It seems as though what Meghan Trainor is really all about is clocking #1s.

For, after pop superstar Beyonce passed on the female empowerment song ‘All About That Bass,’ Trainor took the tune to the top of the Hot 100 for 8 consecutive weeks.  Now, fans looking for the Massachusetts-bred songbird’s album on charts shouldn’t look anywhere but up as she’s currently perched atop the Billboard 200 with her debut ‘Title.’

Besting initial reports of 220,000 first week sales by nearly 20,000, the burgeoning diva saw her first title on the tally zoom to #1 on the wings of 238,000 units sold.  This, just days before word had it country pop princess Taylor Swift saw her blockbuster ‘1989’ album edge past the 4 million mark.

If you were wondering when was the last time an album shifted 4 million copies in the U.S. you shouldn’t be surprised to know that it was when Swift did it herself a year ago with ‘Red.’

After deciding not to respond to remarks about her made by J. Cole, Pop crybaby Iggy Azalea took aim at Hip-Hop station ‘Hot 97‘ hours ago, calling its program director a hater after he mocked an interview she gave to ‘GQ‘ magazine.

For, in said interview, the entertainer claimed that she “sparked a change in Hip-Hop”, prompting the Hip-Hop tastemaker Ebro Darden to take aim at her claim with a Hip-Hop Wired-made meme titled ‘Tweet your face when Iggy Azalea said she “sparked a change” in Hip-Hop.”
