Tekashi 6ix9ine and Nicki Minaj Aim for U.K.’s Highest New Debut With ‘Trollz’

Tekashi 6ix9ine and Nicki Minaj are bound for the highest new entry on the U.K. singles chart with “Trollz”.

After a busy weekend of sales and streaming activity, “Trollz” starts at No. 5 on the Official Chart: First Look.

It’s on track to secure Minaj her highest-charting single in the U.K. since Little Mix’s 2018 hit “Woman Like Me,” on which assisted. “Woman Like Me” peaked at No. 2.

Tekashi 6ix9ine has only impacted the U.K. top 10 on one occasion, with his “comeback” track “Gooba,” which hit No. 6 last month.

A portion of the proceeds from the single, including merch items, will benefit The Bail Project, Minaj explains, which provides free bail assistance to low-income individuals who can’t afford to pay bail while awaiting their trial.

Leading the U.K. sales blast is DaBaby’s reigning champ “Rockstar” featuring Roddy Ricch, which is aiming for a fifth non-consecutive week at the summit of the Official Singles Chart.

Just behind is Lady Gaga and Ariana Grande’s former leader “Rain On Me,” which is unchanged in second place.

The Official U.K. Singles Chart is published Friday evening local time.
