Nicki Minaj Outsells Chris Brown & Rihanna On Billboard Year End Chart

Published: Tuesday 6th Dec 2011 by David

 

The last week of December will see Billboard release the final Year End Chart for the period December 2010 to November 2011.

Expected to confirm that Adele‘s ‘21‘  is the highest selling release of the year, this year has seen the chart anticipated like never before with the likes of Beyonce, Rihanna, Lady GaGa, Lil Wayne and ‘The Throne‘ all making major moves  their respective projects within the last twelve months.

 

However, it would seem despite the intense competition it faced this year, one album in particular has managed to exceed sales expectations in a way many thought it never would.

Nicki Minaj’s ‘Pink Friday‘.

Full story below…

With over 1,663,349 sold in the US since its release last November, the Rap czar’s debut album will without a doubt chart in the top ten of this year’s list, ranking behind  GaGa‘s ‘Born This Way‘  with 1,948,914 units  sold and Lil Wayne’s ‘Tha Carter IV‘ with over 1,752,000 shifted since its release in Augst.

Quite interestingly, even without a #1 single on the Billboard Hot 100, ‘Friday‘ has outsold releases by both Chris Brown and Rihanna, both of whom enjoyed numerous successes on the singles chart.

For, with Brown’s ‘F.A.M.E’ moving a less than stellar 781,000 units since its March 2011 release and Fenty’s ‘Loud‘ racking up sales of  1,547,300, neither of these records were able to best the commercial success that was Minaj’s debut effort.

Elsewhere, Beyonce‘s ‘4′ is expected to be the highest selling R&B project of the year, shifting 941,000 copies in the country since June,while Drake‘s ‘Take Care’ readies to chart impressively with over 900,000 copies moved since it hit stores three weeks ago.

  8. xedos December 6, 2011

    even with her cd at .99 cents gaga still haven’t move much . i wonder what would have happen if it was sold at regular price. Had Rihanna did more promotion for her album and singles she would have sell more than niki and gaga

  9. Jordan December 6, 2011

    Lol at QueenoftheNavy and worldwide Nicki def is not in the top 3 so this isn’t the most accurate publication

  10. OH REALLY December 6, 2011

  11. I’ma have to send her to her maker December 6, 2011

    @S*** now you tryna be buddy-buddy wit rihanna fans? Faker. Anyways, Rihanna been famous for 6 years and still don’t have a number 1 album in the US. Nicki Minaj does so stfu. Rihanna is a UK brand name. Nicki do it big in the US. PF sold 2 million WW. Lil kim’s next album will never push a million. Congrats to nicki.

  12. Twista December 6, 2011

    @Xedos

    What do you mean, “had Rihanna done more promotion for [Loud]?” I don’t see how she could’ve done much more – she launched a world tour (which is still ongoing), released 6 videos, performed at numerous festivals and award shows, including a high profile performance of the “S&M” Remix with Britney at Billboard. She did all she could and netted up with 6mill+ worldwide, so I say she did exceptionally well.

  13. S*** (U MAD?) December 6, 2011

    @I’MA HAVE TO SEND HER TO HER MAKER

    Im Gon Get Rihanna that #1 Album!!! 😆

  14. THE GREAT LACEFRONCE. December 6, 2011

    BLEACHonce making MAJOR MOVES?? LOL.

    4CLOSURE is STRUGGLING to move 1 million copies in the US

    Rihanna>>>>>>FLOPonce & gimmick GARBAJ 😉

  15. MISHKA December 6, 2011

    ‘Loud’ numbers are okay though. Obviously, it will end in the top five. But TTT is defintely not what’s up.

    Congrats to Nicki! Now it’s time to pass the staying power test.

  16. Cockiness December 6, 2011

    Sam is calculating this all wrong if mean the year staring from November then beyonce is not the 7th highest……she will be way down the list. however if you are talkinga bout starting from January then yes she is the 7th highest.

  17. ThankMeLater December 6, 2011

    BAHAHHA Thats really sad.

    LMAO @ Samantha tryna spin Rihanna’s amazing album sales into a bad story for her.

    Pink Friday 1.63 Million
    Loud 1.57 Million
    4closure 950k
    Fame 781K

    LMAO!
    I guess having a #1 album don’t mean s*** after all.

  20. TruthTeller December 6, 2011

    TTT did not sell 17k
    More DELUSION from her haters.

    Just watch TTT smash passed 2Million sold WW in 6 weeks.

  21. Cockiness December 6, 2011

    How the hell is Rihanna a UK brand…there are only 100,000 copies separating LOUD from Pink Friday??????

