Say what? ‘Say So,’ the disco-tinged tune from Doja Cat, has pounced to #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 thanks to a little help from Rap Queen Nicki Minaj.
Details await inside:
In one of the most exciting Hot 100 battles in recent memory, Cat has outpaced the Megan Thee Stallion hit – ‘Savage’ – in the race to #1. The latter, thanks to an assist from Beyoncé on the song’s remix, enjoyed a massive sales and streaming boost that pushed it to the runner-up spot on the tally.
Yet, despite the hype to accompany it, their combined star-power wasn’t enough to generate a lasting lead against the potent combo of Doja and Nicki who – thanks to the combined sales of vinyl, multiple digital editions (including remixes), and strong Pop radio airplay – crossed the finish line first.
Let’s dive into the numbers. ‘Say So’:
- soared 966% in sales to 66,000 downloads
- scored 96.2 million audience impressions at radio
- achieved 30.3 million U.S. streams – up 87%
A history-making triumph, the lift to #1 marks the first time ever two female rappers occupied the spot. Similarly, it marks the first time in history two female rappers simultaneously occupied the #1 and #2 spots on the tally.
In addition to being the first chart-topper of Doja’s short career, the win comes of particular note for Minaj as tenancy at the top spot on the tally comes over 10 years after the release of her official debut single. In the time since, she’s amassed more entries on the chart than any of her female counterparts.
Now, she can add #1 song to her incomparable Hot 100 resume.

Congratulations Doja
And most importantly Queen of Rap Nicki!
Nah, the song would have hit number with or without nicki .
Wait.. so the original without Nicki hit number one. You said without Nicki it would have hit number 1 so I’m guessing the original without Nicki hit #1???
Congrats to both
The lesser girls really thought they ended the Queen. Congrats ladies❤️
The Bardi gang was found shaking
For what cardi got multiple #1 and a Grammy for best rap album all in her first go round. Nicki playing catch up and doja is finally getting recognition
🤷🏾♂️For what Cardi has three #1’s and a Grammy and her first was a SOLO number one congrats Doja and thank you for CARRYING Nikki to the top cause we all know her fans couldn’t do it with out you 🥴😉
Shaking?? You sound like a real clown! The Bardi Gang has 3 number 1 songs, the first one with no collab, and it didn’t take her almost 11 years to do so. You are bothered. We love to see it!
HaHa you mean the number #1 hit she got after her label spent massive dollars to get it all over radio and wherever else they could. If you know how the music industry works you would know Cardi owes much of her success to her label who synthetically pushes her music to the top of the charts.
Let all the non melinated gay men & becky thots come thru with hate…
S/o to the QUEEN OF MUSIC..PERIOD..
Poor megan, she underestimated doja
Beyonce is not a big draw.
Her fans make a lot of noise on twitter but they rarely stream her music
savage can still hit number one tho
But ariana and bieber are coming next week
That snitch with colourful hair is also coming next week.
You sound STUPID!!!!!!!
Doja Was Top 5 before the remix. Megan was top 15.
How is that dummy Camicky doing with the remix.
Stay out this conversation = Losers Club.
Honey we are talking about girls with number 1’s
Camila, doja and nicki all have number 1’s, where is normani?
🤣🤣🤣
Normani is on the same record label with doja but compare their careers todays.
doja got a number one song without any industry support, 272426252838 shoutouts from celebrities on Instagram and Twitter,
An organic come up
Keep the Queen’s mouth out your ratchet tramp
Congrats to Doja and Megan. But more importantly this weeks charts show how wack streaming counts are. How does Travis Scott go from #1 last week to falling out of your top 10? They need to adjust how much streaming counts bc Travis def should not have any of his #1s
Icon ish!! congratulations to them both.
1. Poor Flopyonce always being second best!!! LMAO!!!
2. Poor Flopnika needing to clinge on another female rappers hit to get one herself. The first one of her decade long career at that.
