Nicki Minaj has been achieving feat after feat, with her latest becoming the first female rapper to hit one billion streams in 2024.
The Juice Pop reported the news on Wednesday (February 28). A bulk of the streams are likely credited to 2023’s Pink Friday 2 and its two lead singles, “FTCU” and “Everybody” with Lil Uzi Vert.
The news arrives just days after Minaj surpassed JAY-Z to become the sixth longest-charting rapper of all time.
ChartData reported Thursday (February 22) that the Queens native’s music has charted for 1,945 cumulative weeks on the Billboard Hot 100 and Billboard 200. These statistics were also confirmed by Billboard.
Only Drake, Lil Wayne, Eminem, Kanye West, and Future have more consecutive chart placements, and Minaj is the longest-charting female rapper on the list.
Earlier this year, Pink Friday 2 also became the fastest album by a female rapper to surpass one billion streams on Spotify.