    How ever TTT will not do that well because Rihanna really isnt promoting this one like she could because she is on tour…so i dont expect LOUD numbers from TTT

  22. TruthTeller December 6, 2011

    @Cockiness
    U know Sam tweaked that list cus he wanted to make Beyonce look good.
    4 didn’t even make the top10. He added copies to her total.

    WHAT A PITIFUL BITTER B****!

  23. matt December 6, 2011

    Gaga has sold nearly 2mill in the US since the end of May, Just over 6 months. Rihanna is struggling to reach 1.6 mill in 12 months. Don’t even go there lol

  24. BC December 6, 2011

    TTT only sold 64k in its 2nd week lol.
    anyway
    Sam this post is a mess. do u mean of January or…
    but of 2011 4 is 7th best selling but the other albums came out at different times

  25. S*** (U MAD?) December 6, 2011

    @LACEFLOP

    But Bey isnt LOCAL like nicki Fakij 😉

    4 sold an astounding 2 MILLION ALBUMS WW (& 6 MILLION RECORDS!!)

    Plus it stayed 2 Wks @ #1 even with ADELE out… Unlike RIHANNA who cant even last 1 wk. Great for an un-commercial R&B Album with No Hits.

    Plus it WILL sell that 1 Million unlike TTT 😥

  26. OH REALLY December 6, 2011

    TTT only sold 64k in its 2nd week lol.
    anyway

    ——————————————————————————————————

    So its 64k? and not 17K? I am confused

  27. Cockiness December 6, 2011

    A world Wide Superstar>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>Local “artist”

    THATS ALL…..All of these artist with numbers you just mention Nicki, Bey, GaGa, Wanye, Drake, chris rihanna only sold a few hundred thousand than them in the US and in the case of Bey and Chris she still sold more than them in the US….Also non them match her WW Sales so guys could have several seat on Santa’s lap for that one

  28. BC December 6, 2011

    Rihanna released 3 album sin about 3 years bc of low sales. Load didnt sell that considering the singles success and promo. dont go there

  30. SNDR BEY December 6, 2011

    Congrats yo Nicky, Gaga and Wayne..
    I didnt expect for Beyonce to end up that high. (I LOVE TOO SEE IT..) People are talking about flops.. I guess it isn’t. It wasnt a commercial succes but still end up that high.. WOOWW:d

  31. S*** (U MAD?) December 6, 2011

    Plus LOUD only beat 4 by about 500K, When 4 hits its Year mark it could be like at 1.2 Million. 🙂

    Rihanna is NOT a big deal in the States 🙁

  32. michael c** December 6, 2011

  38. OH REALLY December 6, 2011

    Link? @S*** ?

  39. BC December 6, 2011

    and im not trying 2 be mean but the Rihanna stans actually called 4 a flop for selling over 100k in the second week and watch them say 64k is not bad.
    sorry 2 all the nice rihanna stans

  40. BC December 6, 2011

    @COCKINESS
    sorry.
    and Bey has not did that much for 4.

  41. WHUT December 6, 2011

    PURE DEATH @ the BRAINDEAD hive not knowing that hitsdailydouble updates periodically and bolting in here with that 17k rubbish when the chart wasn’t even fully done!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

  42. BC December 6, 2011

    hold on 17k next week. that cant be right.
    id say about 45k

  43. Cockiness December 6, 2011

    Bey hasnt done tha much for 4 are you crazy….that was the case in the beginning but now….Every week she has a special and a interview and she has had like 6 videos for her album which has only been out for 5 months

  44. WHUT December 6, 2011

    @BC You don’t know the number you clown HDD hasn’t laid out any damn projections for next week!! What MORONS!! HAHAHAHAHA!!!

  45. BC December 6, 2011

    TTT is not the best selling but it will sell eventually. i think she thinks more about #1 singles

  46. S*** (U MAD?) December 6, 2011

    @cockiness

    Those INTERVIEWS arent for the Album Fool! = NO Promo!!

    & all Those VIDEOS arent Singles.

    ONLY Singles have been: RTW, BTINH, PARTY, COUNTDOWN, & LOVE ON TOP. & ALL are different from whats on the radio today. Theres no Proper promotion right now.

  47. THE GREAT LACEFRONCE. December 6, 2011

    Rihanna>>>>>>>FLOPonces camel fetus(or the one her surrogate is carrying ) 😛

  48. Cockiness December 6, 2011

    And another thing that wouldnt help TTT sales is that second single….I HATE

    Has anyone even heard it on the radio cuz i sure as hell havent

  49. WHUT December 6, 2011

    Back on topic those loud numbers are quite s*** for someone with no number 1 album!! Hmmmmm I wonder why Samantha neglected to post overall WW sales here as well!

