Chart Check: Nicki Minaj Ties Rihanna, Surpasses Elton John Hot 100 Record As ‘Bussin’ Becomes Her 42nd Top 20 Hit

Published: Wednesday 23rd Feb 2022 by Rashad

With the #2 entry of her Lil Baby-assisted single ‘Do We Have a Problem’ on last week’s Billboard Hot 100, Nicki Minaj made history for becoming the first female rapper to have 20 top 10 hits.

Despite the tune slipping 30 places in week 2, her follow-up tag team with Baby has delivered news she’s extended another history-making effort on the chart.

More inside:

‘Bussin,’ her second single with Lil Baby released in as many weeks, debuted at #20 on this week’s Hot 100.  Its premiere marks the 42nd top 20 hit the Rap diva’s earned in her over 12-year-long career.

Among all artists, the move helps Minaj break a standing tie with music legend Elton John on the ‘most Billboard Hot 100 top 20 hits’ all-time list.  Now solidly sitting in 7th place alongside Rihanna and The Beatles, the only other acts to boast more appearances in the same chart tier are Drake, Lil Wayne, Taylor Swift, Elvis Presley, Madonna, and Kanye West.

As she and her team celebrate the new win, look below to see who joins her in the top 20 on this week’s TGJ Chart Check.

    And not a single solo number one in site. She just was the featured act on artist that is nowhere on her level. The show of over for OinkNika!

    • FAF February 23, 2022

      She has two number ones within 6 weeks of each other

    From 2 to 32? Lawd…even Iyanla couldn’t fix this.

    • J February 23, 2022

      These probably won’t even be on an album so she still wins

  4. Salad tosser February 23, 2022

    Just for it to drop off the charts next week. Low how far the other single dropped in a week. Her “records” are so farce. She shouldn’t even be mentioned in the same breath as someone like Rihanna who has ACTUAL hits that don’t fall into irrelevancy 2 weeks after debuting. Poor Nicki. No classic hits or albums and contrived ass billboard “records” poor her indeed….

    • FAF February 23, 2022

      Rihanna don’t even write her music 💀💀💀

      She ain’t dropped an album in half a decade and the last one sold 360 physical copies first week

      • Nhevi February 23, 2022

        Anti still on the charts 6 years later LMAO. Nicki’s albums are forgotten and her singles don’t even chart 6 weeks. Bye goofy.

  5. Tori February 23, 2022

    How you the Queen and ain’t ever been #1? Bıtch, you’re a fraud❗ 😜😂😂

  6. J February 23, 2022

    Damn b**** 😝

  7. Nicki is mid February 23, 2022

    Out of all these so called “hits” , how many of them made any impact? I’ll wait….

  8. Roberta FlackSabbath February 23, 2022

    Queen of the Drive-bys.

    FRAUD.

  9. Bravo!! February 23, 2022

    Do we have a problem only peak so high because of the barbz. No shade, but she has some faithful fans though. No one can take away the movement she started for herself and female rappers.

    • FAF February 23, 2022

      Beyoncé only has a career because of the hive
      U see how dumb you sound ?

      Fans buy music

      Cardi b uses beefs with republicans to get video views to go number one

      That’s the difference #sympathy vs talent

      Btw she still has the queen name in her tags on YouTube to dupe the barbs into streaming

      • Pat February 23, 2022

        Bey will probably be experiencing the same thing next. Large fan base to impact first week but gp not interested. These are 40 year old women phasing out of it girl to legendary if they’re lucky

  10. Pat February 23, 2022

    Hits that don’t stick. Congrats dumplin

  11. Lou February 23, 2022

    All these haters and she still the queen

  12. P February 23, 2022

  13. P February 23, 2022

  14. True Tea February 23, 2022

    Megan & Cardi are shook. No more scissoring & p**** popping. Now we’re going to sit back & see what more they can do.

  15. February 24, 2022

    She keeps doing her thing, Queen of Rap Nicki Minaj.
