“Amazing grace/ How Sweet The Sales That Saved A Stan Like Me“.
In this world, there are two kinds of fan bases. One being the kind that support their favorite acts with their mouths and not their money and the second being the kind to do both.
Nicki Minaj‘s ‘Barbz‘ would fall under the latter. Indeed, as a result of the buzz surrounding her new LP ‘Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded‘, her debut album ‘Pink Friday‘ has enjoyed a sales boost.
To be exact, despite receiving little to none physical promo in the country, it has reached platinum status.
Details below…
With sales over 300,000 copies, the British Phonographic Industry awarded ‘Pink Friday’ with Platinum status April 5th 2012, two days after its follow up ‘Roman Reloaded‘ sold 20,000 copies less than 24 hours after its release.
This, despite heavy competition from Madonna‘s ‘MDNA’, Adele‘s ’21’ and Labrinth‘s ‘Electronic Earth‘ has landed it the #1 spot in time for Sunday’s final tally.
Minaj is the now first US Female Rapper since Lauryn Hill to enjoy a Platinum LP in the country.

Looks like the bajan queen remains on her thrown, but its great to see Nikki sneaking rap into the mainstream conciousness.
some may claim she is selling out but shes using the pop sound to plant roots and create an international fanbase for female rap.

I tell you the Navy will lie. She had way more than one form of Promo she was in the UK for a total of a month touring performing WFL, which is from TTT. Of course she did Xfactor, she did Jingle bell ball, and even came back and did three more shows in the end of December and then the Brits. Sorry but that is not singular that is plural and the reason behind her sales being so much. Don’t do it yes she was Certified Platinum from shipments, but she really only sold 163k that week.
Anyways Congrats Nicki.
Nicki was born in Trinidad. She’s more from new York since she was raised there since 4 year old. I’d say Rihanna is more island cuz of her accent.
Oh okay I thought she sold 1 million copies..lol! I was about to bow down and just say damn….! 🙂 300k in te UK alone is pretty good. I don’t know what her numbers will be like in the states as the media has really torn the CD completely down.
**Here hoping TeamBreezyUK pulls the same hat trick for Breezy May 7! 🙂
Platinum after two years though??
luv u
so ill seee u later then kxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
