Hector Posted February 7, 2017 Posted February 7, 2017 (edited) Quote Nicki Minaj Passes Taylor Swift for Second-Most Hot 100 Hits Among Women Nicki Minaj breaks a tie with Taylor Swift for the second-most Billboard Hot 100 appearances among women, as she debuts as featured (with PARTYNEXTDOOR) on Major Lazer's "Run Up" at No. 66 (on the chart dated Feb. 18). Now with 71 Hot 100 entries, Minaj one-ups Swift, who has made 70 visits. Minaj and Swift trail only Aretha Franklin for the most Hot 100 hits among women, as the Queen of Soul boasts 73. Here is an updated count of the female soloists with the most charted Hot 100 entries dating to the ranking's Aug. 4, 1958, inception (though the chart dated Feb. 18): Most Hot 100 Entries Among Women All-Time 73, Aretha Franklin 71, Nicki Minaj 70, Taylor Swift 57, Madonna 57, Rihanna 56, Dionne Warwick 53, Beyonce 53, Connie Francis 48, Brenda Lee 47, Mariah Carey 43, Miley Cyrus 41, Barbra Streisand 40, Mary J. Blige 40, Janet Jackson 40, Diana Ross Notably, and in line with the collaborative nature of hip-hop, Minaj has been credited as a lead artist on 27 of her Hot 100 entries and featured on 44; Swift has been the lead on 67 of her 70 chart entries; and Franklin has boasted lead billing on all 73 of her Hot 100 hits (with much of her career predating years in which featured credits became common). Among all acts, the cast of Fox's Glee leads with 207 charted Hot 100 titles, followed by Lil Wayne (133) and Drake (132). Franklin is in 10th place among all acts for the highest total and Minaj ties The Beatles for 11th (with her 70th Hot 100 hit, "Black Barbies," with Mike WiLL Made-It, a reimagination of Rae Sremmurd's "Black Beatles," featuring Gucci Mane) http://www.billboard.com/biz/articles/7684999/nicki-minaj-passes-taylor-swift-for-second-most-hot-100-hits-among-women Who else but the Aretha Franklin of rap? Aretha will pass the torch to Nicki by Nicki's next album. Edited February 7, 2017 by Hector
NMiguelCosta Posted February 8, 2017 Posted February 8, 2017 Taylor will beat Aretha's record with the next album and without features but whatever...
ArianadelRey Posted February 8, 2017 Posted February 8, 2017 I love you Nicki, but all of Taylor's standard tracks from her next album will enter the chart
Click Clack Posted February 8, 2017 Posted February 8, 2017 Yall always fume @ her doing features and it's so weird Queen is STILL in high demand 8 years into her career and this is very impressive for a female rapper, slay Onika
Click Clack Posted February 8, 2017 Posted February 8, 2017 Just now, Chanel4 said: Honestly it doesn't count with nicki. She's on a billion songs when most of these artists have their own discography to show for. Billboard counts them and their opinion holds more weight than yours my love.
Soapp Posted February 8, 2017 Posted February 8, 2017 Well with 5887234758 features, I'm not surprised.

Not sure why people are using the features to drag her. She makes hits and that's that.
Beautiful Liar Posted February 8, 2017 Posted February 8, 2017 Wait ya see that Taylor has like 3 collaborations
blurryface Posted February 8, 2017 Posted February 8, 2017 Too bad she couldn't do it on her own. Slay tho!
JayRockafella Posted February 8, 2017 Posted February 8, 2017 It's not her fault that she's in demand and it still doesn't take away from her accomplishment.
Mo_to_the Posted February 8, 2017 Posted February 8, 2017 Nicki is more talented, beautiful and makes the better music, so it's not surprising.
slw84 Posted February 8, 2017 Posted February 8, 2017 It does count with Nicki but why is it even a big deal Glee has the most entries Lil wayne or drake might have the most as a solo. Now the title saying most hits is misleading but all in all it's not like people look at entries as hits. Taylor stans should not even be this concerned shading it because quite a few of those songs in Taylor's roster were from the pre release thing she used to do. chart entries are not the equivalent of sales, #1 peaks, top 10 peaks, longevity so chill a bit. No one is claiming she has more hits than anyone female but Aretha franklin
Bacardo Royale Posted February 8, 2017 Posted February 8, 2017 (edited) And how many has she got without features? Edited February 8, 2017 by OpenBacardi
ATRL Moderator Azulito Posted February 8, 2017 ATRL Moderator Posted February 8, 2017 They'll both pass Aretha this year
