Lizzo Makes History With New Billboard Record

September 24, 2019

A lot of records have been set this year in regards to the Billboard Hot 100. After Lil Nas X’s 19 week run at the top, we have a new rank one…

Lizzo has gained insane career growth in the last few months, but more recently in the last four weeks, she’s been sitting pretty at the #1 position of the Billboard Hot 100 charts. Now that her fourth week has been announced, she has officially etched her name into the history books with the longest-reigning No. 1 single performed by a female rapper without any features.

According to Billboard, Lizzo is the first-ever female rapper to spend this long at the top of the Billboard Hot 100 with “Truth Hurts.” That means she has reached this achievement before high-profile femcees Nicki Minaj or Cardi B.
