"Long Way 2 Go" was a hit. It was #12 in the UK and charted inside the BB 100 and several other countries (relevant hit in Europe). "Is It You" was also a moderate hit in the UK and Canada because of "Step Up 2" (which means it also charted there).
"Official Girl" debuted at number one on the U.S. Billboard Hot Videoclip Tracks chart, becoming the first ever to do so.
"Must Be Love" was a regular rhythmic radio hit, flopped on single sales but airplay made it chart around the 50's in Billboard's R&B/Hip-Hop chart.
"Roc Boys" that features her vocals also charted in the BB Hot 100 and "Addiction" was #35 on US BB R&B.
Not to mention her only album so far peaked at #4 in the US and sold over 100k copies in the first week.
"King of Hearts" was not a hit but all the top DJ's remixed it & the song got amazing reviews from places like The Guardian to Pitchfork.
"The Boys" is still charting and was actually #50 on US BB R&B. Plus all the hype around it because it was Nicki's first single of her #1 album re-release & the video reception (#9 on YouTube 100 1st week) made it a viral hit.
She may not have a career full of smash hits (like "Me & U" but that was one of the biggest songs of 2006) but for a regular artist (which is not the likes of Rihanna or Katy Perry) who doesn't even bother to promote she has quite a few successful tracks.
