Nicki Minaj Earns Top Spot On Billboard Charts

    Young Money artist Nicki Minaj has been receiving her share of props and acknowledgement recently. Since Sunday’s BET Awards where she won both the Best Female Hip Hop Artist and Best New Artist awards, she has now made Billboard history with her track “Your Love.”

    The song, which features a sample from 90s pop singer Annie Lennox, is the first single from a female emcee to hit the top of the Rap charts since Missy Elliot’s “Work It” in 2002. In 2003, Lil Kim’s “Magic Stick” also reached No. 1, however the song featured fellow rapper 50 Cent.

    Minaj said via Twitter, “Thank you for making ‘Your Love’ the #1 Rap song in the country.” Her album, according to colleague Birdman, is set to release sometime this year.

    1. Nicki Minaj Earns Top Spot On Billboard Charts

      So the end of hip hop is coming. Terrible song, where’s Jean Grae when u need her????

      1. U know what term is played out, hater. That’s the best reply from the Nicki fans? U couldn’t recite any classic lines from her song?

      1. smack yourself… no way shes the best female mc ever… but then again, your probably reppin drake as best rapper ever.. smh

      2. ^^^^

        Lauryn Hill??? really??? its not 1996 anymore son.

        stop playing the Lauryn Hill card. the bitch had two popular albums and one of them she was a third of the group.

      3. for real, enough with the Lauryn Hill bullshit. She hasn’t done anything in a decade.

      4. lauryn may not be active right now but the miseducation shits all over anything nicki could ever do with her tourette’s havin’ ass. nicki uses the voices and wigs to mask the fact that she doesn’t say a damn thing in ANY of her raps. ever. she’s a gimmick, corny as fuck, and anybody that likes her should just go kill themselves.

      5. She aint nothing but a female “milli vanilli”. Did you see the BET award show?? Lip syncing bitch! And its always the same with her. Shaking around like she’s having a seizure! BIG TIME JOKE! And for there sake,They better have cleared that sample. You know there track record!

      6. Nicki keep putting out the same songs, same videos, same dumb ass faces, only different colored wigs. LIP SYNCIN ASS BITCH.

        NICKI MINAJ AINT NO REAL MC

    2. epic fail…im not hating but ur saying her song is bettter than any of eminem’s. drake’s, or even nas and damian’s songs??

    3. i heard this chick for the first time like a month ago for real(im late i know)and i dont see whats all the hype.

    4. Life is so lonely. Are you looking for wealthy men and sexy women for relationship or marriage?

      but does it surprise anyone?
      we have become an ignorant society!

    6. DJ no name nikki hasnt even had a album yet stop dickeating damn and that song really aint dat good but congratz 2 her i guess smh were are all da other female rappers at nikki only poppin now cause theres no other female rappers out

    7. and da police said she’s really the best female raper u must be inbetween da ages of 11-16 saying something like dat i guess u havent heard of eve,kim,foxy,mia x and lauryn but once again sorry 2 say nikki is poppin rite now congratz 2 her i guess

    8. your love on the radio?,wow i didnt no that cause i dont listen to the radio, too many wack rappers they play,Gucci,plies,etc, but congrats Nicki, she like one of the rappers these dayz that got talent, she fine,she can sing and rap.

    9. how long before young money gets sued for not getting authorization to use this sample? soon i hope

      seriously though enough with the oversampling played out songs. did diddy produce this or what? first em and wayne with that what is love shit and now this??? cant wait to hear the next one

    10. I wouldn’t be surprised if I see an article in the future about this song being sued for the Annie Lennox sample not being cleared. Young Money/Cash Money is world famous for that.

    11. did she really say “you’re like a candy store, and i’m a toddler” …….. another classic young money line right thurrrr,

    12. so glad the roots, jcole and em all have albums this yr… so glad Wu Tang, Rakim, and Lauryn Hill will be at ROck The Bells this yr…. otherwise I would be real pissed off at all the attention this fake MC is getting.

    13. youll people are blinded by the lights, she got the best female artist cuz she the only female artist duh..who else is out ..and top rap female song.. she the only female rapper out..i like her, she has talent but she is the only female so she has to get awards..wake up people. do youll just listen to music and not think about whats actually going on..

    14. Life is so lonely. Are you looking for wealthy gay men for relationship or marriage?
      Maybe you want to check out ==== AffluentSingle.com ====. Cum check out our gaping assholes!!!

    15. Yall niggas r all just hatin. She may not be the best of all time..but so what? Why is she always bein compared to the best in the game? When Drake, eminem, lil wayne, and Jay Z get #1 hits you dont see nobody comparin them to the best rappers to ever live. DAMN give her a break and some props.

      1. I agree Nicki Minaj is dope no comparisons needed, but Jay z is the best rapper to ever live.

    16. Yeah that song is pop more than rap. Why she keep borrowing lines from Wayne? I don’t know how that song is considered rap or hip hop though.