  50. BC December 6, 2011

    @WHUT
    who r u name calling. i did not insult u or rihanna so get ur self in check.
    @COCKINESS
    it still not that much promo compared 2 her others. or the other chart topping albums. i dont wanna talk about this ok.

  51. WHUT December 6, 2011

    I don’t like it either @Cockiness I want it to go away soon so we can get ‘Where have you been’ out! I don’t know why they didn’t do Talk that Talk for the second single it would’ve been a better choice imo.

  52. S*** (U MAD?) December 6, 2011

    Plus Bey didnt do many High profile appearances for 4 like Tyra, oprah, Cnn, etc & only a Few High profile performances in the span of just 1 Month 😕 Yet 4 Still 2 MILLION though it was Poorly Managed/Promoted.

  53. S*** (U MAD?) December 6, 2011

    @Cockiness

    YOU DA ONE >>>>>>>>>>>>>> The Others 🙂

  54. BC December 6, 2011

    u da one comes on my radio and she has the #1 song around the globe. Riahnna doin ok. dont worry. but as far as TTT sales now it does not look too good but it could change

    AND BEY! WOW highest R&B album sales, so happy and proud, she deserves it! She is on top WOW!

  57. RatedXXX(you mad because????) December 6, 2011

    @bc

    u ready?

  58. VA STAND UP!! December 6, 2011

    Oh Sam you so obvious at this point it’s ridiculous! What was the point of even mentioning Chris Brown & Rihanna’s name in the same title?! Why the hell are you comparing albums that have been out for over a YEAR to an album that was just released this year?! You love baiting people for stan wars don’t you?! You will stop at NOTHING for hits! SMH!

    Nicki as well as Rihanna’s albums came out LAST year, so they had months ahead of FAME to get sales and Nicki & Rihgoat obviously are females who appeal to mainstream ( and gays who are the most suportive fanbase there is) so platinum isn’t a hard feat for them. Not to mention Nicki has collaborated with every artist under the sun this year so it’s obvious why her album was more successful.

    Chris is clearly still demonized by the media and his stunt on GMA didn’t help him at all. ‘LAMN’ was really Chris’ only crossover hit that appealed to mainstream this year, everything else was a hit on the r&b/rap charts and well all know the urban market is the less supportive of their artist. Chris is the top selling male r&b artist this year and after ‘4’, FAME is the second hightest selling r&b album. His sells could be better, but could have chosen better singles. *shrugs*

    Anywho, congrats to Nicki I guess, even though she is a gimmicky aritst who clearly marketed herself as a ‘black Lady Gaga’ to appeal to mainstream. I don’t want to say she sold out, but she sold out, to appeal to white folks & gays to sell albums. Its obvious! Her & Lil Weasel are so over rated it’s ridiculous! I don’t care how many albums they sell, they certainly don’t live up to the hype. Just look at their performances. Enough said!

    Congrats to Drake, he is the only dude from Young Money who I really respect but I am not a big fan of his either. Not to mention it is annoying how he keeps kissing Lil Gremlin & Nicki’s cartoon ass. I cannot wait for the day he leaves Young Money!

  59. Stacy December 6, 2011

    That’s because Birdman bought have of them.

  60. JohnVidal December 6, 2011

    Adele and Gaga slayed the year! I will be happy if one of them takes Album of the Year at the grammys. And sorry but some of the Loud and Pink Friday sales doesn´t count for Billboard year end charts cos they started to sell in 2010

  61. Seirra December 6, 2011

    Nicki got 8 singles and didn’t even reach 2million.Fail.

  62. RatedXXX(you mad because????) December 6, 2011

    first of all those are U.S sales only..

    i doubt chris and rihanna losing sleep over this s***….

    nicki is local..rihanna is worldwide…enough said

    i love how u threw 4 in this mess, trying to play like it outsold somebody…

    Gaga..i hate that album..with a passion..she didnt try at all..so dont care for her sales

  63. LilKimIsTheOriginatorOfEverything December 6, 2011

    How rude of TGJ
    You didnt post how Kims Black Friday sold!!!!!

  64. Roman December 6, 2011

    US doesn’t have a huge rihanna market we know that already… Worldwide she still rocks so I don’t think Bey fans should talk :|…

  65. TeamBreezy December 6, 2011

    How is “4” the best selling R&B album when LOUD won best R&B album at the AMAs ….. Sam quit making excuses for that FLOP ass Album by calling it “R&B” .. SHE’S POP!!!

