Nicki Minaj, the reigning queen of rap, has clinched a long-awaited triumph at the 2024 Grammy Awards.
Despite being hailed as the most successful female rapper in history, Minaj had, until now, notably lacked a Grammy win, making her one of the most-nominated artists without a trophy.
With an impressive dozen nominations under her belt, the coveted Grammy seemed difficult.
The breakthrough finally arrived at the 2024 Grammy Awards, where Minaj, alongside collaborator Ice Spice, secured nominations for
Best Rap Song and Best Song Written for Visual Media for their chart-topping single, “Barbie World,” featured in the Barbie film and its soundtrack.
In a delightful twist for her devoted fans, often referred to as the ‘Barbz,’ Nicki Minaj emerged victorious, clinching the Grammy for Best Song Written for Visual Media.
The win not only marked a historic moment in Minaj’s illustrious career but also solidified “Barbie World” as another massive hit for the rap sensation and propelled Ice Spice into the limelight as one of the hottest new stars in the music industry.
The single’s success propelled both artists back into the upper echelons of the Hot 100 chart, with “Barbie World” reaching an impressive No. 7 position.
