A new song by Jessie J has given rapper Nicki Minaj her
first UK No 1. Bang Bang, recorded by Jessie J but with Minaj and Ariana
Grande as guests, becomes the American’s most successful appearance in
the singles chart.
Oddly, Bang Bang isn’t as big of a milestone for either of Minaj’s co-stars. Grande’s Problem hit the top spot earlier this year, and Jessie J has had two prior No 1s. Minaj has never before charted higher than No 2, despite two platinum-certified singles and the biggest international profile of the three. In some ways, Bang Bang may be an advance agent for Minaj’s song Anaconda, which gets its British release in October.
