The Lo Down: Nicki Minaj Makes History, LLWS Responds to Black Player Being Covered in Cotton & More [WATCH]
Nicki Minaj continues to make history! Her brand new single “Super Freaky Girl” debuted at number one on the Billboard Hot 100, making her the first female rap track to debut atop the chart since Lauryn Hill’s “Doo Wop (That Thing)” back in 1998.
The track samples Rick James’ 1981 classic “Super Freak”. After retweeting accounts that announced the feat, Minaj shared a simple tweet to thank all her fans for helping her reach this achievement.
