CONGRATS: Nicki Minaj Breaks Billboard Record for “Starships” Single

Trinidadian International rap superstar, Nicki Minaj, has set a new record on the Billboard Hot 100 chart for her single “Starships.”

The dance-pop single has been on the Billboard Top 10 for 21 weeks after being debuted at No. 9 on the chart for the first time on March 3. “Starships” has been going back and forth between No. 10 and its No. 5.

“Overall, ‘Starships’ has reached 1.3 billion cumulative audience impressions and has pushed 3.2 million downloads” according to Nielsen SoundScan.
