First on the list of releases will be Tyga with his continuously pushed back Careless World: Rise of the Last King which is due to hit store shelves on February 21st, 2012.

Young Money’s first lady and our favorite Nicki Minaj will be releasing her sophomore album Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded, on April 3rd, 2012 to follow up her 2010 breakthrough masterpiece, Pink Friday. This is one of the most anticipated YMCMB albums we see set for 2012 with some already continuously played tracks “Roman In Moscow” and “Stupid Hoe“.
As for Lil Wayne and Birdman, it is not one hundred percent carved in stone but it seems like we may be in for a treat with a second installment of Lil Wayne’s I Am Not A Human Being 2 and Like Father Like Son 2 from the Birdman.
