Congrats, Nicki! With its 4-3 rise on the Billboard Hot 100 chart last week, the Young Money rapper’s single “Super Bass” become the highest-charting Hot 100 rap hit by a solo female (without the aid of a featured artist) since Missy Elliott’s “Work It” reached No. 2 in 2002. It’s also just the eighth rap single by a solo female to reach the top 10 in the chart’s 53-year history. Major!!
