Lastly, why is it that Lauryn is regarded as one of the best female rappers to date when she sang a LOT on The Miseducation but Nicki is a sellout for singing on her album? I’m not comparing Nicki to Lauryn because Nicki has a LOT LOT LOT LOT LOT of work to do if she ever wants to reach that status, but it’s just a point. Missy has shown so much creativity and is above Kim in every retrospect. Missy had the 2nd best first week sales for a female rapper’s album until now. I also must say that you cannot call Kim the Queen of Rap (if anyone has said that…) because Missy Elliot is much more successful, creative, and talented by most standards (my opinion and many others’). I know that Nicki has had more promotion than Kim, but Hardcore took SIX MONTHS to go Gold, when Pink Friday will very likely go Gold next week. Sales are factual and much more important. Yes, the matter of whether the album is good or not is important but that’s only opinion.
You guys can talk about how bad Pink Friday was, but tons of bad albums have sold hugely. People talk about how Hardcore went 2x Platinum but I’m willing to bet that in 2 years (the amount of time Hardcore took to go 2x Platinum) that Pink Friday will go 2x Platinum. Like I said, the first week sales aren’t a huge deal, and even Nicki has said that herself, but I do see this selling lots each week. Maybe Rihanna isn’t selling hugely first week, but she always goes AT LEAST Platinum.Īs for Nicki, these are the SECOND BEST FIRST WEEK SALES FOR A FEMALE RAP ARTIST EVER. Gaga sold 24k FIRST WEEK with The Fame and that’s nearing 4x Platinum – one of the hugest album sellers in the past few years.
The first week sales are important, no doubt, but overall sales are way bigger. Each week, Rihanna sells decently and moderately, but overall she reaches big sales.
Why are you bashing Nicki and Rihanna? First off, you need to understand that Rihanna never sells largely in weeks. How does Nicki Minaj sell more than Rihanna!? I KNEW IT!LMAAO GOOD JOB NICKI!Kanye bravooo!!! Smh how this Taylor Swift girl sell more that R****** in like her 5 week!?I can’t lmaaaaao dis white girl stay snatchin errbbbudy wigs!Who be buying her album though?I guess lil kids.Smh lol Rihanna Is A F****** FLOP!!!!!THAT ALL SHE SOLD DAMN THEY WERE SELLING HER ALBUM FOR $4.99!LMAAO BEYONCE IASF AINT EVEN SELLIN THAT LOW AND THAT ALBUM TWO YEARS OLD!FLOP FLOP FLOP THAT IS YO NAME R******!HOW NICKI MINAJ STILL SOLD MORE THAN BOTH YO FIRST AND SECOND WEEKS COMBINED!?Smh buy the time Rihanna sells one million in the US for this album, WIllow Smith gonna have 2 albums out already!
