\t\t\t\t\tThese 25 Rappers Are the Top-Grossing Hip-Hop Touring Acts of All\u00a0Time\t\t<\/p>\n<\/h3><\/div>\n

\t\t<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div><\/div>\n

\n\tMinaj launched the tour on March 1 in Oakland, Calif., bringing in $2.3 million from 14,000 tickets. That was the first of 34 shows in American and Canadian arenas, before closing up on May 13 in Oklahoma City.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe Pink Friday 2 routing included four double-headers, providing $3 million-plus grosses in Atlanta, Boston, Brooklyn, Chicago and Toronto. Two nights at Brooklyn\u2019s Barclays Center on April 4 and May 1 proved the biggest, with $4.3 million and 28,100 tickets.<\/p>\n

\n\tIn addition to her two Brooklyn plays, Minaj also performed at Manhattan\u2019s Madison Square Garden and the Prudential Center in New Jersey. Combined, those four NYC-area shows brought in $9.3 million and sold more than 54,000 tickets, with the MSG show claiming honors as the single highest grossing show of the tour so far.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe Pink Friday 2 World Tour was tracking to become Minaj\u2019s biggest from opening night. Throughout the 34-date North American leg, the trek averaged just under $2 million and 13,000 per night. That\u2019s nearly triple the pace of 2012\u2019s Pink Friday: Reoloaded Tour ($776,000) and 2015-16\u2019s The Pinkprint Tour ($657,000).<\/p>\n

\n\tIn November, Billboard<\/em> published a list of the highest grossing rap artists of all time<\/a>, with Minaj as the only woman at No. 20. With updated grosses from the Pink Friday 2 World Tour, she climbs to No. 11.<\/p>\n

\n\tStill, Minaj\u2019s record-setting trek arrives amid a particularly fruitful time for rap tours, and especially so among women. The Pink Friday 2 World Tour re-writes a record set by Doja Cat<\/a> just five months ago, when The Scarlet Tour became the top rap tour among women acts with $37.3 million in the bank. Earlier this week, Megan Thee Stallion<\/a> kicked off an arena tour of her own, launching the Hot Girl Summer Tour in Minneapolis. And in July, Missy Elliott<\/a> \u2013 the first woman in hip-hop to be inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame \u2013 will set out on the Out of this World: The Missy Elliott Experience Tour. It will be her first headlining tour in a pioneering career that spans almost 30 years.<\/p>\n

\n\tThe Pink Friday 2 World Tour isn\u2019t done bringing in business yet. Minaj will kickstart the tour\u2019s European leg next week, with a show at Ziggo Dome in Amsterdam on May 23. In addition to a bevy of festival shows, she\u2019ll play 15 headline dates that could add another $10 million to $20 million to the tour\u2019s record-setting total. At $93.9 million and 911,000 in reported career grosses and attendance, it\u2019ll all but certainly put Minaj over $100 million and 1 million tickets.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
