The tweet attracted a variety of responses, with some people taking offence to her expressing her thoughts on politics, which in the past she never shied away from. However, amid criticism from figures like Ben Shaprio, disapproval of the use of big cats in Tiger King's Carole Baskin's music video, and anger at the inclusion of a Kylie Jenner cameo in a video mostly featuring black female artists, WAP debuted at number one on the Billboard charts this week.
According to data from Nielsen Music / MRC, the track has made history by pulling in just six days in a total of 93 million streams in the US alone which is the most for any album ever in its first week of release.
