Stream Nicki Minaj's New Album 'Queen' (Bonus Track Added)

The rollout to Nicki Minaj’s fourth studio Queen has not been too smooth, to say the least but as long as the music is good, that is all that matters.

Kendrick Lamar Shakes Up The Super Bowl With Bold Drake Diss And Surprise Guests

Kendrick Lamar's Super Bowl 59 halftime performance was nothing short of legendary, leaving fans buzzing with surprise cameos and bold moments that took his long-running feud with Drake to new heights. Kicking off with an unreleased song snippet and followed by “Squabble Up” from his latest album GNX, Kendrick immediately set the tone for a game-changing performance. Fans eagerly waited to see if Kendrick would play his diss track Not Like Us, especially with Drake's ongoing lawsuit against him and his label for defamation and harassment. Lamar's performance included an unexpected appearance by SZA and a quirky cameo from Serena Williams, along with Samuel L. Jackson’s comedic interruptions, all building the suspense around the Drake drama. In the middle of his performance, Kendrick turned up the heat, looking straight into the camera and directly addressing Drake with his famous lyrics, “I heard you like them young," as fans held their breath. Despite the tension, Kendrick censored himself when it came time to call Drake a "certified lover boy" and avoided saying “pedophile,” which had been widely speculated. Social media lit up with mixed reactions, with some fans mocking the performance as a "mid mashup" and others noting the intense hostility toward Drake. With the hashtag #KendrickBowl trending, it’s clear that Kendrick’s performance was a cultural moment that pushed boundaries—but has he gone too far, or is this just another chapter in hip-hop history? Only time will tell, and Drake has yet to respond.

Last night (Thursday), Nicki went live on Beats 1 radio on Apple Music for her debut Queen radio episode where she invited several celebrity friends into the studio including Kelly Rowland, Cassie, Sevyn, Justine Skye and Lauryn London. The rapper gave away prizes to fans who asked her the best questions on social media and talked about a few songs from the album in brief. There was some confusion about the actual release date of the album and it seemed that Nicki herself was not exactly sure.

After a frustrating call with Republic Records executives and revealing of the official tracklist, it was announced that the album will be out at 12 pm on Friday (Aug. 10th), contrary to the Aug. 17th push back which Nicki informed fans earlier this month.

The wait is over. The album is here in its entirety, featuring guest appearances from Eminem, Lil Wayne, Ariana Grande, The Weeknd, Swae Lee, Future, Labrinth and Foxy Brown. Stream it below and check out the full production credits here.
