Cardi B is kicking f the new year with another historic achievement. This week, she becomes the first rapper and the third act ever to have their first three Billboard Hot 100 entries simultaneously in the top 10, following only The Beatles and Ashanti.
“I’m very happy, like very motherfucking happy,” she said in a celebratory video. “I got three songs on the top 10. You know how that make a bitch feel? … I know we all God’s children, but I think he love me the most. But y’all special too.”
Cardi achieved this major feat with “Bodak Yellow (Money Moves)” (No. 10), Migos’ “MotorSport” (No. 7), and G-Eazy’s “No Limit” (No. 4). Meanwhile, her newest solo release, “Bartier Cardi,” debuted at No. 14, and her Ozuna collaboration, “La Model,” opened at No. 52.
“What a great way to start my Year,” Cardi captioned her video. “Thank you Lord .Only you and i know how much i pray to you.These last few weeks been too much for me but my Lord always find a way to uplift me .Thank you to my fans ,DJS ,Team for the support .Thanks to all the artist who featured me I️n thesee songs and thanks guys for showing my second single BARTIER CARDI some love 😍😍😍😍💕💕💕💪🏾💪🏾I love you.”
