It earned over 228,000 album-equivalent units in its first week, with 92,000 coming from pure album sales, and achieved the largest vinyl sales week by a female rapper in history. Internationally, the album peaked in the top ten in Australia, Canada, Netherlands, Ireland, New Zealand, Norway, Switzerland, France, Germany, Japan and the United Kingdom. The album received generally positive reviews from critics, who praised Minaj's consistency and innovation, but felt it was too long.

Pink Friday 2 was supported by five singles, "Super Freaky Girl", "Red Ruby da Sleeze", "Last Time I Saw You", "Everybody" featuring Lil Uzi Vert, and "FTCU". The platinum-certified lead single "Super Freaky Girl" marked Minaj's first solo number-one on the US Billboard Hot 100, while all singles peaked within the top 25. To promote the album, Minaj will embark on the Pink Friday 2 World Tour in March 2024.
