National Month of Women Series: Cardi B Passes Beyoncé To Become First Woman With 5 Top 10 Hits

Cards B is a chart-topping female superstar checking off goals and cranking out hits becoming the first woman and only the third musical act who has  recently had five of the top 10 hits on Billboard’s Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart in a single week.

Cardi B stated on Instgram January 2, “What a great way to start my Year.Thank you Lord .Only you and i know how much i pray to you.These last few weeks been too much for me but my Lord always find a way to uplift me .Thank you to my fans ,DJS ,Team for the support .Thanks to all the artist who featured me In thesee songs and thanks guys for showing my second single BARTIER CARDI some love 😍😍😍😍💕💕💕💪🏾💪🏾I love you”

She places five singles in the top 10 Billboard charts on January 20, 2018 tying Drake and Kendrick Lamar for the most concurrent top 10s.

Drake has done it eight times (all in 2016) and Lamar has done it once in 2017.

Here’s how all 5 songs rank on the charts:
#1 Bruno Mars featuring Cardi B “Finesse” (Remix)
#3 G-Eazy featuring Cardi B “No Limit”
#4 Migos featuring Cardi B and Nicki Minaj “Motorsport”
#7 Cardi B “Bartier Cardi”
#10 Cardi B “Bodak Yellow”

Billboard’s Trevor Anderson reports that in addition to “Finesse,” Cardi B ranks in the top 10 of Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs with a featured role on G-Eazy’s “No Limit,” which slides from its No. 2 high to No. 3, “Motorsport,” a collaboration with Migos and Nicki Minaj, which retreats 3-4, “Bartier Cardi,” up 9-7 and “Bodak Yellow (Money Moves)”, a non-mover at No. 10.

Cardi B is the only artist to achieve the feat with her first five chart entries. Her producer from Kansas City, Kan., helped her rise to stardom with her first hit single “Bodack Yellow (Money Moves). ” The last solo female rapper at No. 1 was Lauryn Hill in 1998 with “Doo Wop (That Thing).”

While Cardi B and Beyoncé have different music styles and flows, Beyoncé has more experience with music and different styles because she’s older ( Beyoncé is 36) and Cardi B is younger and still learning her way (Cardi B is 25). Her stardom started with her on a popular show called “Love and Hip Hop New York” and it also helped that her fiancé, Offset, featured her in some of his songs (i.e. Motorsport). Cardi B is from the Bronx, New York so her music style is more hardcore rap and unfiltered while Beyoncé is from Houston, Texas so her style is more versatile.

Cardi B was worth $600,000 at the start of September 2017. However following the success of ‘Bodak Yellow’, that figure has reportedly risen to $4 million, however, Beyonce is worth over $350 million.
