For the second time, Nicki Minaj is pushing back the release date for her highly-anticipated ‘Queen’ album.
The album was originally supposed to be released June 15th with Nicki announcing that date on the Met Gala red carpet. It was later pushed to August 10th for undisclosed reasons and now it is getting delayed an extra week to August 17th, due to a sample clearance issue.
According to Nicki a song on her album that features “1 of the greatest rappers of all time” contains a Tracy Chapman sample she had “no clue” about. Chapman hasn’t cleared the sample, resulting in the one-week delay.
“So there’s a record on #Queen that features 1of the greatest rappers of all time,” she wrote in a deleted tweet. “Had no clue it sampled the legend #TracyChapman – do I keep my date & lose the record? Or do I lose the record & keep my date? 
do we push #Queen back 1week? Ugh! I’m torn, y’all help.”
do we push #Queen back 1week? Ugh! I’m torn, y’all help.”
Onika publicly reached out to Chapman in a tweet asking the legend to hit her up. Tracy Chapman, can you please hit me. omg for the love of #Queen,” she pleaded.
In another deleted tweet Nick shared details about the song saying, “Y’all gon get mad tea on that song too,” she added. “I’m high key lookin out for y’all chile. It’s sum GOODT TEA TOO. I’d be willing to sacrifice one more week for this tea! But I haven’t decided. Ugh. Love you.”
Nicki has since conducted a poll asking fans for advice whether she should “Keep date/lose record” or “Keep record/push date1 wk.”
