Cardi B and Megan Thee Stallion have each made a splash over the last year with their collaborative and individual efforts.

Aptly, then, the ‘WAP’ rappers lead the nominations for the 2021 BET Hip-Hop Awards together with Lil Durk.

Collectively, the trio has scored nine nominations each.

Fellow titan Drake follows closely with eight.

This year’s show takes place at the Cobb Energy Performing Arts Centre in Atlanta, GA and airs October 5.

Megan Thee Stallion trots through the mind of Akademiks quite a bit it seems.

At the top of the year, the blogger/DJ-turned-Web personality sent the rapper’s fans – affectionately called #Hotties – into a frenzy when he said the GRAMMY winner wasn’t ‘100th of the talent’ of her ‘Hot Girl Summer’ co-star Nicki Minaj (as we reported here).

As if the unceremonious slamming he was for that afforded wasn’t enough, he returned for more this week – inciting furor after Stallion’s 2021 BET Award sweep.

See what he said that caused a firestorm of controversy among the #Hotties.

The power of 3 has proven itself potent yet again – especially when the award-winning trio is comprised of two powerhouse vocalists, Jessie J and Ariana Grande, as well as Rap Queen Nicki Minaj.

Their 2014 collaboration ‘Bang Bang’ – found aboard J’s third album ‘Sweet Talker’ and Grande’s second album ‘My Everything’ – was a Hot 100 history-making megahit at the height of its popularity, penciled in Billboard records for becoming the third highest-peaking song to feature three or more female acts (bested only by 2001’s ‘Lady Marmalade’ and a two-way tie between 1998’s ‘Heartbreak Hotel’ and now 2021’s ’34+35′ remix).

Despite its established list of boasted achievements, the latest refresh of Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA) logs reveals the song’s commercial acclaim is enduring nearly 7 years after its release.

Given their history of cranking out top 40 hits (see: Jason Derulo‘s ‘Swalla’ and Megan Thee Stallion‘s ‘Hot Girl Summer’), Ty Dolla $ign and Nicki Minaj have already proven they have the Midas touch.

Now, with new song ‘Expensive,’ they’re looking to prove it again.

“She’s so expensive, okay / Beemers or the Benzes, okay,” Ty sings on the track. “Lambo or the double R truck, yeah yeah / She gon’ let a superstar f**k.”

The song is assumed to be one of many gems set to line $ign’s forthcoming studio album, ‘Dream House’ (the follow-up to 2017’s ‘Beach House 3’).
