Still, Fancy + Black Widow > anything from TPP era, commercially. TPP had just as many singles, less big hits.

Anaconda, Starships, and Superb Ass featured no one

And Only featured 3 BIG names, 4 counting Nicki. Truffle Butter featured 3 big names. They contributed to the songs being hits.
Black Widow featured Rita Ora, she isn't big. Fancy featured Charli XCX, she wasn't big at that time. Beg For It featured MO, she was unkown.

Here's the tea. Nicki relying on others' relevancy while Iggy helps new artists get a taste of the mainstream success.

Anaconda was a smash and anyone that says otherwise doesn't know their music or is pressed



There's more to a smash than just sales

Only because Ester Dean, Mohombi and Sir Mix-a-Lot were uncredited.

I do respect Iggy's features tbh. People always come for her for having no solo hits (they're forgetting Work ofc), but she hasn't collaborated with any household names or relevant people on her singles. Jennifer Hudson also FLOPPED in 2014 with her album selling like 15k with major promo, but Iggy put her on the track regardless

Anaconda had a very controversial video.
Starships is just a pure pop song.
And doesn't Ester Dean sing Super Bass' chorus?

There's more to a smash than just a chart peak and being cute for a hot minute.

Talk to me when Iggy has her own hit, or any form of longevity, acclaim, impact in hip hop, etc

Right, it had 2 million sales and hundreds of millions of views. It was one of the biggest pop culture events of 2014

The only REALLY known name in TNC is T.I. and well, Charli after Fancy, while TPP has Beyoncé, Ariana Grande, Chris Brown, Lil Wayne, Drake, Jeremih...

Platinum in the US without being a single or receiving radio adds, VEVO certified, gold in Australia and Canada and a top 20 hit in the UK

Super Bass sold 5m and Starships sold 4.5m. 2m ain't that much for a song that outpeaked both of those other songs.

And kinda but she was still overshadowed by Fancy, Problem, Bang Bang, All About That Bass and Shake It Off/Blank Space.
