In response to having her sophomore album, Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded, be branded as “pop,” Nicki Minaj popped off on an unsuspecting reporter. The platinum rapper and social media maven currently on a sabbatical of some sort from Twitter was unamused with an interviewer from The Sun who described her album in less than desirable terms.

Here’s the writer in question on where things went wrong:

I’ve royally upset her by describing her US and UK No1 album Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded as “pop”. So I stutter an explanation: “It was meant as a compliment… I have listened to it…. ”

But the 29-year-old New Yorker ain’t having it. She barks back: “You know what it is, I get tired of people making statements that go to the world and they will read what you write and what you’re saying isn’t true.

“The album is a versatile album with five dance tracks on it. The album has 19 songs and the majority of it is hip-hop. How can you give people a true account if you haven’t listened to it in its entirety?”

And how worse it quickly got:

Aware the clock is ticking, I timidly change tack: “Let’s start again, shall we?”

She snaps: “No! I want you to realise how annoying it is when people come to me having not heard my album in its entirety because, if you had, then you wouldn’t have said that.

“My new album has five dance tracks on it produced by RedOne, who I’m absolutely in love with. Prior to that, it has a very mix tape feel that people need to know about. With people like yourself printing things about the album, it’s really, really misleading to the average person.”

With a last-ditch attempt to try to salvage the situation, I promise: “OK, all that will be in the piece, I assure you.”

And just as I think her third tirade is about to come crashing down on me, Nicki simply turns around and says: “OK.”

And scene.
