Luke, Ester Dean, Rico Beats,[3] RedOne and Oak. Minaj also worked with several artists including Cam’ron, Rick Ross, 2 Chainz, Lil Wayne, Nas, Drake, Young Jeezy, Chris Brown, Bobby V, and Beenie Man. She confirmed through her Twitter account that she will embark on a tour in May 2012, starting in Australia.[4][5]
The album's lead pop single, "Starships", premiered during On Air with Ryan Seacrest on February 14, 2012 and was released to iTunes on the same day. It debuted at number 9 on the Billboard Hot 100 and peaked at number 5, marking her second solo arrival in the Top 10 of the chart, after "Super Bass". The album's second single, "Right by My Side" featuring Chris Brown impacted US Rhythmic and Urban radio on March 27, 2012.
Background
The album puts focus on the return of Roman Zolanski, one of Minaj's alter egos that was first featured on her 2010 debut album, Pink Friday. Cash Money co-CEO, Brian "Birdman" Williams announced to Billboard that Minaj was aiming for a first quarter release in 2012.[6] In November 2011, Minaj announced on Twitter that the album would be released on February 14, 2012, but later in January 2012 she pushed the album to April 3, 2012.
On March 1, 2012, Minaj revealed the album artwork for through Twitter.[7] The deluxe album artwork was released on March 8, 2012.[8] The deluxe album includes three bonus tracks and a T-shirt of the artwork.[9]
When Minaj was then asked to describe the album in one word, she responded, "FREEDOM."[10] In an interview following the premiere, Minaj told Seacrest, "I've never had this much fun recording music in my life. My first album I was very guarded. I felt like I was making music to please everyone else. I had to be politically correct, but this album I am just creating music, and it there's such a big difference. Literally in the studio we were cracking up laughing, having fun, and enjoying ourselves. The music itself your going to get every side that I've ever shown and then a little bit extra. I've tried to make it very, very balanced, because I don't ever want to be boxed in, and that's always what drives me. So I made a very diverse album." She added that with her first album, she "was a too open Nicki Minaj. It felt more to me like a diary, the songs were more introspective and stuff like that...with this particular album I felt that it was time to give people a moment to enjoy the lyrics, and enjoy the beats, and enjoy the voices. When I was going to do my first album people would say, 'What is she going to talk about? Is she just going to talk about sex?' So I made it my business to make an album that did not talk about sex at all. I made it my business to make an album that wasn't a vulgur album, because [on] my mix tapes I was very, very...outlandish on my mix tapes. With this album I'm going back to not necessarily to that sound, but that feeling. The feeling of 'I don't care what you think!' That's what it is."[11] Minaj confirmed that the album will include 22 tracks.[12] Minaj told MTV that "April 3 is gonna be a doozy. It's gonna be crazy, it's gonna be important for hip-hop and pop culture. It's gonna be very big."[13]
Singles
The album's official lead single is "Starships". Ryan Seacrest premiered the single on February 14, 2012 on his radio show. It was released to the iTunes store on the same day.[14] "Starships" officially impacted US Top 40/Mainstream and Rhythmic radio on February 21, 2012. It debuted at number 9 on the Billboard Hot 100, and peaked at number 5, marking her second solo arrival in the Top 10 of the chart, after "Super Bass". Minaj became the highest charting female rapper in the UK with the single reaching number 3 on the UK Singles chart. "Starships" also managed to reach the Top 10 in several other countries worldwide.[15] As of March 28, 2012 the song is certified Platinum in the United States. Filming of the "Starships" music video began on March 13, 2012 and ended on March 15, 2012.[16][17] The second single is "Right by My Side" featuring Chris Brown.[18] It officially impacted US Rhythmic and Urban radio on March 27, 2012.[19][20]
Promotional singles
Minaj released the first promo single "Roman in Moscow" on December 2, 2011, however, it is not included on the album's official tracklisting. It debuted at number 64 on the Billboard Hot 100.[21] Minaj initially said that the single "is like a teaser to Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded, when I say it's a teaser, it's like a trailer to the movie, it's like setting the stage and I just wanted to touch the surface. It's the wackest thing on Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded". She elaborated on the lyrics of the song: "Well, [Roman] was there [in Moscow] secretly because [his mother] Martha wanted him to go there, so they put him in this thing with monks and nuns; they were trying to rehabilitate him, but I can't tell exactly what happened, you'll just see it in the video format, but let's just say he got out of there."