When describing the vibe of the song, Minaj likened it to a blend of her iconic Pink Friday album and her beloved mixtape Beam Me Up Scotty. Fans can anticipate a sound that captures the essence of her earlier work with a fresh twist. However, she also clarified that this track isn’t part of her Pink Friday 2 (The Hiatus) project, scheduled for release on December 13.

Pink Friday 2 (The Hiatus) is expected to honor the one-year anniversary of the original album and will include fan favorites like “FTCU,” “Red Ruby Da Sleeze,” and “Big Difference.” Minaj has also indicated that this release will serve as the “final deluxe” version, following previous extended editions like Gag City Deluxe and Gag City PLUTO Edition. Fans might see a couple of additional songs, although she’s been careful to keep the tracklist cohesive.
I’d say a mix between Pink Friday & BMUS https://t.co/WvRLBshdAS— Nicki Minaj (@NICKIMINAJ) November 13, 2024
Although specifics are scarce, it’s possible that the previously teased tracks “Mamita” and “Anxiety” could appear on Pink Friday 2 or even her next project. Whether or not they make the final cut, Minaj’s latest music promises to bring fans back to the roots of her unmistakable style.
