After seeing huge success with the singles such as ‘Bodak Yellow,’ ‘I Like It,’ and ‘Girls Like You,’ Cardi B has revealed she felt “a lot of pressure” to deliver another hit.
More details below…
Sitting down with SiriusXM, the ‘WAP’ rapper discussed the anxiety she faced after achieving mammoth wins from her debut album ‘Invasion of Privacy.‘ An LP which spawned two #1 hits for the superstar.
She said:
“I just felt like I was under a lot of pressure, like if you don’t have like a super crazy smash, it’s like, ‘Oh you flop, flop, flop.’ The song could be like 2x platinum.
‘You’re always under pressure and then I feel like it’s not fair because there are male artists that will go two years without putting a fu**ing song out and they don’t be like, ‘Oh, you’re irrelevant. It’s over for you.’
With singles such as ‘Press‘ and ‘Money‘ not achieving the same success as some of her previous efforts, the rapper revealed to the radio station that the pressure started to “crush” her.
She added:
“I didn’t put out songs for nine months and it’s like, ‘Oh, she’s irrelevant. She’s over. She’s a flop. We told you that.’ That type of shit started to get to me, like crush me.”
****
We admire Cardi’s honesty. While it’s great to be on top of the charts, many other artists have echoed the same sentiments as the rapper, from Katy Perry to Lady Gaga.
Though she may have felt the pressure, she most definitely shrugged off the unbelievers with the huge hit ‘WAP‘ with Megan Thee Stallion, which sits at an impressive #2 on the Billboard Hot 100 after spending four weeks at #1.
Kudos to Cardi!
Brainless demonic w****
With the biggest comeback of the year proved y’all wrong 😂😂
Thanks to all the white girls who are obsessed with it. Just look at then on TikTok. Blacks like you don’t buy or even stream music.
The fact that she said MONEY BAG wasn’t released as a single because it sounds like Bodak tells me that Cardi will be FARTING out #1 singles like Rihanna used to for YEARS to come
LMAO CUZ UR FLOP ASS CANNOT WRITE!! SHE MEANT TO SAY SHE WAS U PRESSURE TO FIND ANOTHER GHOST WRITER TO WRITE HER A HIT. NICKI PENS ALL OF HER HITS POSSUM! THATS JUST ONE OF THE MANY
DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THIS FLOP AND QUEEN NICKI..
Coming from a nicki stan lmao. Nicki can only get a #1 if she rides someone else’s wave. None of her solo or lead singles have gone #1. Hell most of her singles over the past years have bombed lmao
Explains why she needed Meg & Kylie Jenner…. it’s never about the art, it’s always about seeking validation these days smh
But wap is meg biggest song though sad she needed cardi to get a global worldwide hit savage was a hit but this outsold already wap is the reason meg will get a bigger budget for her videos in the future

JUST BECAUSE HE WAS CONVICTED DOESN’T MEAN HE DID IT! YOU DUMB BROKE H*** JUST LOVE HATING ON NICKI BUT SHES STILL SLAYING YOUR ASS SHAYLA! NICKI IS WINNING AND YOUR A BLOG TROLL!
Not having adoration and being called a Queen and the greatest thing to ever have been put on this planet for a mere 9 months must have been so hard for this self-obsessed narcissist.

Gurl, we understand the feeling
Camila was under alot of pressure to deliver another monster hit after Havana hit number one.
But in the end, Camila delivered an even bigger hit with senorita her second number 1 hit. 😂
The girls are still crying till this day.
Camila Cabello becomes the first and only female artist to have two songs with over 1.5 BILLION streams on Spotify.
😌😌😌😌
Yassssss!! Queens exist! 👑👑👑
She is the real queen of hip hop always great song choices and kill it all the time
The Queen is Iggy Azelea. Fancy is the longest single to sit at #1 by a female Hip-Hop artist.

Something about WAP says ALBUM TRACK to me NOT single yet bish still hit with a WW SMASH and Hit Video. Imagine what her OBVIOUS Singles sound like. 😂😂😂
Can’t wait to hear I LIKE IT part II and BODAK YELLOW 2. The fact that she said MONEY BAG wasn’t released as a single because it sounds like Bodak tells me that Cardi will be FARTING out sings like Rihanna used to for YEARS to come
CARDI AINT GOING NOWHERE
But as remy predicted Nikki is DEAD
CARDI is NEW QUEEN and Meaghan soon to be giving Cardi both REAL & HEATHY competition just makes Cardi success even more impressive
The fact that she said MONEY BAG wasn’t released as a single because it sounds like Bodak tells me that Cardi will be FARTING out #1 singles like Rihanna used to for YEARS to come
Slow news day…this interview dropped weeks ago
We love a transparent, relatable, RELEVANT queen ☺️ love cardi!!
awww the poor self-obsessed narcissist. lol Girl! WAP is trash. it only charted as high as it did because of Youtube views (for those of you that dont know that YT views factor your chart placement) Then her label has it on a stimulus package for radio spins. Ask about the pure sales of WAP… then you’ll know what im talking about. Without streams, alot of these artist would be nobodies! They really want GP to think this girl is popping waaaay more than what she is. and thats FACT!
