According to Nielsen SoundScan, Blue Slide Park has sold 253,000 to date; quite a handsome sum stacked next to the 70,000 sold by his digital-only EP, On And On And Beyond, which was his first charting set.

YMCMB&8217;s Tyga is rumored to be dating stripper / model Black Chyna. Black Chyna has a stricking resemblance to Ms. Minaj in the ce, and her curves are just as awe worthy&8230;so much so, that Chyna was cast as Nicki Minaj&8217;s body double in Kanye West&8217;s &8220;Monster&8221;music video.

Chyna is also one of the most popular strippers at rapper&8217;s paradise, King of Diamonds strip club in Miami, and if her name sounds miliar, it&8217;s because Drake shouted her out in his smash hit&8220;Miss Me&8221;.

&8220;Call up King of Diamonds/ and tell Chyna it be worth the flight.&8221;

Tyga was spotted posting a gang of pictures of him and Chyna on his instagram account from his recent birthday party, where we hear they were attached at the hip. Check out a few of the photos below.

We guess these two have been an item for a while now. Chyna&8217;s the total opposite from Tyga&8217;s last girlfriend, Victoria Secret model Chanel Iman. Either way,nicki minaj Tyga&8217;s a lucky man!

&8220;I ed your life last year this time, remember that?&8221; Nicki asks on her new song, &8220;Roman In Moscow&8221; (in ct, yes, I do remember that). The &8220;spitter &8221; thatDrake predicteddefinitely is in effect here. Even if that wasn&8217;t enough, which it totally is, there&8217;s also the ct that, at this poinnicki minajt, I&8217;m ready to listen to any song that follows the &8220;______ in [location]&8221;song-naming rubric. Click past the jump to stream the track.

This song is weird as . I like this better than her singing over generic David Guetta beats with ty lyrics about how much she wants a man.

she represents contemporary rap in general, interesting, has some bright spots but ultimately disappoints.

This is great! I always wanted to hear what Drake&8217;s ghostwritten verses that couldn&8217;t make the cut for a Wayne album sounded like!

I generally don&8217;t mind Nicki, but I can&8217;t hear a single redeemable quality to this song. Nothing about it works for me.

But &8220;Roman in Moscow&8221; is a great title for a thing to have. Song or otherwise.

not a big n of that whole sequel deal for rap studio albums, unless for if the that first one is a stone cold classic. stuff like cudi three sequels for man on the moon or Bun B his second album II Trill just bugs me somehow. I&8217;m fine with mixtapes doing that though. and pilot talk 1 and 2 last year, just because they were pretty much the same album.

the song&8230; is a good start on the Nicki doing spitta angle, but there were a few slightly annoying lines where she got all hashtag rap or just started throwing out playground taunts. good start though.
