This act by the Barbz is just another way of exhibiting their love and support to the queen. As they have done it again with “Shanghai” by making it the bestseller for the week.
“Shanghai” was originally released by Nicki Minaj under the album “The PinkPrint” in 2024. Shanghai is more than a decade old in the music system .
But the Barbz as they traditionally do , for reasons best known to them have made the single the bestseller and also ranked No.8 on Top 10 smash on Billboard.
“Shanghai” in the year of its original release did not make it to the Billboard Chart nor became a commercial success.
However ,”Shanghai”stands as the second highest ranking R&B/Hip hop Digital song sales . “Not Like Us” by Kendrick Lamar owns the tally as the No.1.