    17. lol, all u supportaz of nickgay minaj-a-tois are prolly lesbianz or gayz. every1 on cum money are a bunch of homoz. there leader’z gonna come out wit an XXXL azzhole in 2011. dat’z how gay da crew iz.

    18. LOLLLLOOOLLL!!!!!! Look at these nerds on here getting mad at a chick doing her thang. Like it’s against the law to make pop music. Fuck Off fags, you got Relapse be happy with that.

      1. Oh I mean Recovery, whatever as long as it’s Eminem yawl be happy. Who listens to the radio anyway on here?

    24. Saw this coming. When I turned the radio on one day she was on at least 4 or 5 guest appearances on other songs (and they were ALL very wack verses, especially when you’re going pound for pound against the likes of Jadakiss, etc.). So yes, sneaking a single at this point in time would almost guarantee a No. 1 on the Billboard.

      Anyhow, Nicki Garbaj is the fakest female “emcee” I’ve ever heard since Bo$$ circa 1994. Do your homework.

    25. MENAJE TRA BITCH!!!! IMA FUCK HER AND LIL WAYNE CUTE ASS NIGGA. IM A JAIL NIGGA, A JAIL BIRD NGIGA!!!! I GETS DOWN LIKE DAT!!!

    28. Funeral services for hip hop will be held at Johnson’s Funeral Home to be laid to rest in its place of Birth on 149th St. and the Grand Concourse in the Bronx on 7/4/2010 @ 1pm

    29. Tonight on http://www.bks1tv.com we have Keke Wyatt. Amazing singer with hit songs like “Nothing in this world” ft Avant and hit new cd “Who Knew?” , which we reviewed and it received extraordinary marks. Great album!! Tune in tonight @11 pm est – 8 pm pst and hear what Keke has in the works. Call in 646-929-1530 or chat in our shout box! Ask the question you want answers to

      1. How does something like this happen you ask?

        Ask yourself…what albums have I PURCHASED this year or the year before or 3 years ago. Little kids and upper class suburbanites go and purchase all of their music. Billboard ranks albums based on how many sales a single or album has had. If more people went out and bought their favorite albums instead of downloading them or getting a cdr from a friend then the world of hip hop would look real different. Nicki Minaj has found a way to cater to those people that actually purchase music. Making “real hip hop” these days is pointless if youre trying to be a career musician cause “real hip hop” fans dont buy music.

    30. HOW DOES SOMETHING LIKE THIS HAPPEN IM NOT HATIN BUT COME ON NOW THIS CHICK GETS A NUMBER 1 SPOT AND SHE IS PURE HOT HOT GARBAGE I GUESS THE YOUNGINS THESE DAYS DICTATE WHAT SELLS

      R.I.P. HIP-HOP AT ONE POINT IN TIME YOU WERE THE BEST SHIT TO HIT THE STREETS

      RAH DIGGA COULDNT REALLY BLOW UP AND SHE IS 100 X’S BETTER THAN THIS GARBAGE CHICK AND I COULD NAME SOME MORE

      SAD SAD SAD SAD SAD DAY FOR HIP-HOP WHEN THIS KIND OF SHIT HAPPENS

      1. Rah Digga can’t fuck with this chick dude. Go and listen ti some of this chick’s freestyles. this bitch can flow period end of discussion. Rah Digga been out for years and had plenty of chances to handle biz. Nicki got flow and mad sex appeal. Rah Digga acts like a dike and has a one dimensional flow. This is no contest

      2. Wankirby – are you fuckin serious dude how old are you between 12-18 get the fuck outta here argue with your own age bracket seriously go play dj hero or something you must be fuckin retarded simple ass nigga

      3. First off son I’m 30 yrs old, so i think i’ve heard my fair share of rap in my day, secondly you jeffin for Rah Digga mighty fuckin hard son. Can u name me 10 good Rah Digga songs? i think not. Do you have a Rah Digga CD in your collection? i think not. Do you have a plethora of Rah Digga songs in your iPod? I think not.

        I personally don’t have neither of these bitches in my rotation and could care less if they sold even one album, but i can tell u this: Nicki is 1,000,000x sexier, has a better voice, and delivery than Dike Digga. Nicki has more wit and funnier punch lines than Dike Digga. And if your bitch ass would open up your fuckin ear holes and listen to the bitch instead of hating the bitch just cause she signed with Lil Wayne, ur faggot ass would see that too

      4. The song is hotttttt trash. its because of her looks and she attracts youngins.im 25 and i think Hip-Hop is on life support

    31. Lol, when all the competition is laid out, it’s easy to be #1, not hating on Young money, but look at this playlist on Hot 97,

      http://www.hot97.com/BroadcastHistory.aspx

      cmon, The Roots album and mad other albums is out and no spins whatsoever, all of Young Money’s comp ain’t even getting a chance to be heard. At leats 6 of those songs on the playlist is nothing but Young Money artists. Payola is in full effect and B.E.T. has been bogus for years now.

