Lil Kim may have turned ‘insert flattering age here’ today, but it seems she isn’t the only Rap diva with cause to celebrate.
Indeed, in what might put a dampener on her celebrations, today saw her brief acquaintance / long time wig snatcher Nicki Minaj extend her lead as Rap’s reigning chart Queen- landing herself in US Chart history books.
Want to know what she’s done now?
Find out below…
As of this week, her Red One produced ‘Starships‘ has spent a total of 21 consecutive weeks in the US Top Ten.
This now marks the most consecutive weeks a cut has spent in the Top Ten since its arrival in Billboard history, outperforming the ‘Black Eyed Peas’ smash hit ‘I Gotta Feeling‘ which enjoyed a total of 20 weeks in 2009.
Minaj’s phenomenal news lands three days after she faced false accusations in the United Kingdom.
Accusations, which saw her face the blame for pushing a British festival worker into a pool of mud when he allegedly “wouldn’t move out of her way” at T In The Park.
It was later reported that it was the her bodyguard and not the Rapper herself who committed the act.
However, all of this this is yet to be confirmed.

This has nothing to do with Kim. After all when I heard “Starships” I thought it was a pop song made to “fit in” with the euro pop played on radio. Good for Nicki that her assimilation helped her get a hit but this has nothing to do with Kim.

They sure did not! They spent 14 weeks at number one. 20 weeks overall in the top ten. Plus Boom Boom Pow was at number one before I Gotta Feeling hit the charts. Get your facts straight! The longest running number one in Billboard History spent 16 weeks at number one. NOT 20…
Anyway…Nicki Minaj’s feat is a VERY VALID accomplishment because for her to spend 21 WEEKS in the Top Ten WITHOUT even having her song hit number one is nearly impossible! Every other song that spend 15+ weeks in the top ten have hit number one (i.e. I Gotta Feeling, One Sweet Day, California Gurls, etc.). So for her to break their records without the number one single is BEYOND Magnificent.
So y’all can diss her and try to take her joy all y’all want, but she has made history none the less…Another record for TeamMinaj!

THIS BITCH is FAKE. She sold out of her hip hop roots and started making “POP TART” SONGS SO THAT SHE COULD “BREAK RECORDS” AND BE RELEVANT.
Think about the message this bitch is sending to young girl. Her entire OUTWARD APPEARANCE IS PROOF THAT SHE HAS NO SELF ESTEEM. Any time you go to a doctor and change EVERYTHING ABOUT YOURSELF you are showing that you think you are a piece of shit.

But many in the industry have already said labels pay for radio play, so how is that different for them to pay iTunes?? These businessmen who run these labels aren’t really music lover’s (some like LA Reid are the exception) and they also are very knowledgeable in psychology and human behavior. Now if you see a celebrity for example buy a specific type of Nike, and you see that shoe over and over again in magazines, tv ads, other celebs etc. People are more inclined to purchase them. Same with music, you see an artist enough, their videos and their music constantly high on the charts, people are more inclined to listen and purchase to have the “latest” hit song. Kids are the easiest to target so these ADULT clowns (literally) i.e. Nicki Minaj, Katy Perry, Lady Gaga try to appease their audience through their image and “4 word” chorus lyrics. I’m sorry but nothing about this industry is real including “news” like this..

Lmao. U stupid bitch. RedOne is not Gaga’s producer, it’s like saying David Guetta is Nicki’s employee just because he collabed with her in her song. No #1 singles? Super Bass was #1. And 2 #1 albums. PF:RR already went PLATINUM. U are not hip to Nicki… It already sold more than 1M copies! And which Rihanna beat? Nicki broke more records than any other artist. Many people hate Nicki Minaj, but she’s the best!

Why can’t you foold keep Kim’s name out of your mouth’s? It’s very clear ,by the over saturation of Kim’s name in every article about Nicki, that Kim is important in the success of Nicki’s brand. Thanking GOD ALMIGHTY i don’t have a daughter! These little girls will follow anything these days.

OK I think it’s enough with the Lil’ Kim hate, I may like Nicki Minaj and I respect her swag but if we were being honest, the only reason she is hip hop’s baddest bitch is because there is no one else to compete with her right now in the market. If there was competition, that lace-front would have been snatched.
Having said that, congrats to Nicki for starships but you don’t have to bring Lil’ Kim down to promote Nicki, Lil’ Kim was the baddest bitch in her day when there was competition from Eve, Foxy Brown, Da Brat…etc, let’s respect her swag.

The joke is on you, Kim didn’t have to lie about her age like 30 yr old Nicki. Kim was born in 1975 or 76.
The police report that Nicki filed against her boyfriend states that Nicki will be joining Kim age bracket this year.

PF plat with like three hits out of 8 singles (one pop, the other thanks to Queen Rihanna and Drake).
PFRR struggling to sell with 1 hit (a pop song) and she’s releasing another pop song to support her flopping album. It ain’t even plat.
Her first album was met with decent reviews and her last album received mixed reviews (hardly acclaimed, she ain’t Adele).
Ice age 4? Ummm k. LOL
Sold out shows. She’s isn’t doing Rhi and Bey’s stadiums. Only like 5k capacity and theater venues.
Mac, good for her. So have so many others including Kim.
Cleveland show? LMAOOOOO
Sorry, but this isn’t impressive. Especially since half can be associated with YMCMB getting her gigs and sales by paying lots of dough (not sayin it’s true, but I aint sayin it isn’t true)
When she becomes a multiplatinum, Grammy winning star like Queen Rihanna, then we’ll see.

In case anyone was wondering this is really BILLBOARD news and not another one of ThatGrapeJuice attempt to make Nicki sound like a goddess.
Here is the billboard cover story:
