At a mere 10 years old, North, the eldest child of Ye and Kim Kardashian (who parted ways in 2022), has become one of the youngest artists to grace the charts. Similarly, Blue Ivy Carter, daughter of Jay-Z and Beyoncé, made waves by entering the Hot 100 at the tender age of 7 in 2019 with her contribution to “Brown Skin Girl.” Notably, her presence on Jay-Z’s “Glory,” with her initials B.I.C., marked her debut on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart in 2012, establishing her as the youngest artist to be credited on any Billboard chart.
“Talking” marks North West’s first foray into rapping. The eldest child of Ye and Kim Kardashian adopts the moniker “Miss Westie” in the song, declaring, “It’s your bestie. Miss, Miss Westie. Don’t try to test me, it’s gonna get messy. It’s gonna get messy. Just, just bless me,” as she shares her lyrics.
It seems Miss Westie’s verse on the track has earned her a significant accolade, as she secures the 30th spot on Billboard’s Hot 100 list dated February 24, 2024. This achievement suggests she’s someone worth keeping an eye on in the future.
Every track from Vultures 1 made its mark on the Hot 100 list, not just “Talking.” Remarkably, all 16 songs entered the chart. Surprisingly, “Carnival” emerged as the highest-ranked, securing the third spot on the all-genre list, trailing behind Jack Harlow’s “Lovin On Me” and Beyoncé’s “Texas Hold’ Em.” Additionally, the album soared to the summit of the Billboard 200 chart for the week.
While “Talking” may not have reached the highest position, claiming the 30th spot on the chart signifies North West’s inaugural presence on the Billboard chart. As noted by the prominent X account Chart Data, this achievement also positions her among the youngest artists ever to grace the list.
As per Billboard, the youngest artist to debut on the chart was French singer Jordy, who entered at the tender age of five with the song “Dur dur d’être bébé! (It’s Tough to Be a Baby!)” Meanwhile, the youngest soloist to claim the top spot was Stevie Wonder with “Fingertips – Pt 2,” achieving this feat at just 13 years old.