  66. RatedXXX(you mad because????) December 6, 2011

    second….umm pink friday came out in nov 2010..how the f*** ur going to compare that album to chris, when his came out on march 2011?

    did i mention how much I hated born this way? I HATE THAT ALBUM….i sent a long ass letter to akon…

    gagas my girl, but, she could have done so much better..

    so nicki is a rapper now? since when? i could have sworn she was a pop artist…..

    i miss the real female rappers…

  67. RatedXXX(you mad because????) December 6, 2011

    @@@@US doesn’t have a huge rihanna market we know that already… Worldwide she still rocks so I don’t think Bey fans should talk

    trust and believe they know that…..its better to talk s*** when u know ur fav is flopping

    The Navy overseas go out and support Rihanna. In the US just like with Chris & Rihanna fans don’t do enough of buying and supporting their fav. They talk a good game what they are going to do but never follow through instead their downloading for free. Example just like Black Friday & Cyber Monday all that bragging on twitter about buying and look at the sales

    Rihanna CD was not on sale but Chris CD was.

    Congrats to Nicki

    i see u boo…ur saying how u feel without throwing any shade or calling rihanna out of her name….

    i have alot more respect for u now..

    but u have to admit, the majority of the time the beys stans are very ruthless…they hate to see any body do better than beyonce

    i will always give people props, dont care if i dont like them….

    @RATEDXXX(YOU MAD BECAUSE????) b**** you sound stupid, Nicki went platinum in how long? a month? yeah it’s been how long since FAME came out and still not platinum! so it makes very much sense to compare, know your s*** before talking outta your ass

    Are you people slow?
    This is for the year 2011.
    For the year 2011 4 is the best selling R&B of the year.

    Plus when 4 came out,the navy was calling it an flop.
    Also this 2 million you’re saying rihanna has sold with TTT. That’s a lie.
    She only did about 500K and some change world wide in the opening week.
    She hasn’t sold that much with TTT.
    Loud is an year old stop using that for your argument.
    Face it, no more excuses #1 single or no #1 things are looking bleak really quick for this album.

    @ WHUT & TEACHER

    Since when did we write off somebody as a has been and flop just because 1 album did poorly?

    At the end of the day, Christina has still sold more than Goat Girl. With the exception of Bionic, Christina’s 3 albums together have sold 50 million worldwide which is something Goat Girl could never accomplish. Christina’s debut and Back to Basics debuted at #1, Stripped at #2 and Bionic at #3. All of them have pushed big numbers in their first week with the exception of Bionic.

    Christina doesn’t need to resort to cheap ass gimmicks and tactics just to sell and/or get a #1 song or prance around in a f****** meat dress or wear hideous ass red tracks looking like f****** Ronald McDonald on crack just to get attention.

  114. ChristinasCOMING December 7, 2011

    Oh and btw @ WHUT & TEACHER

    Since you brought up the sales of Rihanna’s debut and compared them to Bionic I feel the need to point out that Rihanna’s debut only did 1 million worlwide and Christina’s did 17 million worldwide.

    The U.S. Buys Nothing but the the Most Seemingly Appealing But

    Superficially fabricated Plastic trash the Music Industry can Shove

    Down Its throat! And Last Time I checked @ WHUT and @TEACHER

    xtina just had auber 1 song on the chart. Umm Moves Like Jagger.

    And her Movie did tremendous! Now her show slays the s*** out of

    television.

  121. ChristinasCOMING December 7, 2011

    @ WHUT

    Christina was mocking Gaga in that video you fucktard!

    And with Dirrty, Christina did that to showcase a more grown up, mature side of her while Britney was still on that bubblegum pop s***.

    Christina took control of her career and did what the f*** she wanted to do. Do you see her remixing any of her songs to get them to #1? Slashing the prices down on itunes to more than half of what they were before? Selling your album practically for free just to sustain more sales?

