Nicki Minaj Officially Becomes The Woman With The Most Hot 100 Hits

After weeks of inching closer and closer to claiming the top prize, Nicki Minaj has finally passed the one person standing between her and the No. 1 spot when it comes to females with the most Hot 100 hits. As of this week, Minaj has placed an incredible 76 different songs with her name attached to them onto the all-encompassing singles tally, and she still has plenty of successful songs in her future.

Minaj tied Aretha Franklin with 73 appearances earlier this month, but his week she charts three new tracks, moving her career total up to 76. Her three new songs were all released at the same time, but there is clearly one that stands out from the rest. “No Frauds,” which features verses by Drake and Lil Wayne, begins at No. 14, signifying it as a serious hit right out of the gate. With any luck, it could bounce into the top 10 in the coming weeks, which would give her and her friends another massive hit.

Behind “Frauds” comes the poppier “Regret In Your Tears,” which sees Minaj handling the entire track on her own. That song begins at No. 61, followed by “Changed It,” which also features Lil Wayne, at No. 71.

While all three of these new cuts are fronted by Minaj, the majority of her Hot 100 appearances are led by other acts, but they feature the female rapper add a verse or contribute to the chorus in some way, and thus it counts towards her total. That practice is fairly new to the music industry, and it certainly didn’t exist when Aretha Franklin was charting most of her hits. In fact, all 73 of Franklin’s appearances see her as the lead vocalist.

Minaj’s career total will only continue to rise, as she charts featured cuts quite often, and she has a new album on the way, and it’s only a matter of time before she hits 80, 90 and then 100 Hot 100 appearances. Next up to beat Aretha Franklin is Taylor Swift, who is only three songs away from matching the soulful legend.

The bestselling female rapper of all time is now in ninth place among all artists, behind notable men and groups like the cast of Glee, Jay Z, Drake, and Lile Wayne, who continues to hold onto to top spot among solo acts with an amazing 133 tracks.
