Album Review: Nicki Minaj- Beam Me Up Scotty (reissue)

 Nicki rereleased her 2009 mixtape Beam Me Up Scotty with 5 unreleased songs. I was pretty hype to listen to this since I never heard the original mixtape. The new songs aren't bad. Of course the first track "Seeing Green" which features Drake and Lil Wayne is pretty good. I can't help but feel Nicki outshined them on it tho. On the old songs side; it's really good to hear a young and hungry Nicki. Songs like "Itty Bitty Piggy" are really hype. There's a lot of Gucci Mane up here too but he does pretty well on this. The "Best I Ever Had Remix" wasn't much to write home about. I enjoyed "Gotta Go Hard" which features the beat on the Kanye track "Go Hard". Overall its a pretty damn good listen and has me longing for music from the 2009-2010 era. It's hilarious when the Narrator says, "Damn son where'd you find that". lol.
