    Pure innovation. It's one of those albums that you don't understand the first time you listen. But, with each listen, you get hooked more and more. A delight.

    Con solo la muestra de Nicki presumiendo estar #1 en tendencias con la palabra “Queen” haciendo alusión a su álbum sin deducir el más mínimo razonamiento que la palabra iba referida a la popular banda debido al éxito del filme biográfico y no a ella, queda perfectamente claro como Nicki considera su trabajo superior al de otros.

Pero sin cuidarse de ser modesta en absoluto, Queen ostenta calidad y consistencia, pero es en realidad es un intento muy forzado que falla en satisfacer a su público en general, y que deja en evidencia que Nicki se niega a aceptarlo.

    Minaj trata de probarse a ella misma que es más que las canciones pop decoradas con rimas y beats procesados para un simple rendimiento comercial que acostumbra a “cantar”. Queen trata de reclamar su legado restante para no quedar en el cementerio de artistas pop clichés. Si bien su transición de las rimas bubble gum al rap duro y áspero fue un movimiento demasiado calculado y quizás un poco aletargado, Nicki necesitaba volver a enamorar a sus oyentes. Pero el producto entregado es solo un esfuerzo demasiado desesperado para no quedarse atrás. Come to See about Me, una canción de rompimiento que simplemente termina siendo PIlls And Potions 2.0 y una brusca excusa de escuchar a Nicki cantar algo sentimental, es ligera y suave. Agradable pero solo para su base de fans más dura. Barbie Dreams, una de las pocas composiciones salvables en el álbum, pero que cuestiona la dirección tomada en cuanto a producción. Y resulta tan ambiguo ver tracks como Majesty y Bed dentro del álbum aun estando acompañados de artistas como Eminem y Ariana Grande. Coco Chanel es una especie de cierre del álbum, junto con la sexy y veterana Foxxy Broww, pero termina disgustando a fin de cuentas: “ellas quieren coco, y yo tampoco”. Rapea Ninaj en español sin tener idea de lo que está diciendo. Tampoco ninguno de los que lleguen a escuchar Queen.

    Queen no se cansa de buscar algo de aprobación, lo irónico es que la Chun Li del rap se cuestione a estás alturas si tiene algo que probar.

    Puntaje: 10/100

    Nicki Minaj being a pioneer for female rap is still caring on her legacy as one of the greats Mc’s of all time. Queen brought so much hardcore lyrical content and the cohesiveness of the project was everthing. I’m not giving her a 10 because I’m a fan. I’m giving this protect a 10 because it’s what it deserves.

As a body of work, it is also sidetracked by the pop duds "Bed" and "Come See About Me" which have no place on this album. The outro is also unnecessary and at 19-tracks, this album is way too long and full of fillers. The only fun and good moments of this album include "Good Form" and "Chun-Li" but that's about it.

    All in all, this album is disappointing. It's time to come up with something new, Nicki.

    Lyrically it's redundant. She still saying the same things she's has said in her past songs and features. That Coco Chanel track is the worst. Surely being in the industry for as long as she has she could have better sound quality. That track sounds like it was made in a garage studio.

    The album seems to be misplaced. Nothing about it is memorable except for one song, Barbie Dreams, which Lil Kim was the first female to remake Notorious Big’s version. Therefore, it’s weird to know that she would feel comfortable doing a song with a concept that was already done by another female artist before her.

    Nicki makes me miss Kanye’s seven-song approach. Not even The Weeknd saved “Queen”, it’s a bland, incoherent mess. The album’s highlight “Barbie Dreams”, is a Lil Kim cover with a James Brown sample, which fails to do the originals justice.

    On Queen, Nicki spends a lot of time ordering beheadings--which are fun, but get old quick--rather than showing us why she is and should be queen. Here's to hoping the next album gives us a more earnest, more raw glimpse of the head that wears the crown.

    When Minaj leans into her untouchable strengths as a rapper, things get really exciting and an album of tracks as strong as "LLC" or "Barbie Dreams" would be one for the books. As it stands, however, Queen is another chapter of Minaj's good but largely meandering and inconsistent full-length album output.

    Queen's title implies it's meant to function as a coronation for one of the biggest rappers ever, but it's more the sound of Minaj fighting to keep that crown on her head.