3. Congrats Doja!
Oh well. SHE GOT A NUMBER 1 BTCH!!!! AHHHHHHHH!!!!
But will she get one herself like Cardi did? Will she ever get a grammy? Will she ever not support pedôphiles? Lmao
You are just mad she has her foot on your flop faves’ necks for a while. When last was your fave in Top3 Hot100? 😂😂😂
When did your fave have multiple yet alone a single solo #1? When did your fave receive her Grammy? I’ll wait sweety LMAO
Not a -72 betting brave lmao. Piggybacking with the emphasis on piggy.
Congrats Doja & Nicki, even though it’s not an organic win.
Damn Only Frauds is in shambles. Thought he said Doja will never get a No 1 hit. Congrats to Doja.
Honey, Doja will regret putting Nicki in this song. Nicki and the barbs will forever take credit for getting this song to number 1, and it will ruin Doja. The remix sucks and so does Nicki. Good luck getting another number 1 Nicki. Why didn’t her fans get anything from the last album to number 1? Why didn’t they get megaflop to the top 10? Oh that’s right, they didn’t have a stimulus check to allot them enough money to buy it multiple times. Congrats tho. Go off. 🤣
B**** please. I could not give a damn about the old cow Nicki but I know u seething in ur apartment cause Doja who u always acreaming homophobia at got a No 1 now go in ur corner and cry about it B****.
Pedonika is fingering her puss out of joy as we speak. But she doesn’t care about charts she will tell you
Haha you mad doggie ? You mad?
Lmao Haters swinging in the air right now 🤣🤣. Watch them come on here talking all that bs.. aht, aht save it 🤚🏾. Keep that negative energy over there.
They love to try and count Nicki out. Now they all need to tour together after this C****** mess, That would be major.
congratulations doja!
Beyonce’s fans: we don’t care about charts
Lmao!!!!
Eggs on your on food stamps and welfare relying beyhive faces!!!
Congrats ladies! What a great week for music! People Focusing on the music, not drama for once! I really thought savage remix was gonna be #1 tho, It was everywhere, Even #1 for days on iTunes! But I love say so as well! Just not the remix, Either way congrats Nicki & doja!
If u think this was about the music, u are delusional
I meant the public in general. But I know say so remix going #1 wasn’t because of the music or it being better lol
Doja cat is on the same label with normani, but look at doja getting a number one song, while normani has completely been forgotten by the public.
RCA records is not the problem.
Doja=talent
Normani = no talent
Talent will always win
No amount of hype, or industry support, or celebrity cosign can help ur career if u dont have talent
Or just be like Cümila: be a good c**** sucker
You sound dumb. Doja also almost got dropped by RCA after her first album tanked. Neither of Doja’s albums debuted in the top 90 on the billboard charts. And Doja didn’t get this #1 without Nicki. Nicki is the reason this is #1. Doja won’t have anymore big hits. Maybe two more top 20’s but this is her peak lol
If they actually do a video treatment for all of Doja’s songs on Hot Pink she would very well have more top 20 hits..the other songs on her album are better than Say So
Congrats to Doja and Nicki! #1 🥳 Only SIX songs by solo women teaming up have topped the Hot 💯 in history:
Doja & Nicki – Say So
Iggy & Charli – Fancy
Rihanna & Britney – S&M
Christina, Lil Kim, Pink & Mya – Lady Marmalade
Brandy & Monica – The Boy Is Mine
Barbra & Donna – No More Tears
🤳🏽💋
Another L for Camicky the Clown
Trying to hop on the remix bandwagon and didn’t even go top 200 😂😂.
Congrats to Nicki, Megan, Bey and Doja
True talent. All with SOLO hits.
Camila= 2 number one songs
Doja= 1 number one song
Nicki = 1 number one song
Normani = dancing
Beyonce , Nicki, Megan, & Doja all love Normani. They don’t know Camicky. Normani has 3 Hot 100 hits and haven’t released an album of full EP yet.
