with what she displayed there she is clearly capable of producing much more than she is currently offering, but I think she now suffers from the same thing as Jay.
On Monster she was trying to make a name for himself. Now that she is a big name in the industry, the 'trying' part is redundant and now she also phones it in. Ironic, really.
Perhaps I'm just not too much of an optimist, especially since hip-hop as a whole has been lagging pretty badly this year, but I'm not going to put much faith in a Minaj album striking a chord with me.
I really liked CyHi the Prince's verse on So Appalled and it's a shame he didn't have the same coming out party off the back of it. And Rick Ross produces one of my favourite verses of all time on DIAND.