      1. wow they on drakes dick majorly, they playing that over song like every hour and it is old as fuck

    32. Nicki ain’t damn near the best femce out there but she’s the only female… Well american female emce doing anthing right now. I know eve is supposed to be coming out with that lip lock album but that shit is takeing to long to come out. And damn what happens to Missy Eliot?! Wiki said she was supposed to come out with a new album this year like what the fuck do somethin. I know people move on in life and they can’t be in music forever… But this is retarded all you hiphop heads complain about nicki but your only doing that cuz there ain’t no other women out right now. I like nicki but even I can’t tell she ain’t no great rapper.. hell even kid sister got some better lines than she dose and we all know how good with liyrics she is( sarcasm ) what we need us a femce that’s got the liyrics and the pop sond all in one and who dosent have to use auto tune to sing. Intill that day come or intill miss lauryn decides to stop hiding in a cave. I’m just going to listen to some COMA-CHI! At least she keeps comin out with new shit.

    33. disagree or agree this chick is hot hot garbage plain and simple nothing she does compares to lil kim and kim is not that great of a female lyricist what the fuck this entire young generation is retarded get the commercialized dicks out ya asses

      once again r.i.p. to real hip-hop what a tragedy

      im sorry there is nothing you can say or do to convince me that this chick is nice wit it on the mic what happened to chicks like bahamadia and mother superia

    34. Hey i like nicki… but kim was better… And missy was the best… She just didnt have the sex apeal to hoe out her music the way nicki and kim do…

      1. Lot of Great female rappers over the time Mia X had lyrics, rah digga, lady of rage, eve, kim, missy, foxy brown at one point, Trina still better than Nicki, but if people ain’t hating on you you ain’t doing something right, and I know you all heard keys go hard on Nicki. Hip Hop ain’t dead …. if it was you wouldn’t be on a hip-hop web site right now, our shit is international

    35. all female MCs = garbage.

      Their lyrical content is either going to deal with things i don’t want to hear about (like spending all of a man’s money) or they’re are going to rap about the same things as a male MC and its going to come across as false.

      1. co sign… except for Lauryn Hill. L Boogie is a goddess and is the best female EMC to ever do it.

      2. While most female emcees are wack, I wouldn’t say everyone is. Lauren Hill, Jean Grae, Lyte, Roxanne Shante, etc., are all respectable rappers.

        But yes, most of them are garbage.

      3. @nickelnine:
        I have to agree most suck, but the majority of all rap currently sucks, so its pretty much the same thing.

      4. I’d change it to most mainstream rap. There is still some very good underground hip hop.

        But I do miss the golden age of hip hop…

    36. Hey I like Nicki, Are you looking for NSA or serious relationship with REAL cougars. Or maybe find a sugarmomma who can pay all your needs?
      ==::[ C_o_u_g_a_r_a_ @ C.//0.//M ] ::== is dedicate to get REAL cougars, sugarmommas and cubs find each other. Keep it real please!!

    37. Lil’ Kim can’t doesn’t even know who she is as a person, let alone an artist. She’s feeling herself because for some reason JayZ signed her to a deal. Kim is a use to be, had been. It’s over. And Nikki is getting her little shine now but trust and believe it won’t last long because she’s not that good and her weird tactics are just hilarious. Please will a real artist come in and take over….

      1. Agreed. Everytime an album like HIGO or Distant Relatives comes out that makes me think real hip hop is making a comeback, bullshit news like this comes out.

        Ftr, I have nothing against Nicki personally. I just cannot stand her music.

    38. IF YOU THINK NIKKIA FKN GARBAGE(YES I STOLE THIS FROM OTHER POSTERS CUZ IT MAKES ABSOLUTE FKN SENSE) IS GOOD THEN YO PROLLY JUST SMOKED 5 BLUNTS TO THE FACE AND EVEN THEN YOU GOTTA JUST BE PLAIN FKN STUPID TO THINK THIS IS ANYWHERE EVEN REMOTELY GOOD. IF THIS IS THE WAY SOCIETY IS HEADED THEN I WANNA FKN HUDDLE IN A CORNER AND CRY FOR HOURS HONESTLY PPL USE YOUR FKN BRAIN, DO SOME FKN HOMEWORK AND LISTEN TO MUSIC FROM THE PAST THAT WAS ACTUALLY FKN MUSIC,YOU CANNOT CALL THIS GARBAGE ASS SHIT MUSIC. 95% OF “MUSIC” ON THE RADIO IS FKN STRAIGHT GARBAGE NO QUESTION, MOST DAYS I RATHER DRIVE IN SILENCE.
