Nicki Minaj revealed yesterday that Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded, her second proper album, will hit stores on February 14th. Though the title sounds more like a reissue, Minaj's Cash Money collaborator Birdman has verified the disc as an entirely new record.

Though the Valentine's Day release date suits Minaj's pink theme, the promise of a disc focused on her flamboyant and violent alter-ego Roman seems to be at odds with the sentiment of the holiday. Who knows – maybe Roman will find love on this new album.

“Oh Sherrie”

Steve Perry | 1984

Steve Perry's girlfriend Sherrie Swafford was actually in the studio when Perry began writing this song--his lone Top Ten hit as a solo act--with two co-writers. The trio began at midnight one night with just "Oh, Sherrie!" and "hold on, hold on." Three hours later, they had a complete song. Swafford, however, had to wait until the next day to hear it. "Sherrie actually got tired and went to bed," Perry said. She also appeared in the video, but their relationship did not hold on for long.
