Nicki Minaj‘s new studio album ‘The Pinkprint’ has found its way to the top this morning, soaring to iTunes #1 spot minutes after its release in the United States.

Marking her third studio album in four years, the project now sits atop a list which holds J. Cole, Taylor Swift, 5 Seconds of Summer and D’Angelo in its Top 5, set to be held there by an intense promo week that will include appearances on ‘The View’, ‘The Real‘, Bravo’s ‘Watch What Happens Live‘ and BET‘s ‘106 & Park.’

    • CT December 15, 2014

    • Tyler December 15, 2014

      B**** sit your twink ass down she is selling that much because of the heavy promo behind her. Bey sold more than that will no promo at all

      • Tyler December 15, 2014

        ^^
        But b**** hold on, why are you trolling under my name?

  5. Nicki Is Queen December 15, 2014

    Queen! i believe you can go over 200k!

  6. LB December 15, 2014

    I’m listening to it on Spotify right now, it’s ok so far.

    • Jansel December 15, 2014

      Omg thank you for the album sale barb!!!!!!!!!

    • Peter H. December 16, 2014

  7. Kingofhearts December 15, 2014

    Lol at the BARBZ hoping she does over 200k. That’s a f****** flop y’all talk such a big game about this chick but can only see her doin 200k?? The most bias set of fans I’ve ever seen

    • maurice December 15, 2014

      draggggggg them for filth

    • Twitter: @OnikaBoss December 15, 2014

      You do know we mean 200k in the next couple of days right………………?

  8. gilbert December 15, 2014

    This is probably her best album to date. I was not disappointed. It has been on replay all day. Love u Onika!

    • truth (icki is the QWEEN OF PUSHBACK!! Iggy got her scuured honey. #IckiAFlop) December 15, 2014

      Sissy

  9. LB December 15, 2014

    So far, well Nicki needs to make up her mind. Is she a singer? Is she a rapper? Is she both?

    I feel like she wants to be a pop artist but uses the “rapper” tag as an insurance policy.

    • Arianator Barb December 15, 2014

      You like Azealia and Lauryn so you know damn well there is no problem if she does both. Nicki can be whatever the f*** she wants to be. she came from rapping on the streets hustling mixtapes to being the queen of hip hop by working and rapping her ass off. If she wants to rap, sing, or both at the same time, she f***** will and you WILL LIVE WITH IT!!

      • LB December 15, 2014

        Hold up, I need to check the news to see if Lauryn Hill has been announced dead…..nope, Lauryn Hill is still alive.

        That automatically means, Nicki cannot be the queen of hip hop because Lauryn Hill is still on the throne.

      • Nicki Is Queen December 15, 2014

        I need u to have several seats LB sit and don’t get back up.

    • Twitter: @OnikaBoss December 15, 2014

      Stop trying to put artists inside of a box. If they want to branch out, let them. She’s been doing it for years, and it’s why her fan base is so diverse.

  10. LB December 15, 2014

    Feeling myself, want some more, only = trash. How did that make it on the album?

    Four Door Aventador sounds too Lil Kim to me.

  11. CT December 15, 2014

    Nicki needs to leave me alone I cant afford anymore wigs… that wig nicki has on in that picture is mine… I remember she snatched it when she released lookin ass..

    • RihNaj December 15, 2014

      Hahahaha stop it *crying* xD

    • truth (icki is the QWEEN OF PUSHBACK!! Iggy got her scuured honey. #IckiAFlop) December 15, 2014

      Buy some soap and bathe ho. Its ITUNES QUEENS NOT BILLBOARD!! Hell i can chart on itunes kii!!

      • B December 15, 2014

        They usually go hand and hand … Just saying .

  12. LB December 15, 2014

    Did Marina and the diamonds finally get signed? Her album up for pre-orders is listed under Warner Music Group, where is the promo?

    • Dem Lessors December 15, 2014

      She’s signed To 679 she don’t need no promo. Already got 500k views in 3 days for her new song’s audio. Warner always been sh!t at promoting, the only artist they have enough payola for is Katy Perry. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DCB_MbYyCYQ

  13. Stinky December 15, 2014

    I really tried to find something wrong but it’s like every song is better than the last. I’m sorry, I can’t even hate. This album exceeded my expectations. *goes to purchase it on itunes*

    • truth (icki is the QWEEN OF PUSHBACK!! Iggy got her scuured honey. #IckiAFlop) December 15, 2014

      Cus u a sissy

  14. Rihanna #1 fan t December 15, 2014

    Wow Go Nicki.. Love to see a black girl doing well !!
    Truly happy for her success..!!

