Nicki just can’t stop winning. The Queen of Rap has yet another record-breaking achievement to list among her endless accomplishments. This time, Nicki has surpassed her fellow Young Money rapper, Drake. According to Chart Data, she now holds the record for the most No.1 hits on the Digital Song Sales chart by a rapper. Nicki has a total of 14, passing up Drake’s previous record of 13. She achieved this with her recent collaboration with Ice Spice, “Princess Diana.” The track just hit the top spot on the chart, reminding people that Nicki’s prowess remains unmatched to this day.
The song is a remix of a single from Ice Spice’s EP that was released earlier this month. It is currently at No.4 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, an achievement in and of itself. This accomplishment also adds to her existing record as the female rapper with the most Top 10 hits on the Hot 100 chart. Nicki also just recently scored her first solo number one on the Hot 100 chart with “Red Ruby Da Sneeze.” It should be noted that this is almost impossible for most artists to pull off at Nicki’s stage in their career. It just goes to show that she’s the Queen for a reason.
Nicki: The Generous Queen
Even given the fact that Nicki seems to be gearing up for her follow up to Queen, she isn’t being selfish with her features. In fact, she’s been on quite a few big songs recently. Before she jumped on Ice Spice’s “Princess Diana,” Nicki lent a helping hand to NBA Youngboy. The Queen laid down a verse on the prolific rapper’s single “WTF.” Then, just one week after “Princess Diana” dropped, Kim Petras released her single, “Alone,” which also features Nicki. It seems like she’s really living up to her lyrics on “No Frauds,” her 2017 single. “I would’ve helped you out that pit you fell in,” she raps on the track. “I am the generous Queen! Ask Ms. Ellen.”
For now, the Queen can rest easy knowing that her generosity is helping the up and coming rappers of today. Ice Spice took to Twitter to celebrate their high-charting new collab. “So proud of ‘Princess Diana’ with Nicki like my dream collab really came true. I can die happy now.” Nicki responded in turn, pointing out that Ice Spice has two singles in the Top 10. “Y’ALL!!!!! Two songs in the TOP 10 is crazy!!!!! Congratulations!!! Princesssssss,” she tweeted. What do you think of Nicki’s collab with Ice Spice? Are you excited for more music from the Queen?Let us know in the comments!