  122. ChristinasCOMING December 7, 2011

    @Christina…MOTS was a debut album from an unknown island girl..Bionic was from a PREVIOUSLY successful veteran…no excuses…lol..and dnt start w/ the she does things tastefully n classy…u gon start lyin n soundn like the Bey fans…@Whut jus showed u her using gimmicks and bein unclassy…Was it tasteful n classy when she grunted n growled n F***** UP the National Anthem……Uhhhhhhh NO…….I dont see Christina discountin or slashin prices but maybe next time she should and she mite stay on the charts w a single of her own…Im sure that if she was able to prance around w/o getn tired quick huffn n out of breath then Im sure she wuld..but she has to get booked first..Maroon 5 will soon be moving on to the nxt single so she won’t be able to tag along…AND Rih sold more WW last week than Bionic has sold to date…Rih’s lowest sellin album outsold Christinas lowest sellin album so *shoulder shrug* #NEXT——>

    @Krylon…B**** Bye….Rih has been #1 WW w/ WFL for 6 or 7 wks now AND she’s been #1 in the U.S for 5 weeks straight #NEXT———>

    @ Sam, are u serious? I think u forgot to mention that “Friday” also outsold B’s album, which hasn’t even gone platinum yet, despite having been out for months. Leave Riri out of this, she already went platinum! And when I think that a few months ago you were poking fun at her for not having done so while “Loud” had been out for quite a while. Where’s B’s platinum status, huh? Sugar coating the fact that she still hasn’t gone platinum and all, ” Beyonce‘s ‘4′ is expected to be the highest selling R&B project of the year”, my ass. What a “fair and unbiased” site u r!

    i would rather wear a meat dress to get attention..then f*** for tracks

    dont get me started…

    gaga is doing what xtina has been trying to do for over 15 yrs now….even after 15 yrs, she still cant get on britneys level..she still in britneys shadow…

    Party, Party, Party,,,,,While the rest of us like me and Rihanna & Company or burning the Mid Night Oil,,,,,, Hey Loves don’t worry to much about RIHANNA’S Sales because she’s to busy trying to ride this tiger for 12 more days and then she can get off that Tigers ass and get that rest she need.
    RIHANNA Is going on that HIATUS Just as Queen Bee Suggested and i hope that Queen Bee has taught RIH How to double down while shes on that HIATUS Just like Queen Bee did when she was on her HIATUS, Less see BEE Did Many Endorsements, Ads and even moved “HOUSE OO DEREON”
    to the UK With a new STORE OPEN FOR HER FASHION LINE. I say out of sight out of mind for “LIL MS SUNSHINE” And with them long ass s*** legs up in the air resting she is surely going to get her Prospectives all together.

    PS
    Keep wearing yourselves out trying to knock each and every thing she and her Huge Navy or doing that is Worty to be talked about, kicked around and of course talked down. Go NICKI Love you NICKI AND YOUNG MONEY,,,,,, Nicki also did more than Beyonce, kelly, jill, and Others just to name a few,,,,

    OHHHHHHH Yes RIHANNA SAYS TO kISS HER UNTALENTED TIGH ASS
    AND THAT MANY OF YOU “LOOK SO DUMB” AND SHE SAYS THAT SHE THOUGHT ABOUT ALL OF THE NASETY, VILE NAGETIVE AND HATEFUL THINGS THAT WAS STATED ABOUT HER ON HER “JINGLE BELL BALL STOP,,,,BUT SHE SAYS WHILE YOU MIGHT BE RIGHT IN YOUR BACKWARD WAY OF THINKING SHE WANT YOU TO KNOW THAT SHE WAS IN BETTER FORM LAST EVENING WHEN SHE TOOK TO STAGE WITH OVER 12,000 PEOPLE FILLING THE HOUSE AND THEY DID HAVE A
    SMACH OF A PARTY,,,,ALSO EVEN THOUGH SHE HAS HAD A VERY HARD STRUGGLE TO GET OVER TO THIS SIDE OF THE MOUNTAIN SHES STILL AS HAPPY AS EVER AND GOD,,,,,IS GOOD ALL OF THE TIME ,,,,AND THAT GOD IS STILL IN THE BLESSING BUSINESS AND HE HAS BROUGHT
    HER THIS FAR BY FAITH AND IT WILL BE FAITH & GRACE THAT WILL KEEP SEEING HER THROUGH AND SHE WILL KEEP RIGHT ON PRAYING FOR THOSE WHO GO OUT OF THEIR WAY TO TRY AND KEEP THE STORMS ROLLING AND STAYING RIGHT OVER HER HEAD FOR NO REASON AT ALL OTHER THAN JEALOUSLY , ENVY, AND HATE.

Had Chris been supported as heavily as Sicki Garbaj or Rihonald McFenty by both the media and handlers that were all to willing to purchase their acts CDs *cough* Bird Man/Mack Mane (YMCMB) and Gay-Z & Co. (Def Scam) he would have sold more!

    I’m proud of Chris Brown for continuing to shine regardless of all the racist, sexist bullsh*t he endures in a racist hateful nation! Get is Breeezy! #f*ckyouhaters