  15. LB December 15, 2014

    Well I’ve about listened to all I can stomach, my opinion, a lot better than Roman Reloaded but not good enough.

    There are some gems like Pills n portions, grand piano, bed of lies and my favorite on the album the crying game.

    Some songs are good too like the one with Ariana Grande, otherwise, the rest of the album is between meh and garbage.

    • Arianator Barb December 15, 2014

      Thanks for the streaming points, now GOODBYE!!!

      • Prismatic December 15, 2014

        Is yours truly platinum yet?

      • Arianator Barb December 15, 2014

        Has Katy learned how to sing or stop being a corny basic ass b**** yet?

  16. Unbiased December 15, 2014

    Far too much filler on this.
    J Coles album was better.
    Run the Jewels had the best rap album of 2013

  17. Beysus December 15, 2014

    #3 on UK iTunes. *Plays Mona Lisa* Way better than PFRR…

  18. I die 4 nicki December 15, 2014

    What can I say, God bless u Nicki. I die 4 u

  19. No Name December 15, 2014

    She is NOT the Queen Of Rap!

  22. Mimi Carey December 15, 2014

      • CATFISH CAREY December 15, 2014

        SAYING SOMETHING BAD ABOUT MARIAH WON’T HELP PIGNEY SELL OUT THE 4600 CAPACITY VENUE SHE STRUGGLES TO FILL UP .

      • RICHIE_RICH December 15, 2014

        Truth I’ve always had mixed feeling about Nicki. At the end of the day she can rap. I feel Nicki and A.Banks are the only feeling bringing the fire. No hate from me Nicki did her thing.

      • truth (icki is the QWEEN OF PUSHBACK!! Iggy got her scuured honey. #IckiAFlop) December 15, 2014

    Hopefully she’s going Platinum through ITunes I’ve seen several #1 acts & none have went Platinum but I’m sure her delusional fans ARE STRIVING FOR HER TO GET PLATINUM STATUS…

    #KimberlyLilKimJones=QUEEN OF HIP/HOP!!

  26. RICHIE_RICH December 15, 2014

    Changed the game with that digital drop
    Know where you was when that digital popped
    I stopped the world
    Male or female, it make no difference
    I stop the world, world stop…
    Carry on

    • Bey-Minaj December 15, 2014

      P**** on fleek. Bey stopped the world…carry on. That track is fire!!! So glad Bey and Ariana is on the album. Lawd I need a new wig. Although I was really looking to Katy Perry I am happy with the outcome. Plus I hear we are gonna get a Nicki/Kay single soon on Katy’s new album.

  27. RICHIE_RICH December 15, 2014

    I’m Lil Kim Fan all day long, but Nicki did her thing no hate it’s room for Nicki too….

    #1 in 16 countries you forgot to mention! The Queen is coming! Album shocked the hell out of me because its so good

  30. ontherun December 15, 2014

    Omg this album is so good. She’s finally found that perfect middle ground.

  31. MisdamenorFan December 15, 2014

    I just looked at the features… You Bitchez better NOT EVER SAY ANYTHING about someone having a feature heavy album EVERRRRR! Wow.

    • BOOBIE December 15, 2014

      Yeah but her songs are not ALL FEATURE NO SUBSTANCE. She actually has memorable lines and verses that you want to rap along to. So bye ho!!!

  32. P**** Glitter December 15, 2014

    She better sell more than J.cole with her “loyal fanbase” kiiiiii

    • The Truth Emeritus December 15, 2014

      I doubt that will happen while D’Angelo is number one on iTunes.

  33. HALF AMAZIN December 15, 2014

    I like a lot of the production on this album but many of the lyrics are cringe worthy. I guess lyrical content isn’t really needed when you have a dope beat. I still don’t understand why this album is named the pink print, fashioned after a considered classic by a MAN. AND she has no executive production credits? HUH??? Ima buy the singles that I like but I can’t take this seriously as an album.

    • Tyler December 15, 2014

      no the production was a mess not even Bey would release such s***

      • Eat It Up December 15, 2014

        Biitch STFU! beyonce can’t even write a full sentence how TF she supposed to know the difference between “Good N Bad production” >>>>>>_/

      • Tyler December 15, 2014

        @Eat it up
        B**** that’s not even me but since u want to troll under my name, how tf are u going to shade beyonce when RihIllegalAlien hasn’t even mastered the art of the English language her damn self?

      • Eat It Up December 15, 2014

        i don’t stan for rihanna dummy. unlike beyonce rihanna can actually chart.

