Nicki Minaj‘s comeback campaign was gifted a gargantuan boost today courtesy of new single ‘Chun-Li.’
The track, which arrived alongside ‘Barbie Tingz,’ has just reached a major landmark on the Billboard Hot 100.
Details below…
On this week’s tally, the cut blasts from #92 to #10 following its first full week of activity. [Notably, the track initially charted with just one day of data after arriving on a Thursday (April 12th).]
In making the mega-leap, the song becomes Minaj’s 16th top 10 on the Hot 100.
So, how did Onika do it?
Well, ‘Chun-Li’ earned 22.1 million streams and sold 38,000 digital downloads.
The feat sees Minaj extend her lead atop of the list of female rappers with the most top 10’s. Missy Elliott comes closest with 9.
Elsewhere, ‘Barbie Tingz’ climbs #83-#25.
The placements come as the femcee preps her eagerly awaited album roll-out and world tour.

Queen ???
I think I got a new s** yall. I’ve been itching in my groin all day.
congratz to her.
Flop
The song will fall down the charts next week. HOnika thinks she’s slick with her payola. Her run is done. In the end, these cheap “hits” won’t be remembered. Cardi will be remembered more than this trick. Cardi had a legitimate HIT and moment in hip hop with Bodak Yellow. HOnika has never had a Bodak Yellow and she will never get one. HOnika’s career is all smoke and mirrors. The jig is up. Hip hop has moved on. It’s over HOnika. You’re almost 40. Hang it up. Flatscreen. Cardi is the new queen of rap. Lil’ Kim is the Queen Mother of Rap. HOnika is just the chick that copied Lil’ Kim’s swag to create a short-lived buzz.
Honey will y’all give it a break comparing Cardi to Nicki! Nicki is fuckingg rap legend period! She was a legend before Cardi and she will remain as such! Check the score board, she has double he catalog sales of any female rapper! Most male as well!
To the Lil Kim fans, give it a f****** rest Kim was DOA after she went to jail. I was team Kim, until I realized she would never make music- biitch if you ain’t shittting get off the pot!
Argue with your mother, she is a rap legend. Super Bass, moment for life, anaconda, & romans revenge are bomb! Fucckk ya fav and preference!
Cardi is better than Nicki. Cardi will have a bigger impact on hip hop history. Nicki is a copycat and a fraud. She will never be a legend. Only people dumb enough to be barbz think that featuring on lots of dumb songs makes a person a legend.
Lil’ Kim didn’t need to be on 500 features to be legendary. The music she did is timeless. That’s why the Queen Mother of Rap can still perform her iconic verses 20+ years later. Nobody will be asking Nicki to perform Anaconda in 20 years.
@LIL KIM ? get a life! Lol your sick obsession with Nicki is seriously unhealthy. Imagine hating a person you’ve never met and constantly praying for their downfall -just to see them continuously win ?.. Nicki isn’t going anywhere, anytime soon! Stay pressed. ?
Lil Kim even in her short prime never was as famous as Nicki. Stop trying to recreate history. Kim was being outsold and outplayed on radio by Missy and Eve at one point. How come you all are not upset with them? How come Lil Kim can’t catch a hit to save her life? How come if Lil Kim released an album today it would flop faster than a fish hitting the floor? Why does she look like a tan Asain, when she’s an African American?Lil Kim fans have been jealous and bitter since the arrival of Nicki. You all know she’s a has been who wrote nearly none of her own bars, that’s why you guys hide behind Cardi B. Cardi B can’t even rap. She’s a fad. Same as Iggy was.
@BYISI YOU JUST READDDD FOR FILTH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!e ghiowpwygiopaweygi9payewio4gpyareiogarepyhgioparheigoaer
That legitimate hit had a legitimate ghostwriter too. Tell Garbi Flea to write her s*** or go back to the strip club ???
No REAL music video , no major promo , no TV interview that’s impressive
And it will have the same impact and longevity as that anaconda nonesense- absolutely NONE. And that has nothing to do with Cardi cause that bïtçh doesn’t have bars, it has to do with nickis wack regurgitate music
But you’re here for it. ? thank you the views and the comments hun ? I’m sure you’ve already contributed to the streams as well ?? keep up the good work. ??
I was wrong lol…but I’m right here bih *Puts Vaseline on face* AND WHAT!? lmao
At least you “sort of” own up to it. Props to you lol
People so stupid. Nicki clearly paid for the song to be in the Top 20. Her career was done when Safaree left and dead when she got Shelter by Remy. It’s a wrap fix a flat
This woman has had hits since shether! How come Remy can’t seem to find any? Safaree can’t even get a hit for himself. B**** you and any other person on here hating are mad because your tiny mind put it in your head she was over. Meanwhile she’s grabbed her 16th Top 10! And the other song went to #25. I mean goodness you can track the single sells and streams to see how the single landed in it’s chart position. That’s how dumb some of you are.
Do you honestly think she would have “paid” for her song to enter at #10? Do you even realize how stupid that sounds?
Why does billboard say missy Elliot has only 9 top 10 songs? Here are 11 that were in the top 10 unless I’m wrong here:
Hot Boyz
Get Ur Freak On
Work It
Gossip Folks
Lose Control
Not Tonight (Ladies’ Night)
Make It Hot
Trippin’
Oops (Oh My)
1,2 Step
Let It Go
you fuckinh crack-er i will bust you in the mouth stfu
Okay s****** troll. But back to the topic at hand, why is billboard not counting 2 of her features?
Hope she’s smart enough to put that song on heavy promotional campaign, videos , performance and the works cuz Bardi is here b u gotta work way over time…
If only she’d released on Friday instead of Thursday it would have been 58,000 in sales instead of 38,000 and been way higher!
Yo.. I don’t know WHY her team or her wouldn’t know that! Like she’s limiting her self from that no. 1 at this point.
Like what gives? I doubt it would’ve been #1 but probably would’ve been top 5.
i will shoot in the face
???
This won’t last long cause both songs are falling fast on iTunes,Chun li#34,Barbi tings#90
Queen s*** Cardi could Neva beat Nicki’s records
Where is Nicki’s ONE #1 tho?
She still under Cardi I like it is number 9 and Nicki is number 10 and next week it will fall to number 20 it never fails
Birdman stay buying Nicki’s and Drake’s Billboard positions.This is why Wayne won’t see a dime. Hes making sure nicki don’t get pushed out the spotlight by Cardi. It’s hilarious.
This is so true.that is why he feel like he own them. That’s why after the trash talking, lawsuits lil wayne is right back in baby face.
Atlantic is buying cardi’s s***. They already been exposed for using payola. Birdman ain’t doing nothing. Drake and nicki don’t need heavy promo or virdman to buy their music. They talent speak for itself,
I remember the time when music was music and charts had meaning.
Now you can have all the top tens and number 1s and still have no impact.
Nicki has had a nice run but I think her time is done.Funny how immediately she went quiet on social media..she wasn’t missed at all.
I think the problem is that she spread herself too thin.Featuring in every song..even dance music.It confused a lot of people.
The Nicki predicament should be a lesson to every artist:Be yourself. Don’t steal other people’s persona and learn not to say yes to every collaboration.
It dilutes the brand.
Yes. The next big female rapper in the years to come Wil learn from all it their mistakes and hopefully does it tastefully.
Luckily it seems dropping down the charts as I type!!?”Bzzz”?
lmao just like koolaid disappeared altogether from the charts right? and STILL hasn’t hit 2 million sales lmfaoooo
Besides ye they can’t stand beside me!! ??? Queen!
