Cardi Can’t Keep Her Joy To Herself

Cardi B is on year three of proving haters wrong. In 2017, she dominated the charts with “Bodak Yellow” which many thought would be her only hit, but clearly, they were wrong. She dominated 2018 with the release of her debut album, Invasion Of Privacy which earned a Grammy win for Best Rap Album.

Cardi B‘s been racking up accolades though. Earlier today, it was announced that she was nominated for 21 Billboard Awards. The Bronx rapper hit Instagram to express her gratitude.

Cardi B took to Instagram to thank her followers and fans for supporting her on her journey in the rap game.

She intro’d the video by saying she’s doing the video, “justlbby-style” — due to looking like a stale Cheeto — before diving into her thanking the fans. “I feel like that bitch right now,” she said about the nominations.

“I remember when all I ever wanted to do was chart on the Hot 100 charts,” Cardi B said in the video.
