This is what most of ATRL expected so idg why people are so shocked and plus why are the monsters dragging Nicki and bringing up ARTPOP?

Kind of weird and off topic? but I guess anything to make ARTPOP seem like a success.

Because ARTPOP's "flop" sales were brought into discussion to the lead up to The Pink Print's release by, surprise, Nicki's own stans. Not to mention previous ATRL threads with most proclaiming it would easily outsell ARTPOP's 260k debut and because Nicki was more "relevant" than Gaga right now...

Yet here we are, Nicki isn't set to come close to ARTPOP's debut even with the new track downloads & steaming rule counting towards album sales and the bigger "viral" hit Anaconda. Oh well..

1. Aaliyah is a legend even in her short time span has touched more people and madeich better music than Nicki Whorage will ever make.

2. It's sad when we have assholes in here talking about visiting graves and flight tickets. (Karma will be a bitch)

3. Anybody can be ghetto so don't start with the race card.

4. It's sad most of you are males acting messy and more feminine than actual females (grow some nuts)

5. It doesn't matter if she can still increase the get is she's losing sales each album. That's a sign of floppage.

Because you're assuming only black people listen to her?

Not YOU assuming black people = ghetto.

Who's more disgusting here?



I know your fave had a misstep, and other stanbases are throwing jabs...

BUT, everybody watch your ****ing mouth.

I'm confused how people are saying that Iggy stays winning?
If I recall correctly, her last full length release opened with 52,000. About 1/3 of what TPP is doing.

Reclassified was her last full length.

The Re-Up opened with 3 times the amount Reclassified did. Stay trying though.

I mean... if you wanna get technical, TNC+Reclassified sold 30k together the week Reclassified came out, so really Nicki only outsold her by 6k.

The good sis will indeed be blocked

[mypaintoyou]

I would've bought the album
but calling out "**** those skinny bitches"
I ain't gonna buy it

but I did buy get on your knees.
and downloaded the rest for free.

Nicki was featured on many collabs by big artists before releasing Pink Friday, Iggy's career started in US a few weeks before TNC was released

Correct me if I'm wrong but Iggy had 3 singles out before Fancy right? and like 2 of them were sent to Urban/Rhythmic radio right?

No excuses here, Nicki collabing with a few big artists didn't make her sell almost 400k, it was mostly her music and she didn't have any new hot single taking off unlike Iggy (who finally outsold PF's first week sales after struggling)

No matter how hard you try to spin it, Nicki wins.
