Nicki Minaj has established herself as the current go-to female MC all without releasing a full-length album. The Young Money star has set a new record on Billboard‘s Hot 100 chart by having the most singles on the chart at one time, with seven entries including Ludacris’ “My Chick Bad”, Lil Wayne’s “Knockout”, Trey Songz’ “Bottoms Up”, Usher’s “Lil Freak”, Sean Kingston’s “Letting Go (Dutty Love)”, and Jay Sean’s “2012.” Per Soundscan, the songs have reached close to $4.3 million in sales. Now of course Minaj doesn’t pocket that money, as each deal is either a flat rate for her to appear on or a small percentage of royalties, but even Minaj’s main single “Your Love” has reached a staggering $755k in sales all without a video.
