The news that Nicki Minaj Now Has More Hot 100 Hits Than Madonna is definitely impressive. When you think back to all the singles you’ve ever heard the Pinkprint princess on, as well as the massive promo tours she’s engaged in including the latest cover of Rolling Stone, any and every success makes more and more sense. Even though her A&Rs reportedly slammed her latest album calling it “The Sh*tprint,” being disappointed in it’s sales and the decision to give her power over the marketing campaigns, seems nothing slows progress for the Queen Barbz.
So…HOW Nicki Minaj Now Has More Hot 100 Hits Than Madonna?
