Nicki Minaj’s Touring Momentum Drives Pink Friday 2 Back onto Billboard Lists

Nicki Minaj’s Pink Friday 2 World Tour has been a massive success, with the rapper adding a second US leg due to high demand. As a result, her album Pink Friday 2 has seen a resurgence in popularity, re-entering three Billboard charts: Top Album Sales (No. 24), Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums (No. 50), and Billboard 200 (No. 124). The album sold over 3,200 copies and shifted 9,800 equivalent units, including streaming data, in the latest tracking week. Pink Friday 2 has already reached No. 1 on all three charts and has spent 34 weeks on the Billboard 200. To celebrate its first anniversary, Minaj will release a reissue, Pink Friday 2: Gag City Reloaded, on September 13, which is expected to boost sales and streaming activity further. The tour and album’s success solidify Minaj’s position as the “Queen of Rap” and demonstrate her enduring influence on the music industry.