    • Nicki Is Queen December 15, 2014

      She does have executive credits it says on the back of the CD but you tried!

  34. BeyxMaraj December 15, 2014

    OMG slaaaaaaaaaay!!! I’ve been sitting in the corner clutching my wig. NICKI YOU BETTER NOT!, I JUST BOUGHT THIS WIG.

  35. TRUTH COMMISSION December 15, 2014

    Nicki this album is amaze balls. I can’t believe how much I enjoyed this album. You really let us in on your life. WOW! Nicki going out with a bang for 2014. Just imagine what 2015 has to bring for nicki.

    This s*** is gonna be on repeat for a while. This album is So emotional to. I didn’t see it coming. Nicki minaj is showing b****** why she is queen of rap/hiphop. Almost 5 years in the game and she still relevant and going strong.

    Iggy STANS gotta respect this album. It’s nothing much they can say. Iggy is probably somewhere jamming to this.

    • BeyxMaraj December 15, 2014

      This s*** is the shiznizz.. I’m bopping to it right now. This bish done did it again.

  36. Eat It Up December 15, 2014

    Ya’ll messy queens over hype everything on this site -__-

  37. ThePinkPrint12.15.2014 December 15, 2014

    gratz to her she doing her thing, and in my opinion it’s a great album.

  38. rita ora can win a oscar December 15, 2014

    Sam,

    Some news! Rita Ora performed at the white house for Obama. Iggy A has new song with britney spears. Rita Ora new song FEAT Charli XYX comes out in jan

  39. Kiyonce’ December 15, 2014

    I love the song with Bey & Ariana & my favorite is buy a heart with meek the whole album is fire !!!! Yas Onika

  40. Eat It Up December 15, 2014

    Unapologetic>>> The Silicon Injected Pink P**** aka The Pink Print

  41. Charlie December 15, 2014

    This album was much better than I expected. After those underwhelming singles she released (especially anaconda) I almost had no hope. They didn’t do the album any justice (I thought it was gonna be worse than PFRR). Congrats Nicki! I will be checking for you!

  42. Rosie December 15, 2014

    I still think it’ll do 150-180K.
    Also nnn cling to those 18 countries on Kworb for filth when you click “Hide small countries” it’s only #1 in 3 (US, Brazil, and Thailand).

  43. Bey-Minaj December 15, 2014

    Nicki is #1 on global iTunes. Yassss

  44. SCHEISSETHRONED(GRAPEJUICEKING) December 15, 2014

    #2 now 🙂 and falling…

    Who’s the flop now?

    • Bey-Minaj December 15, 2014

      Nice try, but she she is still #1 worldwide.

      • SCHEISSETHRONED(GRAPEJUICEKING) December 15, 2014

        and that means…..
        Let it go honey.
        Talked all that s***
        Tore all her clothes off
        Showed that fake ass
        Titties
        Not even #1 on iTunes US

        *DEAD*

      • The Truth Emeritus December 15, 2014

        As if the rest of the world matters. When nobody likes you at home, then you have big problems.

    • Bey-Minaj December 15, 2014

      Umm Nicki’s been #1 since 30 minutes after going on sale. STFU. The charts fluctuate all the time. Wait till the predictions come out before you talk s*** will ya.

  45. The Truth Emeritus December 15, 2014

    D’Angelo is out selling Nicki at THIS moment. He’s number 1 on iTunes. No promo. Didn’t even know his album came out until I purchased it is morning. jCole is creeping back up to number one btw.

  46. Bey-Minaj December 15, 2014

    Feeling Myself is #1 on Hip Hop iTunes chart. Slayyy Queens.

  47. Rosie December 15, 2014

    So all that promo and pornography just for it to be blocked by a surprise release from a R&B singer who hasn’t released an album in 15 years.

    • SCHEISSETHRONED(GRAPEJUICEKING) December 15, 2014

      I usually don’t do this. But Rosie b**** i like you now. Although I usually have a biased opinion of Gaga i have come to the realization that ARTPOP really wasn’t that amazing of an album. lol

      But I am having a fun time KIIIIING these Nicki fans that talked unlimited s***

  48. Bey-Minaj December 15, 2014

    The Pinkprnt is sold out at the DMV and Target, they will be restocking soon.

  49. Bey-Minaj December 15, 2014

    Nicki Minaj makes history as the first female rapper to have an album go straight #1 in 20 countries within 24 hours of a digital release.

  50. Bey-Minaj December 15, 2014

    @chartnews: Billboard R&B/Hip-Hop Airplay – debuts: #42 Feeling Myself, @NICKIMINAJ Feat. @Beyonce
