Kanye West Passes Nicki Minaj With His New Hot 100 Hits
Kanye West dominates the Hot 100 this week, though not with a new No. 1. The controversial rapper and his collaborator Ty Dolla
$ign claim the most space on the chart this frame thanks to the immediate popularity of their joint album, Vultures 1. As the two own a
bevy of new wins on the tally, the hip-hop powerhouse advances on an all-time ranking and passes one of his colleagues.
This week, West and $ign debut 16 songs on the Hot 100. All those tunes are featured on Vultures 1, which sends its entire tracklist to
the ranking of the most-consumed tracks in the U.S. Those quick hits bring West’s career total to 157 appearances on the tally.
With 157 Hot 100 hits now to his credit, West advances on the list of the musicians with the most wins on the chart in history. He now
sits in sixth place. Before Vultures 1 arrived, he was in seventh, but now he’s passed his closest competitor.
Minaj also recently added to her historic total. In December, she released her long-awaited new album Pink Friday 2. That project sent
quite a few songs to the Hot 100, upping her count significantly.
