What year did your fave get their first certified hit by the RIAA?! What year did your fave get their latest hit certified by the RIAA?!

Yes

First: 1990

being a hitmaker implies the artist had an active role in making that hit. if your fave didn't have an hand in writing, composing and producing said hit then it doesn't count. 

Not since 1999!

that’s like saying most of rihanna’s hits “don’t count” which is an incredibly stupid thing to say

What an awful take

My fav retired in 2017, but she was once one of the music industry's biggest hitmakers. 

My fav hasn’t been a hitmaker for a very long time.

First: 2012

Latest: last month

Gaga wrote all of her hits since 2008 til this day so YES

I somewhat agree with some of this mostly writing. (Without 15 writers attached to one song)

Yes Ava Max is 

They make hits for others 

The biggest female hitmaker of all time so yes!

If by 'hit' you mean a song that sold 30k units in the US then yes:

 

First: 1998

Last: 2022

 

The female artist with the most IFPI top 10 entries, so YES. Global classics-maker.

 

She gave her co-writer his only Grammy winning, Diamond certified Hot 100 multi-week #1 (first certified in 2013) -  so yes
