She basically released 7 new songs, a DVD, and a 7 month old album in new packaging for the same price as a new album. Considering there are no huge hits from those 7 new songs, it's not surprising it's not selling. Eminem and Lady Gaga in 2009 are the only artists I can think of that sold 100K or more off of a re-lease in week 1.

Unless Nicki's Re-Up is a standalone and doesn't count towards Roman Reloaded sales, I don't see how it's a flop.

Weeknd just packaged three mixtapes that were available from his website for free up until about a month before the official release, added 3 songs and sold about 80k.

That's different. Trilogy is packaging three mixtapes that were online for free for retail. He stands to gain especially since he's new to a lot of people. To them, it's three discs of brand new music. Then there's the crowd, that may have just wanted to support.

Nicki's established and is basically asking people to re-purchase her old album with 7 new songs.

Thats what she get for being disrespectful to Kim :yeshrug:

Kim had a 9 year stretch, 1996 to 2005, from the Bad Boy days to Lighters Up...

I doubt Nicki Minaj will be anywhere in 2020 :yeshrug:

I don't wish bad on any black people, I want us all to be prosperous, but these Young Money nikkaz have to go. When nikkaz see wack ass rappers like Wayne and Nicki releasing these wack ass/poppy singles and selling records fukk you think they gonna do? I don't wish bad on her but I'm not dissapointed that she sold badly and I'll be glad when she is no longer in the spotlight

She crossed over to quick and not knowin them white people will love her one day and throw her ass in the trash can the next.most of her new so called fans were not real fans.they were just riding the cool trend.

im willing to bet her next album shes going to try to reset her image and be on some street level hiphop shyt again.thats what all flop crossover artist do when they try to cross back.[/QUerOTE]


:salute:nikkas gon learn one day,abandoning what made you hot don't work out for the best most of the time...we've seen a lot of careers take a quick turn doin that shyt.

This song basically sums up Nicki.
