Rock & Roll Hall of Game Posted May 5, 2013 Share Posted May 5, 2013 Random cutoff points in time make no difference. Mariah could get bubbling under singles for the rest of her career and she'll always remain a legend ~ anything else at this point is a bonus. Whether or not Nicki gets there one day became remains to be seen... Exactly, just like the fun and witty UOMF was one song. And "We Belong Together" spent 14 weeks at #1. (I can randomly pick songs out of the bag too ) Time makes a difference too opinionated.. stick to the facts: no one liked it and as a result... it flop Random hit in her mass of hits... Too bad it wasn't her second solo single... You could have said LOVE TAKES TIME and I woulda shut up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rock & Roll Hall of Game Posted May 5, 2013 Share Posted May 5, 2013 You don't see Kanye? She was on last years list nd 2010. Her music took a sharp decline. 1.8 >> .800k... yet outselling 90% of that list.. i mean c'mon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Escapade Posted May 5, 2013 Share Posted May 5, 2013 1.8 >> .800k... yet outselling 90% of that list.. i mean c'mon What did the Re-Up do again? Nicki did all that promo (The E! reality show, etc) and still sold 36,000. Her last three singles didn't even chart. She's been mainstream for three years and she's already declining. Even Kim lasted longer than that. Just accept the fact that Nicki is digging a hole for herself and ppl are annoyed by her antics and over the top ego.

Escapade Posted May 5, 2013 Share Posted May 5, 2013 What 30 year old dresses like this? She wonders why no one takes her serious. There's a thin line between being fashion forward vs looking like a damn fool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jarrylf Posted May 5, 2013 Author Share Posted May 5, 2013 guess you haven't seen Mariah's fashion in her 30's dressing like a teenage girl. Um but she's more known for wearing the gowns. And when she does dress skimpy it's really no worse or tasteless than when most of her peers do it, when she has the body for it she flaunts it and nothings wrong with that. Plus still dressing like a teenager is better than dressing like a 4 year old... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jarrylf Posted May 5, 2013 Author Share Posted May 5, 2013 Gaga is almost 30 herself and look how she dresses. What's that gotta do with her talent? But Gaga's fashion is still more mature than Nicki and it actually means or is about something besides just shock value...which is all Nicki goes for.

TwistedElegance™ Posted May 5, 2013 Share Posted May 5, 2013 Authenticity was questioned along with talent. That's the problem I have with Nicki Minaj dressing like a bowl of Froot Loops. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jarrylf Posted May 5, 2013 Author Share Posted May 5, 2013 a meat dress is not mature sorry but its not no matter what it means It's a bold political statement...which involved thought and had meaning thus a mature thing to do.

TwistedElegance™ Posted May 5, 2013 Share Posted May 5, 2013 I don't know if the meat dress was all that political but it was very Lady Gaga. She dressed to turn heads from day one. Nicki Minaj went from dressing like a rap vixen to a damn mascot in the space of twelve months. And had the nerve to say she doesn't understand the comparisons to Gaga, even after showing up to the Grammys with the freaking Pope on her arm.

And had the nerve to say she doesn't understand the comparisons to Gaga, even after showing up to the Grammys with the freaking Pope on her arm. Surprisingly it actually was heres the statement about it " Gaga tried to explain that the dress was a political statement. Discussing how she'd been escorted to the Nokia Theater in Los Angeles by members of the U.S. military who had been discharged from the service due to the Don't Ask, Don't Tell policy, Lady Gaga said: "It is a devastation to me that I know my fans who are gay ... feel like they have governmental oppression on them. That's actually why I wore the meat tonight." Yea she's a bit stupid for bitching about that and the Lil Kim 1's. I ain't a Nicki fan but plenty of other artist dress childish and stupid and still it has nothing to do with their talent. I'm not here for people saying Nicki ain't talented when she is Again, I'll give her a point for speed but Im not here for acting like she's great, when in reality if she were competting against the legitimate (& much more talented) female rappers of the past she'd get little to no notice. I cannot, and will not give respect to her for being the only 1 in her field in that position, it aint happenin... I will say that without her gimmicks and stupid pointless multiple personalities, what talent she does have wouldn't be hard to find. Again Gaga, her talent overshadows her gimmicks.....not Nicki.

Mariah did embarrass her with that "hot 100" comment and you know Nicki wasn't gon let that ride lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Again Gaga, her talent overshadows her gimmicks.....not Nicki. speed don't mean nothing to me. Lil Kim don't have speed but she's the Queen and will always be better than Nicki but Nicki is talented other than speed. Like I said y'all just trying to look at her recent stuff. She got alot of good rap verses on her music and other's who she was a feature on before and after she blew up. She has done something no other female "Rap" artist has done and that's become an international superstar who has been idolized worldwide. Take this clip. No other female rapper has had impact like this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f9573kGBtuE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