Winners pretty girl Circle. Camicky is not invited to sit at the table. 😂😂😂😂😂
She can sit with Megan Trainer
If beyonce loves normani why didnt she collaborate with her
Instead bey collaborated with megan, cause she knows talent
Normani will never sit at the table of girls who have number 1’s.
She is a dancer
🤣
Main pop girls stats, we love to see that sh*t.
Main? 🤣
Nicki welcome to club of bad bìtches who have number 1’s
Some people cant relate
After all the industry support and celebrities co sign , that dancer’s career didnt take off.
🤣
Nicki was already bad b**** status with her millions of albums sold. Camicky will never relate.
Camicky can sit with Megan Trainer, Ashlee Simpson and Ciara.
😂😂😂😂😂
Not Ciara***** edit
Now release the sales total of the songs to really eff em up. 😂💕
.@NICKIMINAJ breaks the record for longest wait for a Hot 100 #1 hit, earning her first with her 109th entry.
Damn, the struggle
🤣🤣🤣🤣
Congratulations nicki
I’m not a hater
I will always clap for anybody who wins.
Nicki better enjoy the first and last and only no 1 hit of her career chile
You are pressed about someone you supposedly hate that you don’t even know personally
And you defend a pedô enabler. What’s worse b****?
Haha you mad doggie ? You mad?
Something seems fishy about this. I love both songs, but that say so remix wasn’t touching the savage remix. Maybe if Beyoncé would promote or just make a ig post for Megan the way Nicki did for doja. Idk something seems off about this #1. But congrats ladies!
Now bardo Gang trying to bring up stripper b’s stats 😂😂 they pressed child….
Let’s see Doja and Nicki get three number 1 hits between the two of them 🤣🤣 Cardi and her GRAMMY and THREE #1 hits are unbothered. I heard Nicki had a hysterectomy so the old b**** can’t even have babies
You’re bothered. How did whale just get her first number one piggybacking after being out since Obama’s first term but you’re thinking about Cardi? Her power.
A real queen and not a stream queen, but we been knew.
Doja will regret putting Nicki on this song. Nicki and the barbs will forever take credit for getting this song to number 1. Nicki looks pathetic for having to jump on a song that was already popping for her first #1. I bet Nicki will say this is the lead single from her 5th album 🙄
See when you the queen you can jump on any song, you pressed for what?
Let’s see Nicki and Doja get three #1 hits between the two of them 🤣 Nicki got cardi big shook.
now, now… it took ten years, countless features for the queen who jumps on anything, to actually land a number one hit.
being bad said that, a real queen would have her own number ones to help carry another artist to number one (that’s true queen and iconic shhh). instead Nikki has ridden the coat tail of a hit and actually delivered some of her weakest bars to date.
but hey congratulations 🎈 right?
*being had said that*
Only Facts calm down Ms. Gurl. In part nicki is reps imo for this jumping to number 1 her fans and Doja’s fans came together to get the song to the top.
Congrats to Doja and Nicki. It goes without saying Nick will never get another number. If Nick is the reasons the song is number 1 than why she don’t have more number 1’s.
Talent finally won! yess lord.
🤣😂 where’s they talent? They hopped on a song that sounds like it was meant for Katy Perry and begged people to use their stimulus checks to buy multiple copies….and idiots fell for it
Congrats to Doja and Nicki on their deserved Number 1.
It’s not her song… So…
And i wouldn’t be surprised if Beyonce was helping with buying doja record just to get nicki her first #1 so she wouldn’t have weird vibes when she’s around her.
Camicky in 2020:
Flop Remix
Cancelled Tour
Flop Solo Singles
Flop Album
What is next for the Karma Queen 😂
Normani in 2020

Normani is a bald bìtch
Normani and Camila f****** suck. Y’all are fighting over who is worse? Joke
2020
Brit Nomination
Rolling Stones Cover
Making multiple Acclaimed Artist to Look out for

Camicky really thought she was going to get a Grammy 😂. No Dua has it. Another artist who hates Camicky & loves Normani. Talent.
