Nicki Minaj is set to etch her name in history books yet again if new reports are to be believed.

On the verge of extending her history-making mark on singles charts by garnering her 100th Hot 100 entry with Little Mix‘s ‘Woman Like Me’ (click here to listen), news has it the rapstress is now being greeted with news her fourth studio effort – ‘Queen’ – is now officially eligible for platinum certification.

With Nicki Minaj‘s US tour on the back-burner until 2019, the femcee is throwing more time into plugging new album ‘Queen.’

‘Ellen’ was her latest stop and Onika made sure to make it count.

During her candid chat with the talk-show host, Minaj expanded on her gripe with Travis Scott – who she infamously claimed scammed his way to #1 (bumping her to #2) by bundling his album with merchandise.

On the drama, she said:

“I’ve had a #2  [album] and I never cared. It’s just that when you have a #2 album to someone who’s selling shirts and merch and selling passes for a tour that has not even announced yet; it feels like you’re being tricked. It feels like someone is playing a game as opposed to just selling music. I want to sell music.”

Elsewhere, she spoke about her lovers – old and new, and performed a ‘Queen’ medley comprised of  ‘Barbie Dreams,’ ‘Ganja Burn,’ and 6ix9ine collab ‘Fefe.’ 

Nicki, who’s long been an advocate for education, also spread good cheer by teaming with Ellen to help fans pay their student costs.

All the action awaits after the jump…

What some may call desperate sales tactics, others call smart marketing.  However you label it, the truth that lies in the middle is that Nicki Minaj and camp are pulling out all the stops to ensure her new album, ‘Queen,’ reigns over next week’s Billboard 200.

Just a day after official reports projected this week’s champion, Travis Scott, will repeat his victory over next week’s competitors (click here to read that), it’s been revealed ‘Queen’ is being offered as part of a $5 bundle deal.

Refreshed reports indicate Nicki Minaj‘s previously forecasted reign atop next week’s Billboard 200 with her fourth official studio, ‘Queen,’ is on track to be blocked from the tally’s perch by this week’s champion Travis Scott.

Scott, who took the #1 position on the chart from Minaj’s Young Money brother Drake, shocked fans and industry analysts alike when his latest project – ‘Astroworld’ – bowed at #1 with 537,000 units shifted (the second largest debut this year to date).  Coming as his second chart-topper overall, the set was originally predicted to shift at least a third of those sales in week #2.  While updated information suggests his second week sales will fall a bit shy of that projection, they’re still believed to be just enough to keep ‘Queen’ at bay.
