Nicki Minaj’s current tour has created history.
She now holds the record for the highest-earning tour in the history of female rappers.
The US-based Trinidadian hip-hop artist also broke the record for the highest-grossing concert by a female rapper in history on March 30, 2024, at Madison Square Garden in New York, taking home $2.858 million, according to American statistic business Touring Data.
With 220,000 tickets sold over its first 17 gigs, her “Pink Friday 2” tour has officially become the most profitable tour by a female rapper, earning $34.9 million.
“@NICKIMINAJ’s ‘Pink Friday 2’ officially becomes the most successful tour by a female rapper in history, with $34.9 million from 220,000 tickets sold in its first 17 shows,” Touring Data tweeted.
Just 30% of the trip brought her $34.9 million. By the time the tour ends later this year, she should have made $100 million in revenue.
Remember how the “Queen of Rap” expressed her willingness to consider adding Nigeria to her “Pinky Friday 2” tour if enough fans expressed interest? This was in response to a Nigerian fan who expressed disapproval over the absence of Africa from the “Queen of Rap’s” world tour dates.
