Last year, Minaj teased The Pink Print while being interviewed by MTV News . At the time, she said, “In the features, I don’t really delve into no real deep sh–.” And with the album, thank God, I’ve experienced so much in the last year and a half that there is so much for me to talk about and I know my fans are going to be excited about it.”
