Cardi B keeps on winning as it was recently announced that the Bronx native has now become the first female rapper ever to land 3 Billboard Hot 100 singles in the top spot.
Cardi previously set the record for being the first female to have 2 Hot 100 singles go no. 1 just months ago with her single “I Like It,” but now thanks to her Maroon 5 collaboration, “Girls Like You” which just went no. 1, she now has three.
The track peaked at the top of the chart on Monday, and knocked Drake’s hit single “In My Feelings” out of the no. 1 spot which it held for 10 week. This marks the 25-year-old’s second no. 1 song this year.
.@iamcardib was previously the only female rapper with two #Hot100 No. 1s.
She extends her record as “Girls Like You” becomes her third.
