Global rap superstar Nicki Minaj continues to prove why she remains the undisputed Queen of Rap, as she reaches a new milestone on Spotify — surpassing 46 million monthly listeners for the first time in 2025.
According to recent streaming data, the Trinidadian-born rapper now boasts 46,117,895 monthly listeners, gaining more than 166,000 new fans in just one day and over 1 million new listeners this week — all without releasing any new music this year.
This achievement cements Nicki’s position as one of the most-streamed and most influential female artists in the world. What makes the feat even more impressive is that she’s currently the only female rapper experiencing a major surge in listeners across global streaming platforms.
Fans have been celebrating the news under hashtags like #NickiMinaj and #QueenOfRap, crediting her consistency, lyrical dominance, and timeless hits such as Super Bass, Anaconda, Starships, and Red Ruby Da Sleeze for keeping her audience hooked.
Despite not dropping new material in 2025, Nicki’s presence remains unshakable — thanks to her extensive catalogue, collaborations, and strong fanbase known as the Barbz, who continue to stream her music daily.
Nicki Minaj reinforces her reign as not just a rapper, but a global music powerhouse whose legacy continues to grow — even in silence.
