With 968,000 copies sold worldwide since April, it’s safe to say Nicki Minaj‘s ‘Pink Friday : Roman Reloaded’ is on course to fare well once 2011’s Global Year- End chart rolls in.

However, with less than 600,000 units moved in her domestic market, there’s no doubt Minaj is hoping the US leg of its supporting tour will help spark fresh interest in the slow moving release.

Brandy bids adieu to Bran-Nu?

As fans eagerly await the visual for Brandy’s new single ‘Put It Down’, the diva is announcing that she has found something else to put down…a try at rapping.  For, with the assistance of hip-hop heavyweight Timbaland, the singer introduced ‘Bran-Nu’ – a rapping alter ego that flexed another of the songstress’s many talents.