#BadBitch
Brit award was not solo
Rolling stone magazine cover was not solo
Megan was on the same magazine cover with normani, look at megan’s career today
Number 2 hit
Top 10 mixtape
Where is normani on the billboard hot 100, itunes, spotify 100?
Queen Nicki is prof that you should never give up. Always keep trying and striving for more. I love her
Nicki and her hysterectomy are pathetic
You have to be an Unamused teenager at home ..talking about hysterectomies? You’d know that is a health issue for women..SEETHE NICKI NUMBER 1 and y’all cannot take it lmao
We luv a calculated queen, just came out of nowhere and snatched that number 1 right up. The bums are steaming lol 😝
Meg was getting to arrogant cheesy ass glad she didn’t get to number 1 so she can brag about being the first rapper with a number 1 from ep ha ha 😂😂😂😂
Cardi’s first #1 hit was solo. Some people can’t relate. Let’s see this Nicki and Doja get 3 #1 hits between the both of them 🤣 Nicki is such a clout chaser
She done no one cares about her anymore
She’s done because she’s on a two year break? Artists in the 90’s and 00’s ALWAYS took two year breaks….then they came out with CLASSICS! Something Doja and Nicki have yet to create 🤣 F****** Demi Lovato or Normani or Daniel Cesar clusmev gotten this song to number 1…it’s a Katy Perry reject produced by Dr. Luke! Lol where’s the artistry? Y’all are bums
Yes…nicki is the queen of rap…for my generation….
All that ish talking about how she’s a has-been…
I know her lessors are mad as fugg….
Beyondfake can’t win for ish…..dead
Yikes!! This will not be a lizzo moment for doja should have let her original sing go to number 1 without a remix. The barbz and Nicki will make sure this is seen as their number 1 doja will just be pushed in the back ground 🤷🏽♀️🥴
No she will not her name is on this. You’re just mad Nicki is attached to it. A lot of y’all haven’t listened to Hot Pink and it shows. That album if the masses actually listen to it has songs on it that are better than Say So..hopefully her song Like That with Gucci Mane will blow up now since it’s been added to radio
Hot Pink is bomb!! Y’all sleeping if you haven’t heard it. This girl will have more number ones!! Boss B**** slays!
Haters eat that! Congrats ladies!!!!!!!!!!!
I don’t care what any of the people who are haters say! Nicki has a number now 1 of the many things y’all held over her head.
Nicki would’ve been had a number 1 if streaming counted like it does now when she came out with Moment 4 Life, Monster would’ve got her a number 1 that song blew up because people couldn’t get over her verse, Anaconda should’ve been a number 1 y’all keep acting like she never release popular songs
I hope Meg goes number 1 next week
69 will be #1 . Sorry Meg I don’t see this going to #1. She will get hers too she’s talented
So how do we fell about Beyoncé being one of Nicki’s new sons? Let’s discuss ladies…
Congrats Nikki. Top 2 n not number 2
I don’t understand why all the songs I never really hear played get number 1. Savage and the remix are playing heavy on all stations in Ohio. I’m so confused congratulations to doja tho. Y’all making this about nicki when this is Doja song
Congratz to Doja and Nicki. Shout out to stallion and bay same way.
The level of anger that is being felt by Nicki’s haters is beyond ridiculous.
AFTER y’all talked ALL of that Trash…LoL
Eat Cake !!!
In my Nicki voice, “Dojaaaaa”!!!
She did it
So mow no more BS aboutnot having a #1 because SHE DOES NOW 🙂
Deal with it.
#Team Nicki
Congrats to both Doja and Nicki well deserved.
Wow! congrats to both Doja and Nicki!! Says So remix is one of my faves of 2020 so far!!🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
