In spite of everything, Nicki Minaj is still the most-successful female rapper in history. Her run has seen her break records set by Lil’ Kim and Eve. No question, had those ladies released more albums, their records would’ve been much harder to break.
Early in her career, Nicki Minaj paid homage to Lil’ Kim, Remy Ma, and many others. But, the competition got the best of everyone involved, so the beef began to overshadow the history being made. However, history is still being made.
Nicki Minaj initially told her fans she’d drop a new album in 2017, when they began hounding her, last year. Unless she has some surprise coming, Nicki Minaj’s first album in the streaming era comes next year. But, her singles are dominating, with “You Da Baddest,” with Future at 38, Yo Gotti’s “Rake It Up” at 26, and Jason Derulo’s “Swalla” at 82.
