    How? She’s had one album.

    • Jus Sayin July 23, 2024

      Every single song on that album has gone either platinum or diamond. That one album has outperformed the entire catalogues of many rap veterans, including Nicki.

      • E Jai July 23, 2024

    This is false, Nicki Minaj has 114,000,000 Credited on RIAA website. 200 Million including all features.

    All of these certifications are due to streaming, which doesn’t actually generate that much revenue or even provide fame outside of one’s fanbase. She doesn’t actually sell albums…
    Imagine if Michael Jackson, Whitney, The Beatles, Elvis or Madonna had streaming when they were dominating sales, airwaves & culture. Those people were hugely famous, but the average person on the street doesn’t know Cardi B or her songs.

    Nicki has a lot of charting songs many as features but none of them were really big songs sales or charting wise like one would think. Go look at the charts her songs weren’t huge like Cardi’s. Even her number one song Super Freaky Girl stayed in the top of the charts…what? 3 weeks!

  8. July 23, 2024

    The lies, that chick be flopping all over the place course they are going to pull the bull out there @sses to distract from that last flop with Rob whatever his name is..Nicki or her label doesn’t even update her certification like that.

    • Why U Gaggin July 23, 2024

      Cardi’s sales is old news. That album was doing crazy numbers since it was released and through the pandemic. That’s why Nicki went into full panic mode trying to secure her position because Cardi snatched that crown with only one album.

      • July 23, 2024

        what crown did she snatch? you are delusional.

  9. The one July 31, 2024
