My problem with SYG is that so many of the members there stan solely for success over quality. It's hard to have a genuine discussion with them sometimes.

Like the BansheeL stan who called Kate Bush and Nina Simone forgotten flops or something.

If it wasn't for heavy reliance on features, Nicki's career would have ended in 2012 after the massive backlash from her core audience and you wouldn't be able to use the longevity card. Her 500 urban features in 2013, as well as Drake and Lil Wayne are the main reason why the Pink Print era was decently big (only in the US)

Super Bass
Anaconda
Starships

her 3 biggest hits all with no features. Iggy only has hits with features. IDK why this is so hard for you to understand

ddd Jackson, Nicki is the queen of features. This has been known. Doesn't she have the most Hot 100 entries for a female or something, and the majority of them are features?

But I don't think Hey Mama vs. Pretty Girls is fair. I mean, David Guetta has had Dangerous, Bad, Lovers On The Sun, etc. before Hey Mama. And Britney has had Britney Jean

Bebe Rexha and David Guetta their impact

This is the exact equivalent of saying "Rita and MO their impact"

Super Bass - Ester Dean
Anaconda - the catchiest part is sang by Sir Mix-A-Lot

exactly. All of those were flops in the US. BJ had a bigger hit than anything from Guetta's album in the US

Let's not compare Rita and MO to David Guetta.

but she isn't reliant on them, as is easily shown by the fact that her biggest hits are solo

Rita is big and respected here (for some bizarre reason) so that definitely had some part to play in BW doing well here.

No, cause David is HUGE everywhere except for the US. Rita was only big in the UK and NØ was big nowhere

Guetta hasn't had a hit in the US since 2012

Britney has long been one of the biggest names in pop music and her lead singles always get some type of buzz. I'm not saying anything about Iggy vs. Nicki here in this situation; I just don't think you can base Iggy's current popularity on Pretty Girls is all I'm saying.

To be fair, Iggy has seen more success as of late than Britney. Criminal flopped as far back as 2011, S&S was a hit but was only a feature. WB couldn't crack Top 10, Perfume tanked, Britney Jean also tanked.

Meanwhile Work was a bigger hit than Perfume despite not being promoted in the US, she had Fancy, Black Widow and Problem (feature like S&S, cancels out), and Beg For It was a Top 30 hit. I think they're kinda equal on the song.

David is huge, though... He has some pretty huge hits under his belt.

The USA isn't the only country in the world. Dangerous and Lovers On The Sun were HUGE.

Dangerous, Lovers On The Sun, Titanium, Play Hard, Sexy Bitch, Turn Me On, She Wolf, Without You, Where Them Girls At, When Love Takes Over, Who's That Chick?, etc.

Not Jackson calling us delusional, then comparing MØ and Rita's success to David Guetta.

I literally had no idea that he even produced it until I just looked it up, and the GP certainly doesn't know that either

And no one cares about DJ's/producers in a song. Just look at UF, poor Mark
