Nicki Minaj
Makes Billboard history !
& Is considered to be the next Lady Gaga!
Nicki Minaj was pictured outside of Regis & Kelly earlier this week with a fan. According to Rap Radar, she has just made Billboard History.
A few months back, Nicki Minaj scored her first Billboard number one. Now, she has become the first female rapper with the most entries on Billboard’s 100. The seven entries are listed as Nielsen Soundscan’s 200 best-selling songs of 2010 with, so far, a total of 4,298,000 in sales:
The entries consists of her single “Your Love” (755k) as well as her guest features including Luda’s “My Chick Bad” (1,246,000), Lil Wayne’s “Knockout” (519k), Trey Songz’ “Bottoms Up” (518k), Usher’s “Lil Freak” (508k), Sean Kingston’s “Letting Go (Dutty Love)” (377k), and Jay Sean’s “It Ain’t The End” (355k).
Not bad for a rookie. Nicki’s debut album, Pink Friday drops November 23rd.
She’s going Hard and also following in Lil Wayne’s footsteps. I believe it was 2008 when he was featured on every hot record that was out..
Minaj was pegged
“the next Lady Gaga” by Regis and Kelly during her recent visit to the “Regis & Kelly” show. During her brief appearance, she performed “Check It Out” with Black Eyed Peas front man Will.I.Am.
In other news, Rihanna has confirmed that Nicki Minaj will be featured on her new album “Loud”.
Rihanna says
"She has a great buzz and she has a thing to her. She is a star and that’s why people love her. She’s also really entertaining with her visual as well as her lyrics and she has great melody. I’m really amazed that she can write like that. Not only raps but she can write songs too. You know I worked with her before on Rated R and she was just writing me some really good ballads and I couldn’t wait to work with her again and then have her on my record. It’s a really fun song. It’s called ‘Raining Men’. No, nothing like the original. It’s quite up-tempo but kind of quirky and funny."
