Anything Nicki Minaj does is pretty much guaranteed to do well. This week, her newest single, the Drake, Lil Wayne & Chris Brown-assisted "Only," takes the #1 spot on the hip-hop and R&B singles charts. It sold over 75,000 copies and certainly won't be slowing down as The Pinkprint is due out December 15. "Anaconda" bookends the top ten for Minaj with 31,000 sold, putting that track at over 1.2 million moved.
The top 10 list can be found below, featuring Big Sean, Iggy Azalea, Flo-Rida, ILOVEMAKONNEN and more. Thanks to Halloween, Michael Jackson's "Thriller" sold 39,000 copies and made it onto the list, too.
