When Tekashi 6ix9ine and Nicki Minaj teamed up for “FEFE,” the song wasn’t initially intended to be included on Black Barbie’s recently released Queen album.
But now the track has been added to the digital versions of the album on Apple Music, Spotify and TIDAL. However, the original version of the project still exists on the various streaming platforms.
“FEFE” is currently listed as a “Bonus Track” on Apple Music, while it’s simply added to the end of the tracklist on Spotify and TIDAL.
It’s possible Minaj is trying to secure the No. 1 spot on the Billboard 200 chart by adding the song.
“FEFE” was released on July 22 and debuted on the Hot 100 at No. 4. According to a tweet from Chart Data, the song is now eligible for platinum status.

n a since-deleted Instagram post, 6ix9ine celebrated the achievement, albeit a bit prematurely.
“Ima just leave this here,” 6ix9ine captioned a photo announcing the certification. “BY THE WAY LETS NOT FORGET ‼‼ I HAVE GUMMO, KOODA, KEKE, BILLY, DAY69 PROJECT ALLLLLLL THERE AS WELL BY MYSELF. DICKKKKKRIDERRRRSSSSSS.”
HITS Daily Double reports Queen is expected to move 145,000 total album equivalent units in its first week with 56,000 to 61,000 of those being pure album sales.
