Nicki Minaj's new album, "The Pink Print" finally has a release date. The rapper's third album will be available from November 24 via Young Money Entertainment, Cash Money Records, and Republic Records.

The much awaited album will be - according to Minaj's statements - a return to the cutting edge rap of her early career.  "The Pink Print will remind people why they fell in love with Nicki Minaj", she said recently, "And I think that needs to be done".

The title is inspired by Jay Z’s 2001 classic "The Blueprint" - and nicki explained Hov was a huge inspiration. "I think everybody knows how obsessed I am with Jay Z" she commented. "He’s always been my favorite rapper. He did such a great job of creating this 'Blueprint' brand for male rappers and I wanted to do that [for] female rappers to be able to pattern themselves with what I’ve done one day".

To date, Minaj previewed the album with the sexy anthem “Anaconda" and the mournful ballad "Pills N Potions". Other possible album tracks include "Chi-Raq" and "Yasss Bish!!".
