Nicki Minaj continues to set records.

The Young Money artist's song "Super Bass" is the biggest single by a female rapper in nearly a decade according to Billboard.

The song, which has been sitting on Billboard's Hot 100 chart for 14 weeks, moved up a spot from No. 4 to No. 3, becoming the highest-charting Hot 100 rap hit by a solo female rapper since Missy Eliot's "Work It" in 2002.

In addition to " Super Bass," Minaj has also made the top 10 as a featured artist on songs by Trey Songz's "Bottoms Up" (No. 6) and Britney Spears' "Till the World Ends" (No. 3).

"Nicki isn't like any other female rapper," Cash Money co-founder/co-CEO Ronald "Slim" Williams told Billboard, "We knew she had the goods when Lil Wayne signed her. She's not a female rapper -- she's a pop star who happens to rap."

1.91 million people have copped "Super Bass" via digital download in 2011. While Nicki's album 'Pink Friday' has sold more than 1.5 million copies since it's Nov. 22, 2010 release.
