(GEMS RADIO)- One of the year’s top talents, Ice Spice, has maintained her dominance over the music industry. Ice Spice’s status as one of the year’s biggest performers keeps growing, as she now has more Billboard Hot 100 songs than any other artist in 2023.

Ice Spice Now Has More Billboard Hot 100 Songs Than Any Other Artist This Year

According to Chart Data, the Bronx rapper has achieved the most Top 5 hits this year, dominating the charts with three major singles: “Karma” featuring Taylor Swift, currently at No. 2 on the chart; “Princess Diana” with Nicki Minaj, which peaked at No. 4; and “Boy’s A Liar” with PinkPantheress, which peaked at No. 3.

Her victories don’t end there. It was revealed last month that Ice Spice beat Nicki Minaj’s previous record. According to Chart Data, the hot Bronx rapper received the most streaming debut for a female rapper on Spotify globally thanks to “Karma.”

The song received 5.036 million streams on the platform on its first day after being made available at the end of last month as a bonus track on Swift’s brand-new album Midnights. This made “Karma” the top new entry, driving it to No. 5 on the global Spotify list.

Ice Spice Owns Her Music Rights

Ice Spice’s management claimed she still owns all her music rights. In a recent interview, the rapper and her manager discussed her business savvy. They also discussed her ascent to fame after making her debut in August 2022. They survived a bidding conflict and won a joint contract with Capitol Records and 10K Records. Through this agreement, Ice Spice received publication rights, master ownership, and creative autonomy.

She has complete control over her songs without any influence from the label. She can set her schedule and autonomously make artistic judgments thanks to the partnership with 10K Records. Thanks to this degree of independence, the rapper is well-positioned for ongoing success in the music business.
