Cardi B: the New Nicki Minaj

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Seton Hall chapter.

American hip-hop artist Cardi B has been on the come up this past year. Her claim to fame has been made throughout the hit single “Bodak Yellow” as it climbed to #1 on the billboards top 100, making her the second female rapper to top the Hot 100 without any other billed artists. Clearly, Cardi B has some real talent, which has caused some artists to feel threatened by the competition. In particular, rumors have spread that concerns beef with fellow rap artist Nicki Minaj. Whether the beef was real or not, here’s some reasons as to why Cardi B is all around a better artist.

  1.  SHE REAL AF! Tells it like it is.
  2. She stunts on these hoes! Red bottoms only.
  3. She hit the top 100 with no help from no mans/womans! We independent out hur.
  4. She is proud of who she is and doesn’t let NO ONE change her.
  5. Her Instagram is filled with videos of her preaching that always leaves you smiling.
  6. She came out and gave multiple interviews negating the alleged rumors.

Clearly, both artists in their own right have traits that make them exceptional singers. However, you don’t see Nicki at the top solo! Regardless, Nicki congratulated Cardi once she hit the #1 spot, which defused the rumors. Cardi, they hate you cause they aint you!
