    She got really close but it didn't happen. She's #3 this week but she's still moving units. I still think Double is out of reach but shockingly she's on pace to pass "Thank Me Later" which will be very shocking since Drake in my view had way more buzz than she did.

    Nicki Minaj crowns the Billboard 200 albums chart for the first time, as her "Pink Friday" set steps 3-1 in its 11th week on the list (45,000; up 18% per Nielsen SoundScan). "Pink" also pushes past the 1 million total sales mark this week --1,035,000 total since its Nov. 22, 2010 release.

    "Pink Friday" initially debuted at No. 2 and has since spent its entire chart life in the top 10.

    Minaj's patient wait for her turn at No. 1 is a rare sight. For the most part, an album is only No. 1 because it debuted there. It's unusual for a set to climb to the top. Case in point: in 2010, there were 30 albums that hit No. 1, but just one --Lil Wayne's "I Am Not A Human Being" --actually rose to the top. Wayne debuted at No. 2 off of just downloads, then fell to No. 16 the next week, only to reach No. 1 the next once the CD version of the album dropped.

    Before "Friday's" ascent to the top, the last album to take longer to rise to No. 1 was way back on the chart dated March 5, 2005, when Ray Charles' "Genius Loves Company" finally hit No. 1 in its 25th week. It zoomed 15-1 with 224,000 (up 202%) following its Grammy win for album of the year.

    Minaj's 18% sales gain could be attributed to sustained impact from her "Saturday Night Live" guest turn on Jan. 30, in addition to some surprising viral love from confessed fans Taylor Swift and Selena Gomez. The latter ladies can be found --separately --on YouTube rapping to the "Pink Friday" cut "Super Bass." The two most popular clips have racked up more than 2 million views in the five days they've been online.

    Pink Friday is only the third album by a female hip-hop star to reach #1, following a pair of 1999 albums: Foxy Brown's Chyna Doll and Eve's Ruff Ryders' First Lady. (It's the fourth if you count Lauryn Hill's 1998 blockbuster The Miseducation Of Lauryn Hill, which straddled the line between hip-hop and R&B.)

    I guess I would know because both RIAA and Soundscan say otherwise. Lol I wouldn't suggest trying to argue numbers against someone with Mediabase and partial Soundscan access, you silly ? .

    Who cares if she's the only one rapping? The point is she's doing things and breaking records in 2 years that Kim wasn't able to do her entire 16 year career. So why even bring Kim up? :(
