Young Money's Nicki Minaj has announced plans to re-release last spring's Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded sophomore album as a new LP packed with fresh songs this November.
Although details are still coming together, Nicki revealed the project’s revamped title this title.
The repackaged album, “Pink Friday Roman Reloaded: The Re-Up,” will contain new songs, one of which Minaj plans to debut next week. “I’m releasing my album in November. It’s called ‘Pink Friday Roman Reloaded: The Re-Up’ and I’m putting lots of new songs on there,” Minaj told E News! while on the red carpet at last night’s 2012 MTV VMAs (Sept. 6). “I’m actually going to drop my new single next week. So Barbz, you are going to spaz, you are going to love it, you are going to go crazy,” she continued. (The Juice)

Earlier this year, Nicki predicted the LP would move more units than her 2010 Pink Friday debut which has sold over 1.7 million copies.
“H*ll no! This album is gonna sell so much more than Pink Friday,” Minaj told radio host DJ Clue. “Ask me this question two years from today, Clue. With me, I’m never about first week and all that. I like to look at it for the long haul. I’ma travel, I’ma meet my beautiful babies, my Barbz everywhere, and this is my first time I’m gonna get to do a world tour, so the album is gonna do its thing.” (Power 105.1)
