    super bass and anaconda were pretty much #1's, they were only blocked because of how strong the songs at #1 were

    So then it was number 2 right?

    But number one is about dominance. And the fact that she wasn’t the most dominant that means carries weight. Plus think about this. She has had other chances but have failed.

    Paper Planes did better than Swagga Like Us by every metric tho. Certifications, sales, billboard and streaming.

    Just look at Spotify - over 300m streams vs 30 million streams

    what all this stuff you wrote means to you, it doesn't mean the same in the US literally no one mutters her name ever

    I was going off US stats not UK status.

    In the US Paper Planes sold 3x what Swagga Like Us sold in the US. It charted higher on the Billboard Hot 100 top 5 in the US. It made the top 40 Billboard songs of that year in the US. It was XL's biggest hit ever till Adele in the US.

    These are all US stats

    yeah but people ITT are talking about 13 years ago, when she would have been one of the hottest pop acts in the US.

    And you basically implied Swagga Like Us is bigger than Paper Planes which is just objectively wrong.

    MIA would have probably made a comeback in 2012 when Bad Girls was blowing up and she performed at the Super Bowl, but she got sued by the NFL. The NFL suing her was a pretty big deal, so I think what you're saying could only be true by like 2013/14. It would still make her the most successful artist of her type ever. so that probably means something to some people even if that's not you. At that point she was still getting name dropped a lot by everybody from Beyonce to Nicki (Nicki's lines in Monster are about her friendship with MIA)

    Missy

    She stopped in 05 but went strong from 97

    Was Queen a hot record from Nicki? I don’t remember anything from that album doing well

    Queen was overhated. It was ok.

    Lol a lot of artist have classics.

    Disagree.

    Term gets thrown around too heavily for rap music.

    I think people need to expand their listening to different genres

    it might be a classic over in the UK but here in the states she's more popular for being the girl on swagga like us than she is for paper planes.... Let alone the album it came from

    She barely has a classic SONG

    Edit: this aurocorrects to Superb Ass, which I'm going to assume is intentional

    Every album a classic since every album ever made a classic on here

  • A lot of women think pink print is classic if you ask them

    So I don’t know

    And MIA doesn’t have American classic albums but U.K. may be different
