"Da Baddest"(2000) sold over a million = Platinum, "Diamond Princess"(2002) & "Glamorest Life"(2005) both sold over 500,000 = Gold. Get your facts straight before you talk numbers. That's my job hunny, numbers all day long. I work for Billboard and report back to them. Not that it matters or that it is much of a difference but "Amazin" sold 34k it's first week. More than Bone Thugs & 8Ball&MJG who usually sell more albums than Trina. Lets talk numbers baby ! I don't care who you work for, Trina never had a platinum album. I could understand Baddest Bitch being certified platinum, but it's not even that! And Glamorous Life did not sell over 500,000 lmao f**k outta here. Where is the pr00f?? Go here and click on "About Trina" www.thebaddestchick.com/

Such solid evidence. ok ok... if your so "into" evidence than you show me where it doesn't say she sold that much. I report back to Billboard. This use to be a site for people in the music business, but now its ran by crazy psycho fans that think they can talk numbers, when really they don't know shit about the music industry and how it really works behind what people really see. You dont have to believe that she sold 2.6 mil. albums. I know, Her fans know, and Billboard knows. When Trina was on MTV cribs she had her Platinum album hanging on the wall : p

This "used to be a site for people in the music business"? You've only been a member here since August. Has it really changed that much since then? It's not Ego's job to provide evidence that she hasn't sold that much. If you work for Billboard ( ), then maybe you could provide us a link to an article where Billboard ratifies her numbers? A fan website isn't proof of anything.

A fan website isn't proof of anything. I never said I "WORKED" for Billboard. I said I report to Billboard. And if you know anything about Billboard.com there is no where you can go to find all the artist that have went platinum, unless you work there. Because going platinum really isnt anything big, but if you have went diamond that is easier to find out naturally, Britney Spears, Madonna, Michael Jackson, Beatles for some examples. Now here is the best evidence I can give you because like I said I dont work for Billboard I report to them. BIG DIFFERENCE. I'll post the links and quotes so you can find it better. www.hiphoppress.com/2010/05/platinum-selling-artist-trinas-album-amazin-debuts-at-1-on-soundscan-independent-chart-and-2-on-rap-.html"PLATINUM SELLING ARTIST TRINA's ALBUM "AMAZIN'" DEBUTS AT #1 ON SOUNDSCAN INDEPENDENT CHART AND #2 ON RAP CHART" "With one platinum and two gold albums behind her and her loyal fan base, AMAZIN' proves to the skeptics that Trina remains a major rap influence." ""Da Baddest Bitch" was extremely successful, peaking at #33 on The Billboard 200 and was certified platinum, selling over 1,700,000 copies in the United States." www.rapweekly.com/rapweekly/?p=6973www.blackplanet.com/music/view/artist.html?page_url=trina_official"But her first two albums, Platinum selling debut album "Da Baddest B***h" (2000) and Gold album "Diamond Princess" (2002) focused on the raw and raunchy style that made her famous, followed by another Gold album entitled "Glamorous Life" in 2005" www.rapnews.net/Artists/Trina/Biography/www.soulofmiami.org/2010/02/03/trina-diddy-and-keri-hilson-filming-video-this-week-for-million-dollar-girl-24610/I could go on for days hunny. Just go to google and type in "Rlatinum selling artist Trina". Thank you Thank you I'm here all night.

I never said I "WORKED" for Billboard. Yes, you did... Anyway, And if you know anything about Billboard.com there is no where you can go to find all the artist that have went platinum, unless you work there. I don't know a whole lot about billboard.com anymore because it had a redesign recently and is now almost impossible to use. However, I wasn't suggesting they have some sort of sales database, I was requesting links like those you provided below. Now here is the best evidence I can give you because like I said I dont work for Billboard I report to them. BIG DIFFERENCE. We've already established that you did say you work for Billboard, but no matter. All your links prove is that she had one album sell 1.7 million and two certified Gold. Being certified Gold could mean she'd only sold 100,000 copies of each or something. I would have thought that somebody who reports to Billboard (a reporter? A shop owner?) would understand that the RIAA certifies albums based on shipments. I could go on for days hunny. Please don't, hunny. Just go to google and type in "Rlatinum selling artist Trina". Typing "Rlatinum selling artist Trina" into Google just brings up Asian Billboard. ;)

And everybody knows that if you have a Gold album that %00,000 units have to be moved.

That would be sufficient, but RIAA search results are impossible to link because of how the URLs are displayed, so the citations are broken. Here: Not sure why it doesn't show a Diamond Princess cert., but that's what I got.

HAHAHA your funny. You got that info on Wikipedia. Such a good resource to use. NOT ! Wikipedia is nothing but lies. Do your research hunny. Da Baddest Bitch is Platinum. Diamond Princess & Glamorest Life is Gold go to the links I posted earlier. i'm tired of telling everyone. Why is it so hard for everyone to understand. you all haters. Yes Lil kim, Foxy Brown, Lauryn Hill, Missy, and Eve have all sold more albums. So that makes Trina the 6th best in sales for female rappers. Nothing to scream about but hey. She sold 2.6 million albums i'm telling you all for the last time. one Platinum, 2 gold. Take it or leave it. It's no big accomplishment but hey she is the only one around really doing anything. Yes I know Nicki is on her grind but she hasnt even came out with an album and er new single flopped harder than Million Dollar Girl so there you have it. Trina still da baddest if you didnt know already. 5 albums strong. More features, videos, and singles than any other bitch in the game. She has worked with the best. She has her own Cosmetic line called "Amazin" featuring lip gloss, eye lashes, and perfume. She is revamping her clothing line as we speak. She has her own record label called DP Entertainment, which is why she charted #1 on the top independent albums sales chart. She charges 20k per performance and clubs and venues pay it !!! She has her own reality show coming out this fall if you didn't know. THE FIRST FEMALE RAPPER TO HAVE HER OWN REALITY SHOW ! AND WHAT ! So in closing she is still da baddest. need I say more. Oh and she has her own non profit organization called Diamond Doll. And if you buy her lip gloss a dollar goes to a non profit that Wycelf Jean sister runs. * whips sweat off forehead DAMN NEED I SAY MORE* I can keep on going if you all want me to lol HAHA HEHE HAHA HO !

Cool story bro. I hope you don't think anyone is going to read all that trash. NO Trina albums are certified platinum by the RIAA, and her first album was ceritifed Gold almost half a year after it's FINAL single was released. It did not sell, or probably even ship platinum. BOTTOM _________. Now back to the subject at hand...

Yes wikipedia is nothing but lies because ANYONE, you or I, could change any of the information on that site. That's why it's not reliable. *thinks to self* God some people are so easy. And I made a GREAT arguement because I don't see no other bitches in the game doing it like Trina. What other bitch has been around for 12 yrs ? Tell me that. She might not be the best selling female rapper but damn you can't argue she is the best business woman rapper EVER ! Well maybe besides Queen Latifah lol. 5 albums, CEO of her own label, a group signed under that label, clothing line, cosmetic line, perfume, reality show, spokes person for circo & nuvo, her own non profit. What I'm trying to say is she might not be able to sell albums but you can't argue the fact that she is the BEST female rapper BUSINESS WOMAN. And other than Nicki Minaj who is NEW she is the only one still standing and relivant after 12 years. Hhhmmm where they at where they at where they at ? lol
