Rae Sremmurd’s “Black Beatles” finally knocked Chainsmokers out of the No. 1 spot on the Hot 100 chart. So Nicki Minaj did her own cover to celebrate. 

The rapper posted the remix, titled “Black Barbies,” on Instagram, writing: “Cuz 2 Lil black kids got the NUMBER 1 RECORD IN THE COUNTRY.” The track quickly trended on Twitter.
