Single Review: Nicki Minaj – ‘Pills N Potions’
1 min readHip-Hop superstar Nicki Minaj has unveiled the latest single Pills N Potions from her upcoming new album The Pink Print. The track shows a lot of promise for the upcoming album which will become her third full length.
Pills N Potions is a slow paced R&B tune which incorporates Minaj’s signature flowing raps with a mellow and catchy chorus showing off her talented vocals. The song displays a musical and lyrical maturation for the singer and is only faulted by the somewhat repetitive nature of the chorus as Minaj repeats “I still love” one too many times.
The song runs on a smooth bass beat backed with light piano throughout the track as Nicki sings and raps about taking the high road and learning when being betrayed or taken advantage of rather than getting mad or being brought down by it.
Overall, the song indicates a positive direction for Nicki as she displays maturity and a catchy yet meaningful and optimistic track. This one is sure to be another huge mainstream hit for the 31 year old and likely to be all over the airwaves in no time.
