Nicki Minaj Shuts Down Album Talk: 'Nothing Next!'
11 Oct
Summary
- Minaj recently dismissed album questions onstage with a laugh.
- She previously hinted at a March 2026 release, then retracted it.
- Fans haven't received new music in three years since 'Pink Friday 2'.
Rapper Nicki Minaj has definitively stated that new album discussions are off the table for now. Appearing at the X Takeover event in Austin, Texas, Minaj responded to fan anticipation about her next studio album with a blunt "Nothing... next question," accompanied by laughter.
This stance follows a year of mixed signals regarding new music. In September 2025, Minaj appeared to announce a release date of March 27, 2026, for her sixth album via a social media post. However, just weeks later in October 2025, she suggested she would no longer release new music, tweeting an apology to her fans. The rapper's last album, 'Pink Friday 2,' was released on December 8, 2023, and debuted at number one on the Billboard 200, marking her third chart-topping album.
