Nicki hates the fact that she’s not the “IT” Rap Girl. Even if you look at 2020 musically and how everybody was comparing which pop album was the definitive moment of the year between Future Nostalgia and Chromatica, both achieved critical success in many different ways. Gaga showed as her lyric states that this is her dance floor she fought for. Dua Lipa proved that she is a force to be taken seriously. Notice how not one of them said anything awful about the other and very likely never will because they know how important it is to support women in an already cruel industry that treats women horribly.

Now with Nicki Minaj, she doesn’t like the fact that not only is she not the main staple “IT” girl in rap music, but that Cardi B and Megan both only a few years into their careers have chart topping success and of course a Grammy. Nicki has been dropping music since what 2007 when they were all mixtapes, and even with getting # 1’s and being so popular it’s not good enough. The way I see it, her approach how dare these other girls up and coming have more success than I do and I’ve been doing this longer. She’s not supporting women and she has no intention of ever being cordial with Cardi, or Megan or anyone who came before her because she’s so insecure that any other female rapper is a threat to her.

I absolutely agree with everything you said, she is indeed very bitter and unsupportive of other female rappers. She only seems to show support if they do less better than her and if they recognize her as the ‘queen of rap’ something she is extremely obsessed about. However, Nicki walked so they could run. And that is just a fact. The same way Lil Kim ( and many other women like Missy, Eve, Trina, and so on ) crawled so Nicki could walk. Everybody built their careers on top of one another and walked through the doors the previous acts opened. Nicki was done dirty plenty of times and was not taken seriously for years. We can both recognized that she never truly got the acclaim and recognition she deserved while also admit that that fact turned her into a bitter person that now can’t be happy for anybody. Or she already was that, we’ll never know. Both things are true at the same time. She deserved more in the past when she struggled to make it as a female rapper in an industry that had no place for her while also admit that she is a horrible example for the female rap community in terms of the way she treats her peers. ( putting aside her other problematic behavior and just discussing her as an artist and evolution in the industry ). The problem is much bigger and should be looked at from multiple points of view. I am not a huge Nicki fan and never was, but to be honest, who knows what kind of reaction I’d have if I was in her shoes seeing everybody else get a slice of the cake while I don’t no matter how good I am. And the fact of the matter is, in mainstream female rap, at this hour, she is the best. 
But to end this, yes, I agree with what you said but I believe there’s always an explanation ( not an excuse!!! ) for why people are the way they are. And sometimes being the victims of something makes them the perpetrators of the same kind of behavior. In this case hostility.

1. Im not supporting her, I am just stating facts

2. Like I said, you really can't compare the two songs as one of them has been out for over two years and the other one for 2 weeks

3. I really don't give a **** which one is bigger hit

Think it had 8 versions available

The only good part of the song is the fact that it samples Super Freak, an actual bop. Otherwise it’s a stuttering mess that has no hook. 

[ThisGuyTony 30,734]

So the insufferable woman got her #1. Ugh.  

[killme89 1,415]

Hmmm something seems off tbh

It is a genuinely catchy song in big part to the sample. When Gaga releases music (such as shallow , rain on me) that are good songs marketed well they can go #1. 911 and hold my hand are not amazing tracks. They are just ‘ok’

But in America, multiple weeks at the top are extremely common, especially in the streaming age. In the UK, one week #1's used to be the way things were but when streaming was introduced, suddenly, songs were staying at the top for weeks as a matter of course. Our charts are now totally like American charts in that sense. And while fans obviously power a song to #1 on its debut week, it's not always fans. Gaga's Just Dance was her debut single, (not her debut week but before she had an album out, before she had any fans) and it was at the top for 3 weeks, closely followed by Pokerface. All of this before she had an established fanbase. And it's totally the case for one hit wonders, obviously. No one knew who Owl City, Far East Movement, Gotye, Baauer, Magic!, Omi, etc. were when they debuted their one and only hits but the public bought them and got them to the top, some before the streaming age. And yes, ROM was a hit despite only being #1 for one week because the public liked it as well as the fans. We know this because it didn't tumble dramatically from #1 the very next week. Nicki's songs on the other hand, all dropped like a stone in their second weeks, never to be seen again. That's the classic sign of a song that had no public support as only the public can keep a song going.

Please re-read the comment you are replying to. I was talking about songs that debut at #1.

Hot In It, Despechá, and now Super Freaky Girl. When did the girls get together and decide they were gonna tease their catchiest material on Tik Tok.
