Nicki’s album will cross the 200K maybe sell a little over 500K
260k I say.
I don’t think it’ll sell that much . After hearing it I think its a decent album and will probably push close to 275k
I she will move over 200k in one week because The PinkPrint is already sold out online Target and Best Buy.
I say over 300k n it would be nice if she can break Lauren hills record
I kinda believe Sam actually… But it’s been leaked so why would we want to win a free copy when it’s already in people’s hands???
It hasn’t leaked. It was released in certain countries yesterday. NZ and others. So of course it would be online. In fact I am happy the way this era is shaping up, no leaks and great music on the album. I hope Buy A heart & The Crying Game are singles.
Ahhh!!! That makes more sense…
You must’ve missed the “or $15 iTunes gift card” part dumbass
Ugh shut up b****…
Im with sam
I agree with Rashad the album will shift over 200k its first week
Shut up ho. 8m with sam but i dont want that gotdamn cd if i win. Hell to win that shyt is to LOOSE!!!
OFCOURSE IT WILL SELL OVER 200k anaconda already 2xplatnium pills n potions bout to be platnium PINK FRIDAY SOLD 375k its first week ROMAN RELOADED SOLD 253k its first week thats 2platnium #1 albums already SO YEA THE PINK PRINT WILL SELL OVER 200k

Oh ye of little faith Sam. It will break Lauren Hill’s record. #ThePinkprint
I’M WITH SAM
It will NOT!!! She’s a has been!!!
I’m with Nobody!! NOT A FAN OF FALSE ARTIST!! #WINTHATGRAMMYIGGY!!
Not a fan of a false artist but want Iggy to win a Grammy? LMFAOOOOO
Of course Nicki will surpass 200K
Lol, Guh I know, its like the pot calling the kettle black, smh!
I’m with Sam but in the event i might win kindly gift the CD to my good friend S****** Blonde or my brother RoyalKev *goes into hiding*
I agree w Sam
YES, I believe she will do more than 200k !
I say over 200k.
Somewhere around the 275-300k mark.
I see her selling in the 150-175k range and that’s no shade. This era has been forgettable and it will reflect in her sales.
She’ll sell 4-500K plz bookmark me
It might sell 215k in best case.
I definitely think over 200k Her fan base has definitely grown since her last album..probably due to that ass!!
I believe she will sell over 200K ! Hands down!
El_barbi3_94@live.com
plz choose me!!!!! I want a copy!!!
YASSS YASSS IT WILLL! Did you see that all the pre-orders are sold out? Streaming will definately help. Everyone so far loves it. Slay ONIKA
Nicki is gonna push numbers. It’ll be 300K or more. I believe it. I have faith. I’m proud of her and super excited for this.
shan.carlisle322@ymail.com
I agree with Rashad, the album will sell over 200k in its first week. She has a loyal fan base.
Icki wants to make the female blueprint while Queen Iggy ghostwrote Jay Z’s classic Blueprint too late you degenerate heaux Iggy Wins By Motherfucking Default
Over 200k for sure
She will defenitly go over 200k with all those anaconda views oh shiiet its gunna get real!! Whos buying a copy!!
I believe it will be over 200k. She calls herself the queen so it’ll be embarrassing if her barbs don’t allow her to be the winning woman in hip hop she always raps about being.
I am the one and only critic. I DESERVE TO WIN. Not because I want her album (I don’t have any intention on owning it) but because I’m one of the few loyal commenters on here with CLASS and respectable opinions. Advance google search me
Class and respectable opinions? Gurl you’re just as biased as (false) Truth, GOAT etc pls don’t fool yourself into thinking otherwise. You saying your opinion is respectable is also an OPINION, your OWN OPINION which isn’t important nor factual. You can say my opinion doesn’t matter either but I’m not fooling myself to think people would truly care about my words on a blog comment section
She is queen!! She is on the top of the charts and she still continues to win!
Not over 200K.
As much as I’m a fan, I think the promo, single choices, and release schedules have been messy. And despite her talent, most consumers have already made up their mind about Nicki.
She’s definitely getting over 200k first week.
Yes . The PinkPrint will definitely sell over 200k .. It’s perfect of course it will sell .
125K
Under 200k for sure
500k first week that’s for sure.
This is so wack. Anyway, I think TPP will sell 230 – 280k first week.
We won’t know till the ink is dry but I see Ms. Minaj shifting more than 200k.
Now give me that copy Sam.
DEAD @ you wanting a free copy of your faves album.
And they still want their fave to sell more
I’m buying ofcourse but… Still want that copy though. I could never get enough of Queen Onika.
90-100k
I do believe she’ll open w/ good sells. She is one of the few w/ the industry behind her and a strong fan base. She has transcended and acquired a larger audience. Not just your traditional urban or pop, she has turned causal listener into part of her nontraditional fan base but either way I am proud of her. No only is she a woman in the rap game but a woman of color (two minorities in one) obtaining international stardom. #LoveHer
I’m gonna be laughing at teamminaj when she sells under 100k lol she ain’t making no moves around here. Iggy taking her lunch money & pouring milk on her head. Nicki run back to wayne snitching saying “that white girl just took my lunch money!” Iggy ain’t taking her foot off of nicki neck.
