It's just digital sales. The bundle and such wasnt included in this one. |

Yeah, I know. I thought she’d have much higher streaming numbers.

It’s very annoying that her team botched the release week.
With the way the entire era/album campaign was rolled out, I don’t think anyone should be too shocked that these are the sales pre-bundle. Seeing stans predict 250k+/300k+, I knew they were setting themselves up for disappointment.
The fact that the a lot of her die hard fans probably got the bundle...and having all that not count for the first week is a bit of a frustrating backfire.

Ganja Burn is so perfect. Video is visually pretty but that's it.

Disappointing numbers for sure, but let's consider the following:
- Her rollout was a disaster
- There was no clear release date set
- There are no physical albums available, and Nicki is typically a sales artist vs. a streaming artist
- She has no single charting, really, on Urban or Pop
- Weak promo schedule lined up for week 1
The album has good reviews and BD seems to already be off to a good start. She will be fine. I just wish her s**t was together so they could have secured a bigger first week.

Wow, the Ganja Burns video is EPIC. She looks FLAWLESS. That is some Queen-ass-shit. I wish I hadn't seen the leaked video since the concept is basically the same because I would have been wigless after seeing it. I died at the opening credits...I hate her lmao

THAT being said, it's still the highest opening week for a female rapper's 4th album So we're creating faux stats now? Missy Elliott's Under Construction debuted with 259K. |

She looks flawless going to Colbert. Also “Barbie Dreams” is apparently being sent to radio tomorrow which is good- striking when it’s hot instead of waiting around. Whew chile! The flopping! This must be her Braveheart era! We can only hope she’ll iconically scoot across the floor to her seat on Colbert tonight! |

QUEEN has the highest opening week for a 4th album by a female rapper with NM as her initials, a song named 'Whip It' on her catalogue and an ever-expanding ass and you can all suck it. It's literally a fact. Stop trying to downplay her achievements.
