I do think that it’s going to create new rules, though, in that. The name of the album was inspired by Jay but not the body of work. I made reference to The Blueprint because Jay is the biggest rapper of our time. He did such a great job of creating this Blueprint brand for male rappers and I wanted to do that female rappers to be able to pattern themselves with what I’ve done one day. He’s always been my favorite rapper, him and Wayne. I think everybody knows how obsessed I am with Jay Z.
Jay-Z is also one of Nicki’s biggest influences, and she told Power 106: Nicki hoped for The Pinkprint to do the same. The name of the album is a direct reference to Jay-Z’s The Blueprint, an album that changed the Hip-hop world, designing a “blueprint” for other rappers to imitate and follow. On this project, Nicki returns back to her Hip-hop roots, dropping the pop and dance-centric sounds that defined her on her previous studio album, 2012’s Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded. Released on December 12, 2014, The Pinkprint is Nicki Minaj’s third studio album.