Nicki WANNA sneak diss already. Talking slick like Iggy won’t step to her. She already step to eminem. What makes you think she won’t call nicki out. B**** don’t play with Iggy. F*** YOUR FEELINGS ITS IGGY SEASON B****!
YAAAASSSSSSSSSS!!!!
Both of you are delusional LMAO !!! If you think Iggy is more hip hop than Nicki then you must not know anything about hip hop lol
True I hope nicki don’t sell hardly shyt.team iggy and kI’m
u know she got haters that will love to stream and again it is soldout online… I see it being number 1 as of now!!!! and going platinum …
I say again if she doesn’t sell over 150K Bitchez getting dragged by their eyelashes to hellz.
HATER..
Oh I’m a hater? Why because I don’t kiss this HOESS a**?
I don’t need a copy since I already purchased the Target, Best Buy and iTunes. However, you can give this gift to either Goat Kim, Truth or Danyiel Teflon. Their lives need to be slayed, they always so grumpy.
Especially that undercover fan @Danyiel Taflon. He needs some Nicki in his life. He’s so dried up, TTP will got him wet.

I feel like she will debut with 127k
I’m with Sam!
Course you’d say that, old pressed bish
I say she’ll do 238-245K!!!
Team Sam!
I’m willing to bet it’ll sell somewhere around 150k-200k. You have to remember that although the promo has been major for this project, aside from “Anaconda” she’s largely gone in a much more urban direction – the mainstream, pop consumer hasn’t purchased the other singles and are probably not checking for a Nicki album with no new “Superbass” or “Starships” on it.
I think she will sell less then 200k first week she should have included more pop songs on the album tbh.
Lol @barbies world are u crazy? She would get dragged for dear life
I think she can sell 210-220 in a week
Big Fan Base + Streams + Holiday sales = 215k-230k or more First week
Those of you saying that she will sell 400-500k are delusional at best. Yes, she has a loyal fan base and it has obviously grown since her last era. However, her fans are NOT loyal enough to work as a unit for an ENTIRE week and move about half of what ONLY Taylor has been selling her first weeks. With that being said, she will definitely sell over 200k- considering the current tragic state of the music industry affected by illegal downloading, streaming, YouTube (vevo) views, etc. Besides, all those forgettable singles ultimately helped increase her star power this era…thanks to Rihvember canceling its slayage to be continued later.
MAYBE 190k nothing more
I don’t think Nicki will sell over 200k. I think she has enough appeal to, but as we’ve seen with Jlo & Mariah hype doesn’t guarantee sales. I think she will have a great debut with around 150k. I think she should have released the album shortly after Anaconda, and that would have guaranteed big numbers. She has let too much time past between her big hits Bang Bang & Anaconda, and today we’re trendy shoppers.
No doubt she will cross the 200k mark but she won’t out do pink friday. Roman Reloaded was horrible compared to that album and she needs to do damage control with this album before she can reach those numbers agian. The album being leaked may help encourage her faithful fans to purchase it cause now we know its not all that bad as the last one.
What loyal fanbase does she have when her last album didn’t even go platinum? She’ll never see platinum again mark my words
it did go platinum
It did not SELL one million copies. I guess Ariana went platinum too since it was certified and hasn’t even sold 500k lol
Nicki will sell over 300k, I’m buying a few copies.
This is a tough one to predict. Because none of her songs are currently huge hits and I feel like the album is just gaining some buzz… She should’ve released it when Anaconda was popping off.
170k?
I am skeptical about over 200k judging from her last release. But I guess we’ll see!
I definitely think The Pinkprint will cross the 200k mark! It’s a great album 🙂
She dropped the album of 2014, of course she will sell over 200K!
Yes, nicki will move well above the 200k mark.
not ancient tgj dinosaurs wanting Nicki’s copy
.
I won’t say no names
I think she’ll get around 350k
Stupid question
150k
Lmao I wasn’t expecting so much comments, I’m just here for that $15 iTunes card!!!!
It will debut with over 200k, Sam can stay delusional :/
She will definitely reach over 200k. It’s a great tracklist and it features some great artists, so I’m positive about it. And from the songs she recently put out, I can say this album is going to be her best album yet!
It’l debut over 350,000 mark my words. A lot of people will be eating crow.
It will definitely sell over 200,000 copies its first week.
“Key’s to the n****’s safe, put it under my tits…”
I really hope so. Her strongest album to date. lots of stand out moments, and I’m loving the slower songs and personal lyrics.
Never doubt Onika. This will be her best opening week ever. The Barbz aren’t playing around this time.
This b**** will sell more 200k, she’s had the best year in her career yet, and if Gaga could bring in more than 200k with her flop ass era, Nicki can bring that in and more. Watch her slay your faves and remain Cash King. (I also want that copy, thanks!)
