Nicki Minaj’s “Pink Friday 2” Reaches One Million Units Sold In The U.S.

by

Nicki Minaj’s status in hip-hop is pretty much cemented now at this point in her career. Or is it? The legendary Trinidadian rapper and singer with roots in New York continues to transcend even the greatest of her accomplishments. If you have been living under a musical rock for the past month, she dropped her long-awaited album, Pink Friday 2. While some feel the tape is a bit bloated, her Barbz are still enjoying it nonetheless.

Recently, the 41-year-old femcee has been dishing out new versions of the album. The first of them was called the Gag City Deluxe. That tacked on a remix of “Beep Beep,” which included 50 Cent. Additionally, she worked with Keyshia Cole and Monica for “Love Me Enough.” Then, over this past weekend, Nicki and Future got together for a second collaboration on “Press Play.”

Whether or not Nicki did this to up the streams and sales will never be known. But, we would be remiss to say that it did not help PF2 earn its first major milestone. According to chart data, the sequel over a decade in the making has just hit one million units sold in the United States. Nicki took the time to thank her Barbz for this incredible achievement. “Thank you to every single one of you listening [and] supporting this album, the best label Republic Records, the GREATEST artists in the WORLD of our generation featured when I needed them the most,” according to a quote gathered from Revolt.

What are your thoughts on Nicki Minaj’s latest sales milestone for her new album Pink Friday 2? Is this a better record than the original Pink Friday? Do you feel she did a great marketing job to reach this goal? Or, do you think her record would have taken longer to get one million units sold without the other versions? We would like to hear what you have to say about all of this. With that in mind, be sure to leave all of your hottest takes in the comments section below.

Drake’s “For All The Dogs” Hits One Million Units Sold In The U.S.

by

Drake just knows how to produce big numbers with every album release. Even with him releasing six more tracks in just about a month, he was still able to move 143,000 copies. Of course, we are referencing the expanded edition of his latest record. After saying he was going to take maybe a year off from doing much musically, Drizzy dropped a bombshell. For All The Dogs Scary Hours Edition came out this past Friday, November 17, and it truly shocked a lot of people.

The Canadian superstar grabbed some production from Conductor Williams and The Alchemist, to name a couple. Additionally, he nabbed another J. Cole feature on “Evil Ways.” Finally, to top it off, Drake wrote all of these six tracks within about a five-day period. “I did those songs in the last five days. I didn’t have one bar written down for those songs on the night that For All the Dogs dropped.”

The Drake craze has always been real and this latest milestone further proves that. While it was bound to happen at one point, the deluxe version selling the amount it did, pushed For All The Dogs to the one million units sold mark. His work ethic is unreal and because of that, another record hits seven digits. Congratulations to Drake for continuing to dominate the music industry.

What are your initial thoughts on Drake’s For All The Dogs hitting one million copies sold in the U.S.? Is this the Canadian rapper’s best album in the last five years? Which tracks are still in your rotation? Did the Scary Hours Edition add or detract from the original record for you? We would like to hear what you have to say about all of this. With that in mind, be sure to leave all of your hottest takes in the comments section below.
