Chart Check: Cardi B’s ‘Invasion of Privacy’ Becomes First Female Rap Album To Log OVER 200 Weeks on Billboard 200

Published: Friday 18th Feb 2022 by Rashad

Cardi B‘s ‘Invasion of Privacy’ has invaded history books on a number of fronts in the nearly 4 years since its debut.

In addition to becoming the first female Rap album to launch multiple #1 hits, win the Best Rap Album GRAMMY, and have every one of its songs certified by the Recording Industry of America, it’s also the first album by a female of any genre to place 13 of its tracks on the Billboard Hot 100 simultaneously.

Those accomplishments are just a few of many afforded to the chart-topping LP, a list of wins that shows no sign of slowing.

This week, ‘Privacy’ crossed a major Billboard 200 threshold when it became the first female Rap album to chart over 200 weeks.

Placed at #169 (up from #174 last week), its 201st print on the hit list is not only a milestone for Rap but also ties it at #20 with Drake‘s ‘If You’re Reading This It’s Too Late’ on the tally’s all-time list of longest-running Hip Hop albums.

Look below to see who else joins the duo (as of time reported).

    The way Cardi ended Nicki’s relevancy with ONE album 😂😂😂 bring on album #2 Bardi!!!

    • Farrah’s Luggage (8k Camila) February 18, 2022

      And before someone tries to say “Nicki’s new song is #2 on billboard”, that’s correct BUT it’s predicted to drop tremendously next week 😂😂😂 St. Nick can’t recover from 2018

      • Dc February 18, 2022

        Like 40 Places the barbz need to realize without radio play plus sales it’s not gonna be a hit they rush out first week hoping for a number 1 and free fall second week 😂😂😂😂😂😂

        I couldn’t care less if it went #1. ‘Problem’ is terrible and Nikki will Flop almost as hard as MJB. Nikkis Album will be forgotten by week 2 along with the rest of her forgettable catalog. Nikki does Not attract CASUAL listeners like Cardi does, only Stans.

    • AjaM89 February 20, 2022

      Lol. That is a reach… Ask Kanye and 50 cents first.

    Although INVASION was way better than Queen it still had FILLER… Get up 10, she bad, best life, I do, and Ring all belonged on the cutting room floor. It would’ve been better as 10 tracks with Press & Money imo.

    • Dc February 18, 2022

      Stfu please get up 10 was 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

    • Dc February 18, 2022

      Mjb has 15 albums out this Is her 15 th let me know who’s still doing huge numbers after 15 albums

    • AB February 18, 2022

      Lies!!!!! All those songs are MUST HAVES!!! Only song I could possibly see as filler is maybe “I Do” but no all those songs were lit!!!! If you didn’t like them that’s on you!!! But definitely not fillers especially if you know her personality as a fan like me.

  3. #TruthHurts February 18, 2022

    Nicki enjoys her craft… Cardi enjoys the plaques. There’s a big difference that you kids and this site won’t understand.

    • Dc February 18, 2022

    • Section8DaGreat February 18, 2022

      That’s because of Lil Baby. All Nicki can do is combine fan bases because she knows the barbs are broke. All they do is use McDonald’s WiFi to stream her music as long as they can.

    • Fancy BISH (Back To The Future 🤣) 👊🏽💎💋 February 19, 2022

      @TRASHNATION I have two questions for you; 1) are you a paedo (2) are you a paedo supporter?

  5. Jack February 18, 2022

  7. True Tea February 18, 2022

    For me….it doesn’t matter how much success Cardi has, I will never respect nor acknowledge anything she has accomplished.

    Everyone & their mama have drug Nicki like it was religion & NOT once has she ever cried mental health OR played the helpless victim.

    • Fancy BISH (Back To The Future 🤣) 👊🏽💎 February 19, 2022

      Shut it f a g you love playing the helpless victim 🤣😂🤣😂🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡🤡

      • True Tea February 21, 2022

        B*tch!

  8. AjaM89 February 20, 2022

    I mean, she has no other albums… like fans and bots will be forced to play it over and over again… but yeah, congrats cardi b…
