"Nicki Minaj has said that she will be returning to her hip-hop roots for upcoming third album The Pink Print.  The singer explained that she won&amp;#039;t be creating music along the same lines as pop records &amp;#039;Super Bass&amp;#039; and &amp;#039;Starships&amp;#039;, and wants to return to her rap roots.   Minaj described in an interview with MTV how she has come &amp;quot;full circle&amp;quot;. She explained: &amp;quot;The tracks on Pink Print are back to my hip-hop roots. And I don&amp;#039;t think it&amp;#039;s something that I&amp;#039;m necessarily trying to do.  &amp;quot;As soon as I started working on my new album, that&amp;#039;s just the songs that I&amp;#039;ve been writing.&amp;quot;       When questioned about whether or not her upcoming album will feature any pop-friendly tracks like &amp;#039;Starships&amp;#039; the singer simply replied: &amp;quot;Hell no.&amp;quot; The Pink Print will be released this year and will feature tracks &amp;#039;Lookin&amp;#039; Ass&amp;#039; and &amp;#039;Chi-Raq&amp;#039;. Minaj also features alongside Cameron Diaz in upcoming film The Other Woman, released in the UK on April 23 and the US on April 25.
