It’s a landmark in pop music that only four other artists have reached, and now Nicki Minaj is the first woman, and the fifth artist overall, with 100 appearances on the Billboard Hot 100 chart.

Billboard reports that Minaj made the list for the 100th time as the featured artist on Tyga’s track “Dip,” which debuted at No. 83 on the survey dated Nov. 10.

“Just four other acts have tallied triple-digit appearance totals on the Hot 100, which blends streaming, airplay and sales data, and which turned 60 in August,” Billboard reports. “The ‘Glee’ Cast leads with 207 entries, followed by Drake (191), Lil Wayne (160) and Elvis Presley (108, with his career having predated the chart’s Aug. 4, 1958, inception).”

Taylor Swift, with 77 appearances, is the next highest-ranked female artist, followed by Aretha Franklin with 73 appearances.
