So I just picked up the new Nicki Minaj CD - the Target exclusive with 2 bonus tracks - and Anaconda, other than having vocal samples from "Baby Got Back," is totally instrumental, including none of Nicki's vocals from the single version, which, BTW, runs 3:20 on Now 52, while this instrumental version runs 2:55.

Okay. Buyer beware the Target version. I posted about it on my facebook page and a post from Nicki's facebook page got linked to my post, and it said this:

"Did you know that when you get ‪#‎ThePinkPrint‬ @Target you’ll get TWO bonus songs plus a FREE download of the Anaconda vocal?!?!"

Yeah. So the version of Anaconda that actually features Nicki Minaj is not on her CD if you get it at Target. You basically get an instrumental version of Baby Got Back.

I just can't figure out why the music industry is totally crashing....
