Lil Wayne and Nicki Minaj's Albums Go Platinum the Same Day

Lil Wayne and Nicki Minaj's
Albums Go Platinum the Same Day Wayne's album, 'Tha Carter V,' debuted
at No.1 on the 'Billboard' 200 when it was released. It marked his fourth album
to reach the No. 1 spot. Minaj's album, 'Queen,' debuted
at No. 2 on the same chart but was never able to claim the top spot due to Travis Scott's 'Astroworld.' The album still managed
to reach Gold status
in less than a month. On Friday, both Wayne's and Minaj's albums were certified platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA), giving Young Money,
Wayne's label, a reason to celebrate. Minaj is also poised to possibly
become the first female rapper
to ever sell 100 million units.