I know for a fact she will sell over 200k in the 1st week. I know this because line world is craving the return of vicious rhymes, extraordinary musical productions, and raw and gritty lyrics, all of which Nicki has so effortlessly proved she can do. The anticipation for this album speaks for itself. This album will restore the absence of TRUE HIPHOP.
Of course she’s gonna sell over 200k! She’s had the best year of her career yet, and if Gaga can bring over 200k with her flop ass era, Nicki can do that and more. You just stand by, watch her slay your favs and remain Cash King! (I also want that copy, thanks!)
Flopnika’s album will struggle to hit 100k. If she does sell more than 100k, just know it’s payola. By the way, have y’all read the terrible reviews that the Pink Slip has received? SO FUNNY! This b**** is DONE!
Payola doesn’t work with album sales you r*****, if so Piggy would be like 5x plat by now with all the AirPlay she buys LMFAO but she’s still uncertified, I suppose it’s better than Kim could do now though so of course you Ling stans live through Iggy
Never doubt Nicki. She surely will open will 200k+
She will do 200k+
Over 200K SHE WILL DEBUT AT #1
Over 200K for sure but probably not by much…though if J. Cole can do it with no radio singles then maybe more.
She will push over 200k. I’m thinking somewhere around 215.
I definitely think Nicki will sell over 200k. I think at the worst it’ll sell at 200k . The reason she’s not #1 on iTunes was because she used target,amazon, and best buy to promote the album first and then released the iTunes link. With preorders solely on iTunes she would have been #1. And her album is the #1 most anticipated of the year. She’s also been focusing on rap rather than pop and that’s what ppl have been wanting all along so I wouldn’t be surprised if she sold more than 375k . The same anticipation ppl had with Pink Friday will be the the same for The PinkPrint.
Love Nicki! But I don’t think this album will do 200k or more this time around.This is just an analyzation,but unlike with her first two albums They were carried by strong single selection “Super Bass” “Your Love ” and “Starships” as well as shocking performances and a bunch of crazy antics.Not to mention she was on her feature grind.However,critically I do think this album will do much better and solidify Nicki as an actual artist and not a gimmick.I feel like it’ll be more of a continuation to Pink Friday than Roman Reloaded,but these are just my thoughts.I wish Nothing but success for her.
Oh and I shall speak life into existence,for there is power in the tongue of the mouth. I am here that iTunes Gift Card fam. 😀
I have been a fan/barb of Nicki for the longest, i really wish i win. Nicki Minaj will for sure get over 200k! Pills n Potion and Anaconda both made it high on BB 100 and high. Anaconda reaching at the number 2 spot. And now ONLY! Having artist from Ariana to Beyonce, people will want to hear what she got going on and then may be purchasing it. btw thanks grapejuice…
Ive commented but i really want The Pink Print
300k with the help of streaming.
500 to 600k I am predicting
she will sell under 200k –
She should sell.she made sure no heavy hitters was released on that day just so she can habe a number one.but if u a queen you can go against whomever. I won’t be buying nun all her stuff sounding the same.
Of course! Nicki slays the industry!
It’s sell 250-300k , Loyal fan base + Streams + Shipments = platinum by ending of January & Beginning of Feburary . Because U.S. as her fans are just not buying one copy . I bout 2 . Some bout 10 . Best Buy & Target sold out . “The Pinkprint” 9 on overall charts on iTunes , just off pre-orders. Imagine when the album Drops the 15th . So that’s 100k right there plus another 150k-175k when the album drops on the 15th. Throughout that whole week . So the album will do great . Better than iggys anyways . The compition at the 2016 Grammys for Best Rap Album will be Between . “J-Cole’s – 2014 Forest Hill Drive” “Nicki Minaj’s – The Pinkprint” & “Drake’s – Views From The 6” . AND MAYBE “Lil Wayne’s – Carter V” if it comes out by then .
I agree with Rashad!Nicki will easily push at least 200,00 copies of the PinkPrint or more with all the hype and talk about the album. The preorder sales have been great!
I know she will easily sell over 200K!!!!!!!
All this arguing yo .
I just want my free album . 🙁
Just let the sales speak for themselves . 🙂
She won’t sell that much (200K)
She will sell above 200K but only by a little. The hype for this album wasn’t as strong as Roman Reloaded. I just heard the album on Spotify and it actually wasn’t that bad but her departure from her ‘Hip-pop’ might cost her those fans that she won over from “Super Bass”. Also, the album cover for both standard and deluxe editions doesn’t show her face. When they go in-store, they’ll be wondering if Pinkprint was a remix album or not. The buyers will be her most dedicated fans.
I agree with Rashad
Y’all are nuts. This album doing more more than 150k and I say 120k.
Yes nicki will sell over 200k but under 500k
Here for my entry in the contest! 😛
I THINK THE ALBUM WILL BE GREAT BUT IT WILL NOT PASS THE 200K MARK IN THE FIRST WEEK BUT IT WILL SELL MORE IN THE FOLLOWINGS WEEKS FOR SURE, SHE IS THE DOPE!
