Nicki Minaj is back following the one-year anniversary of Pink Friday 2, with the deluxe The Hiatus to be released on Dec. 13. This final deluxe installment wraps up the PF2 era, as Minaj announced on X, writing, “Pink Friday 2 – The Hiatus. The final deluxe installment on the 1-year anniversary of PF2. 12.13.24.”
While Pink Friday 3 was originally teased earlier this fall, the focus now shifts to The Hiatus. Minaj had initially planned to release Pink Friday 2: Gag City Reloaded in September to coincide with the second U.S. leg of her record-breaking Pink Friday 2 World Tour, but those plans changed. It remains unclear whether Pink Friday 3 will still serve as her next era or if The Hiatus will close this chapter.