[22] The music video was filmed on December 18, 2011.[23][24] The second promotional single is "Stupid Hoe", an electro hop, and happycore[25] song, released to iTunes on December 20, 2011 and produced by Diamond Kuts, credited as T. Dunham. It debuted at number 81 on the Billboard Hot 100. Minaj filmed the video for "Stupid Hoe" on December 19 and December 20, 2011. The music video was released January 20, 2012 on Vevo. It attained 4.8 million views within 24 hours of its release, breaking the Vevo record.[26] Following the release of the video, the song jumped to number 59 on the Hot 100.[27] Minaj premiered "Roman Reloaded" featuring Lil Wayne, on February 23, 2012 on radio station Hot97. It was released as a digital download on February 24, 2012 as the third promo single. It debuted at number 70 on the Billboard Hot 100.[28][29] "Beez in the Trap" featuring 2 Chainz got it's premiere at DJ Flex's radio show at Hot97 on March 20, 2012.[30][31] Minaj filmed the video on March 18, 2012.[32][33][34]
Other notable songs
"Turn Me On", a single from David Guetta's album Nothing but the Beat, will appear on the deluxe edition of Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded. It reached number 4 on the Billboard Hot 100. "Va Va Voom" was initially planned to be the lead single, it was scheduled to impact Rhythmic radio on February 7, 2012[35] before being pushed back to February 14, 2012 for both Rhythmic and Top 40/Mainstream radio,[36][37] however, the label scrapped its release at the last minute and decided to go with "Starships" as the lead single instead. Minaj filmed the music video for "Va Va Voom" on December 21, 2011.[38][39] Minaj performed "Roman Holiday" live at the 54th annual Grammy Awards Ceremony on February 12, 2012. The performance, choreographed by former Lady Gaga choreographer Laurie Ann Gibson, was much discussed and highly controversial.

Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded received generally mixed reviews from music critics.[40][41] At Metacritic, which assigns a normalized rating out of 100 to reviews from mainstream critics, the album received an average score of 57, based on 16 reviews, which indicates "generally mixed reviews".[40] Although he complimented its first-half as "an amusement park for production lovers", Allmusic editor David Jeffries criticized the album's "iffy pop" and called it "a frustrating mix of significant and skippable."[42] Adam Fleischer of XXL wrote that the album is "a quasi-concept album revolving around Roman, without ever fully fleshing out the character; it’s also part rap album, part pop album without finding a way to seamlessly balance the two pursuits."[43] Randall Roberts of the Los Angeles Times commended its "minimal, bouncy hip-hop tracks" for highlighting Minaj's "charm and achievement", but wrote that the album "drives off a cliff" with "dance pop songs as simple as they are generic", and ultimately called it "a disjointed, artistically confused release".[44]
Billboard commented that "Minaj spends more time exploring her musical identity on 'Roman Reloaded' than she does perfecting one, which makes the album sound bloated and rushed."[45] David Amidon of PopMatters accused Minaj of "doubling down on her cartoonish elements" and criticized its first half as "very poorly thought out rap music masquerading as pop".[46] John Calvert of The Quietus described the album as "pop postmodernity in an advanced state of hollow, banal meaningless" and panned its stretch of "conservative, cheering, melodically powerful pop songs" as having "absolutely nothing to do with Minaj's art".[47] Slant Magazine's Matthew Cole panned it as a "mediocre rap album" and wrote of Minaj's performance, "When she isn't rapping, Minaj conveys no personality".[48]
However, BBC Music's Al Fox commended the album's direction and wrote that it "unfolds an immeasurable amalgam of genres and inspirations, all fused together in a diamond-encrusted bubble of futuristic, day-glo hip hop. The energy is palpable, the pace rarely lets up, and personality pervades throughout."[49] Tom Ewing of The Guardian complimented its "half-dozen tracks of blistering, filthy, idea-jammed hip-hop" and wrote in conclusion, "the record is too long, horribly inconsistent, and makes no attempt to marry its rap and pop impulses. But that doesn't matter – at their best the styles are wedded anyway by a particular frenzy, a sense that Minaj comes with no off switch or lower gear."[50] Kyle Anderson of Entertainment Weekly praised its "vivid prog-rap bangers", but viewed that too many tracks "leave Minaj simply treading the territory of other radio divas."[51] Genevieve Koski of The A.V. Club called the album "an intermittently great, but ultimately scattershot effort that’s undermined by its efforts to please everyone", writing that after its "Minaj-as-Roman" tracks, the album "suddenly transforms into pure, unfiltered Euro club-pop."[52]
Tour
In March 2012, Minaj announced the Roman Reloaded Tour, which will kick off June 2012.
