Nicki Minaj’s ‘Pink Friday 2’ Makes History as the most Successful tour by a Female Rapper

Nicki Minaj has once again etched her name in the annals of music history, leading the most successful tour by a female rapper in a mere 20 shows. As per Touring Data, her Pink Friday 2 global tour amassed an unprecedented $34.9 million from 220,000 tickets sold in its first 17 shows. This extraordinary accomplishment not only underscores Minaj’s repertoire of hits but also solidifies her enduring influence in the music industry, a testament to her staying power over a decade and a half since her debut.

Nicki took her Instagram to express her gratitude to the Barbz for their unwavering love and support. “I never in my wildest dreams thought this tour would be my most successful…I just will always be thankful.” 

Minaj’s longevity has been a topic of much discussion recently, and her latest milestone only adds to her legacy. Not only did she claim the highest-grossing tour by a female rapper, but she also secured the highest-grossing concert. Touring Data reports that Minaj’s Madison Square Garden show on March 30, 2024, grossed an astonishing $2.858 million, the biggest of any shows on her current tour. 

From the moment the tickets were available, anticipation for the PF2 tour reached a fever pitch. True to form, Minaj delivered electrifying performances that were a testament to her trademark energy, dynamic choreography, and impressive stage production. 

From her chart-topping hits to her beloved classics, Minaj’s shows have left audiences spellbound. Fans have flooded social media with excitement and gratitude for being part of Minaj’s historic shows, wishing to express that they will cherish these moments for life. 

The triumph of Minaj’s tour is a natural progression, given the success of her recent album. 

Pink Friday 2 has set records and marked significant milestones in Minaj’s career. It recorded the highest first-week vinyl sales by a female rapper in History and secured her third number-one album. Furthermore, Pink Friday 2 delivered Minaj’s first solo #1 single, “Super Freaky Girl.” 

The PF2 tour will continue its journey across the United States, making stops in cities like Brooklyn, Texas, and Chicago, before concluding on June 14 in Belgium.

With such record-breaking achievements, it’s undoubtedly an excellent time to be a Barbz fan. All Onika Tanya Maraj Petty does is win, win, win, no matter what!
