    An amazing album through and through, has some of the greatest rap songs of all time as well. I really love this album but this era was very tragic for her because of the media. This was a really disappointing occurrence but still this album ever since release had remained in my top 10 of all time. It only got better with each listen

    Now... when this album first came out, I was sceptical and did not enjoy it, hence giving is a 2 rating. However, five year later and this album has aged like fine wine. Nicki's verses are so clever yet sharp. There is a reason why she has had so much longevity in her career. Nicki we love you lyricism and unapologetic confidence that you give in your songs!

    Álbum perfeito. Muito bem pensado e criativo, pena que o hatetrain acabou mudando a percepção das pessoas, que por fim acabaram não entendo a proposta do álbum.

    Nicki Minaj’s 2018 album Queen shows an evolution in her career and music. The album consists of mostly rap/hiphop.

Whereas her kast releases felt like a collection of songs (albeit it's good songs) but nonetheless didn't feel together but on "Queen " you're taken on an exhilarating journey. From the atmospheric "ganja burns" or the goosebumps giving "majesty " that has Eminem freshest flow in recent memory. It's fun getting to see Nicki have so much fun with her music as she relishes her spot as the queen of rap like on the playful roast on "Barbie dreams" that takes **** at her peers behund a notorious B.I.G sample. Overall it was a long but enjoyable experience that I'd personally recommend to new listeners over her previous work.… Expand

    She's finally realized and understood what it takes to make a great rap album: embracing rap as a genre.

    Nicki's prior albums were a seesaw game of playing with the idea of rapping but keeping her feet in R&B, Pop, Electronic, and other water she wasn't fit to swim in. Water she felt unnatural in.

    Nicki's prior albums were a seesaw game of playing with the idea of rapping but keeping her feet in R&B, Pop, Electronic, and other water she wasn't fit to swim in. Water she felt unnatural in. Queen is unapologetically embracing the roots of rap with hard-hitting beats and boom bap drums, complete with just the right amount of soft singing that Nicki is actually good at (rather than going hard for some pseudo-singer track full of autotune and shaky pitch) and some varied flavor like reggae, which Nicki is very familiar with.

    People will tell you this album is overrated. They'll write it off because it's easy to. Because for a long time Nicki Minaj was a mainstream rapper who was getting by on everything BUT rapping. But, and this is the first time I've ever felt this way, Nicki Minaj has made a great album. One worth listening to. One worth being open-minded with and giving a try. Because right now, this is one of the best rap albums of 2018, and it's probably going to stay that way when the year is over.    … Expand

    e quero começar já dizendo que barbie dreams é um dos carros chefes desse álbum, não tem como, essa musica ela novamente demonstra como ela é superior em tudo, ela brinca a vera. gostaria de deixar aqui gravado minha aprovação por ela falar de zayn em bed. e eu não lembrava que the weeknd tava nesse álbum, sendo que a musica é muito boa - bônus para ele falando you play the victim every time too that **** came back and hit you times two - não entendi porque tinha deletado da minha mente. llc é uma das musicas que eu me apaixonei quando saiu o álbum e sempre que escuto o sentimento é o mesmo - we don't pay dudes to front like they like my **** we don't pay dudes to come in and write my **** uh -
    partes negativas: as musicas são muito grande sem necessidade, tem muito fillers, faz com que algumas musicas sejam esquecíveis, quando você chega no final o álbum você já nem lembra as musica que tavam no meio. então poderia ser um álbum menor, com menos musicas e com as musicas com duração menor.
    fora isso gostei bastante. não quero falar do grammys mas não tem como fugir, até hoje me irrita muito o que foi feito com esse álbum (principalmente quando aquele álbum lá ganhou como best rap album). o nome do álbum é realmente o que ela é. definitivamente top 5 best rappers of all the times. fim.    … Expand

    After 3 years prior to it's releasing, Queen by Nicki Minaj now proves itself as one of her best works.
    The album is about proving herself, assuring her positions, working with bold punchlines, flows and beats that only someone of her position could ever do.
    Minaj showed the world in a exquisite year of her career that nothing or anyone can beat her when it comes to the rap game.

    This is one of my favorite albums by Nicki Minaj. Her lyrical is so amazing on this album. My favorite track is LLC I love this song. Another favorite is Barbie Dreams her bars are so amazing and that transition at the end of the song is fire! My favorite feature on the album is Bed featuring Ariana.

    Even though it sometimes lacks in consistency, it still is a well put together album. If she would've cut it off to around 12-14 tracks it would definitely be a more cohesive body of work

    Nicki Minaj delivers no catchy songs on her recent album, discussing the same topics over and over again. The more she talks about this, the more it gets stale

    Queen and The Pinkprint are her best albums. On this album, Nicki wanted to show that no rapper is touching her: she keeps on switching flows and she is the most versatile rapper of all time. Male or female. PERIOD.

    When it comes to rap, without a doubt, your best work! Nicki arrived with Queen with raps and aggressive beats! One of the best rap works of the decade

    An album full of songs with catchy musical rhythms like "Barbie Dreams" "Chun-Li" and "LLC", a great job.

    The queen of rap hands down! the best rap album I've heard in ages. Nicki Minaj did a really good job at perfecting this album. She never disappoints and always delivers. If i have two words to describe this album, they will be "Truly A Masterpiece".

    Mianj está demostrado ser la Reina del Rap y no le da miedo demostrarlo con sus afiladas rimas y su agresivo álter ego "Chun-Li"

    This album is a hot mess. While maybe there are 3 good songs , the overall experience was lackluster. Many filler songs and doesn’t have a lot of substance. Definitely a step down from her previous albums. Disappointed...

    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.
