4

Pink Friday raptress Nicki Minaj puts aside the criticism and takes the Billboard charts by storm as she reloads and unleashes alter-ego Roman!

Following a musical feud with female rap pioneers before her such as Lil KIm, Nicki has managed to put aside the drama and negativity and focus on what matters the most her fans and the music! Pink Friday:Roman Reloaded has only been officially released less than two weeks ago and the numbers are quite big for this day and age!
Billboard Reports:

“Nicki Minaj scores her second No. 1 album on the Billboard 200 as “Pink Friday: Roman Reloaded” debuts atop the list with 253,000 copies sold, according to Nielsen SoundScan. That’s a slightly better-than-expected sales figure, as industry sources had suggested last week that the album was on course for a launch somewhere in the 215,000 to 235,000 range”.

She’s breaking records on YouTube, covering magazines like Elle & Cosmopolitan, featured in Good Morning American, and WAS the most followed rapped on Twitter after Eminem! #winning! Let’s remind everyone of Nicki Minaj in comparison to the artists she is set to compete with in genres of Pop & Female music!

The only female rapper at this point, who is pushing out music that Minaj has a sales contending list with is Missy Elliot, but for two albums the sales she has generated for female rap is beyond amazing!

Not to mention Billboards speech on her album debuting at #1, is safe to say 2012 has been a great start for Nicki Minaj! Romans back, Stay Tuned…as she shows signs of fusing pop and rap and being the most successful female rapper we have seen!

Could Nicki Minaj be the most successful female rapper in history? Does she deserve the title?

    She does not.  She is not hip-hop. She’s wack.  I like to see her in print ads.  Nicki takes beautiful pics.  But, rap game.  She wack.  Bubblegame.  She’s for the new generation not for real people who like real music with substance.  Sorry!  Call me a hater.  I appreciate good music and Nicki is garbage.  But, the numbers don’t lie.  And she’s doing what she loves.  That’s all that matters.

    Yes she is the most successful hip hop female! Every ingenious artist has suffered controversy by stepping out the box. All the way back to Miles Davis with Bitches Brew. By stifling her creativity and allowing hip hop stay contained in the box stunts a whole generation of future artist. She is winning! She has knocked through many barriers hip hop females have not done because they prefer to box themselves in. This her style let her run with it.

    No. That Title belongs to Missy Elliott. Look it up.
