I predict Niki Minaj will be platinum first week

[TraceOneInfinite Flat Earther 96']

Don't like any of the Cash Money/Young Money type of music... but this new video "Right Thru Me" sounds like an authentic pop hit, and is about to take her out of Waynes shadow and put her on Rihanna's level or bigger.   I don't know if it was her idea or her publicist, or an outside producer, but they got the perfect/single video coming out now to really make her blow up.

It's hard to predict record sales in the 21rst century with the internet interrupting sales.  I knew if it was 98 she would do Britney numbers, and with this new video and all the hype surrounding her she will probably still be able to pull platinum.

leave it to the technologically unadvanced southern states to support it's artists so much


while east and west coast fans are smart enough to DL shit haha

A majority of those sales are from DL's. Ringtone DL's that is.

I predict that Ninaj'll start dating Drake a few days before the album drops and break up with him when it flops. Drake's next single will be about him singing about how women use men with a auto-tuned verse by Wayne who's still locked up.
Or be the next Lil Kim and go down as the biggest irony in hip hop since 2Pac being a New York native.

If Wayne or Drake can't do Platty neither will her.

Not that I disagree with anything you said, but how exactly is Kim a hip-hop irony?

Kim's not the ironic part. Minaj's career becoming like hers is (remember their so-called beef?). The only difference is that she won't sell as many units.

Your trippin man... Whether we like it or not Minaj is going to blow Kim away with her record sales.  Minaj will sell more on this record then all of Kim's solo albums combined.  Dude, I live in Kansas City where they love ignorant rap music, and Minaj is fuckin huge here!  Maybe you don't see it because you live in a city that's not as ignorant as mine.

Oh my city's ignorant alright, just not crazy on Minaj. Or anybody in hip hop post-Eminem for that matter.
Sides I doubt Minaj'll move that much. She'll probably be competing with Thank Me Later. She may seem all hyped up and looking as if she's going to live up to all now, but it's always the same story for every promising album. The album leaks just hours before the release and from there the only numbers that go up are those on the DL meters on some online file-service.

[Detox Iz Not Active]

if her album sells outsells Kanye's album, it will be a disgrace

[Triple OG Rapsodie]

I predict she wont even go platinum

[Episcop Cruel Cvrle]

Drake already went Plat

[D-Nice]

It would not surprise me too much if she did go plat, but I think more in the 300-600k range 1st week is more reasonable.

[Quadruple OG]

"The Carter 3" went platinum in its first week and Drake went platinum after a month (in Canada "Thank Me Later" went plat in its first week).
