Renowned rapper and singer Nicki Minaj has achieved a groundbreaking milestone in her career, shattering records as the most successful touring female rapper in history.

According to Touring Data, an American statistical company, Minaj’s ‘Pink Friday 2’ tour has rewritten the history books, notching the highest-grossing tour by a female rapper to date. The Trinidadian hip-hop sensation also clinched the record for the highest-grossing concert by a female rapper with a staggering $2.858M at Madison Square Garden in New York on March 30, 2024.

The ‘Pink Friday 2’ tour has been nothing short of a phenomenon, amassing an impressive $34.9M in revenue from 220,000 tickets sold across its first 17 shows. With just 30 percent of the tour completed, Minaj’s earnings are poised to soar, projected to reach a monumental $100M by the tour’s conclusion later this year.

Taking to Twitter, Touring Data celebrated Minaj’s historic achievement, highlighting her unparalleled success in the realm of live performances. The rapper’s undeniable talent and widespread appeal have propelled her to the forefront of the music industry, solidifying her status as the reigning “Queen of Rap.”

In a remarkable display of her global influence, Minaj has expressed openness to including Nigeria on her ‘Pink Friday 2’ tour, contingent upon fan interest. With fans eagerly awaiting her arrival in Africa, speculation swirls regarding potential tour stops across the continent.

Minaj’s ascent to tour supremacy underscores her remarkable journey from Lil Wayne’s protege under the Young Money label to an international powerhouse in her own right. Collaborations with industry heavyweights like Drake and iconic performances have cemented her legacy as one of the most influential figures in hip-hop history. As she continues to push boundaries and break records, Nicki Minaj’s reign shows no signs of slowing down.
