'WAP' Just Broke Another ARIA Chart Record

Cardi B and Megan Thee Stallion have broken another huge ARIA Chart record with their song, WAP. 

The single has now broken the record for the most weeks at #1 on the ARIA Singles Chart by a female-led hip hop song, following its fifth straight week in the top spot. 

The record was previously held by Salt-N-Pepa's 1991 hit Let's Talk About Sex, which had four weeks at #1 in early 1992 until it was knocked to #3 on 23 February 1992 by Euphoria's Love You Right and Julian Lennon's Saltwater.

WAP first hit the ARIA Singles Chart back in August, securing lead artist Cardi B her first-ever Australian #1 single. 

Additionally, this is the first-ever female hip hop collaboration to earn the top spot on the chart. 

In the weeks following its release, WAP claimed a slew of records including "the highest streaming first week by a female artist, the highest streaming first week of 2020, and one of the top three hip-hop streaming debuts of all time" in the US, where it hit #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart.
