Cardi B continues to smash it and is once again making history on the Billboard charts. The "Bodak Yellow" hit maker is now in a league where their first three singles have reached the Top 10 of the Billboard Hot 100 at the same time. The rapper has "No Limit" with G-Eazy and A$AP Rocky in the fourth spot, "MotorSport" with Migos and Nicki Minaj at number seven, and "Bodak Yellow" at number ten.

With this achievement the Bronx-diva joins the ranks of The Beatles that achieved this feat when they took the Top 3 spots with "I Want To Hold Your Hand", "She Loves You" and "Please Please Me," respectively. Ashanti also accomplished this with "Foolish", "What's Luv?" and "Always On Time."

In September 2017, Cardi B made history with "Bodak Yellow" as the first female rapper to top the Hot 100 Billboard music chart in 19 years and the first rapper of Dominican descent to ever reach that place in the chart. The previous record holder was Lauryn Hill, who topped the chart with no other billed artist. Cardi B, from the Bronx, had the number two spot last week and was able to overtake and dethrone "Look What You Made Me Do" by Taylor Swift. The Dominican rapper even threw a little shade at the former queen when she celebrated her number one spot by singing the chorus of the tune she toppled.

Cardi B, born Belcalis Almanzar to a Dominican father and Trinidadian mother, grew up in the South Bronx. She is only the fifth female rapper to top the Hot 100 after Lil' Kim who was featured on "Lady Marmalade," Shawnna who collaborated with Ludacris on "Stand Up," Iggy Azalea who led with "Fancy" along with Charli XCX. According to Billboard, Cardi B is also the first female solo artist to lead the Hot 100 list with no featured artist since Meghan Trainor's "All About That Bass."

There are rumors that Cardi B and Jennifer Lopez will be teaming up on a new track soon. DJ Khaled recently teased to be working on a track with JLo that we saw during an Instagram Live that Alex Rodriguez shared and now a second leak insinuates that the "Bodak Yellow" hitmaker is part of that collab as well.

"WHEN J LO PULLS UP TO WE THE BEST STUDIO! Icon moment alert! Icon announcement alert. Icon visual alert. Icon everything ALERT!!! @jlo got New music coming . Be Paitient!!! Patience is a gift and a talent, he wrote on Instagram. He then teased and questioned who else it would feature. “I told the icon @jlo that not only do I see her vision. I am honored and grateful to have the opportunity to be involved. The key is to express your greatness with clarity and passion,” Khaled wrote.
