Cardi B‘s ‘Invasion of Privacy’ is no stranger to invading history books with stats that once seemed insurmountable.

In addition to becoming the first album by a female act to see every one of its singles certified Gold or higher by the RIAA (including the recently Diamond-awarded ‘Bodak Yellow’), ‘Privacy’ is also the first album by a female rapper to nab the Best Rap Album at the GRAMMYs.

Now, it’s adding another win to its seemingly countless list of victories.  Details inside:

With unforgettable hits like ‘We Fall Down,’ ‘Speak to My Heart,’ and ‘Stand,’ multiple Gold and Platinum records to his credit, and and a trophy case full of industry honors including 3 GRAMMYs, Donnie McClurkin is revered as one of the most successful Gospel artists in history.

However, while his professional achievements are plentiful, those wins – according to him – were not mirrored in his personal life.

Despite rocking headlines in 2018 for alleged ties to a gay cult, the 61-year-old has not bitten his tongue over the years about his reported deliverance from homosexuality – a stance he’s reiterated by vocalizing opposition to same-sex marriage and more.

Due to said view, McClurkin recently took to TV One’s ‘Uncensored’ to speak candidly about his own love life.  There, he even asserted he would likely be alone forever despite a desire for love and family.

Over its 62-year history, the Hot 100 has repeatedly proven itself to be a boys club.  But thanks to artists like Mariah Carey, Madonna, Janet Jackson, Whitney Houston, Rihanna, and other musical leading ladies, the playing field gets a little more even every year.

For evidence, one needn’t look much further than rapstress Cardi B – who recently nabbed her fifth chart-topper on the tally thanks to her latest single, ‘Up.’

No stranger to racing into history books, the historic accomplishment not only made her the first female rapper in history to have two Hot 100 #1 hits without a credited supporting feature but it also extended her record of most chart-toppers among female rappers (5).

And while she holds that title by her lonesome, there are other historic achievements attained by ‘Up’ that puts her in prestigious, Girl Powered company.
