Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded is the second studio album by Nicki Minaj, released in April 2012 on Young Money / Cash Money / Universal Republic and produced by Hit-Boy, Ester Dean, Dr. Luke, Rico Love, Polow da Don, and T-Minus. The album debuted at number one on the Billboard 200 and showcased a broader range of styles than her debut, splitting between hard-hitting rap verses and electronic dance pop in a way that divided critics and fans. The pop side yielded massive international hits including 'Starships' and 'Pound the Alarm,' while the rap half featured the intensity and technical skill that had made her a phenomenon in hip-hop circles. The double-album structure reflected Minaj's ambition to conquer multiple commercial markets simultaneously. Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded sold over five million copies globally, cementing her status as one of pop music's most versatile and commercially successful forces.
