If anybody ever dared to doubt the sales power and impact of Nicki Minaj, the response to the rapstress’s latest singles – ‘Chun-Li’ and ‘Barbie Tingz’ – should act as viable reasons to reconsider that stance.
As we reported here, the cuts – which both premiered this morning (April 12) – are reportedly the lead singles from Minaj’s long-awaited fourth studio album, the follow-up to 2014’s double platinum ‘Pinkprint.’ The fan reactions to the tunes’ respective releases, coupled with with the Harajuku Barbie’s domination of headlines due to confirmed beef with fellow femcee Cardi B (click here to read about that), certainly made the Young Money maven the top talk of the day.
The ultimate result? She’s topped the iTunes sales chart with both singles:
As of time reported, Minaj is occupying three of the top 10 positions on the iTunes sales chart:
The rollout on digital sales outlets – in addition to availability on top streaming platforms – will spell for a handsome Hot 100 debut for the tunes upon their arrivals on the chart.
Keep it locked for more news on this as it develops.

Ermmmmmm ok!!
Cardi Stole her Hair-Dresser, CArdi also started the Beef about LYING on the Motor Sport Situation. I have to give it to CARDI – she has virtually tarnished Nic’s Name and Brand all the while making us think she’s the GOOD GUY…. Cardi is vicious……She’s TURNED THE RAP GAME INTO LOVE AND HIP HOP Drama right before our eyes…WITH ZERO TALENT.
Karma! Those songs are terrible. Forgotten in a few weeks.
yesss !! The hook makes want to slap alm these rap b****** !!!!! Nicki has never done that kind of song before,I love it. BT slays too
Could not give a s**t about two women arguing and childish ‘fans’ (children with to much time on their hands). These two songs are fire and so is Cardis album.
All a media spin and these children fall for it lol
Barbie Tingz is just everything mate!!
THE BIG BARBIE! DON’T CARE ABOUT HATERS OPINION, THEY WIL HATE ANYWAY!
Barbie Tingzz and Chun-Li production, flow, style and pronunciation’ is everything Cardi B couldn’t even touch! Haters act like Cardi brought a new sound to the music when in reality she’s using MIGOS rejects, she mumbles over wack beats. On the other hand, we have Barbie who revive the RAP GAME! Shout out to the Queen!
I Like It doesn’t sound like Migos at ALL…Nicki has weak asss production lol…her music sounds like something you get out of a snack machine!
Does anyone know who’s writing songs for Nicki now? Azealia Banks perhaps?
Those songs are terrible. Forgotten in a few weeks.
So? The songs are wack and won’t be hits. They aren’t even radio friendly, and Nicki is a radio friendly artist. She vanished for months just to come back with two underwhelming tracks. Nicki you in danger gurl…
Don’t matter they’ll be platinum by thenyall wanted real hiphop y’all getting it shut the f*** up
????
No frauds, Regret in your tears. charted #1, #2 and nobody even remembers or still plays them songs….these 2 new singles will be forgotten in 2weeks and will have no impact on the Billboard .It’s charting now because it’s new and people want want to hear if it’s about Cardi B.Nicki screwed up big time.You got all hype to promote your new music but you decide to talk about Motorsport and Cardi ? a song that came out months ago??…If your a Queen you would’t be bothered by Cardi yould would let the music speak for itself.Nicki no longer has confident in her music and it’s showing in her interview.She needs bangers for radios and the summer that will keep the momentum going,these 2 tracks failed.
Mediocre songs that will be forgotten in 3 DAYS lol…Cardi’s I Like It is about to be a major HIT…but the Barbz will remain delusional as always smdh lol…ya’ll act like Nicki just released Mama Said Knock You Out ? These 2 made for fans weak asss tracks…as if Chun Li would ever be a THANG…fetch won’t happen!
yeah but last week this site was hating on Nikki
How is Barbie Tingz on there twice? That’s clearly some fuckery!
The songs are just cute not hits
