Charlamagne Tha God is all sorts of renowned for saying what is on his mind. And his latest set of remarks have tongues wagging.
During a candid segment on the latest edition of The Breakfast Club, the revered host said that he believes Cardi B is to female Hip-Hop what Jay-Z and Drake are to the genre for males.
Full story below…
Anchoring his stance in his Cardi’s embrace of upcoming talent, Charlamagne shared:
“Cardi B did for female Rap what Jay-Z and Drake did. The OG who sold all the records, made all the money and you have no problem putting your arms around the next person”

***********
Folk will focus on the heavyweight names he put her alongside, but the specificities of what he’s praising Cardi for are facts from our vantage point and really ought to be studied and adapted by others.
That whole “embrace not beef” mentality Cardi has is what has extended her reign in the absence of that elusive second album.
From GloRilla to Latto to Scar Lip to countless others, Cardi has made it routine to lend her reach and platform to those coming after her.
Avoiding the mistakes of others, who would assert dominance over newcomers, she has flipped the narrative. And, as a result, reaps the benefits both culturally and commercially. Granted there will always be an air of competition in Hip-Hop (and music more broadly), there also is undeniable strength in numbers. A memo Cardi clearly gets.

This n*gga just wants to go viral with this comment because he knows it stirs the por. The world collectively laughed when they read this. We all know he is indirectly coming at The Queen who also has alot of songs with new comers.
Next callerrrrr
The 40 year old Queen whose sound is dated, wardrobe is tired and gained 30 lbs…yea ok got ya. #nogrammy
💯
But yet she has still worked with more female rappers in the last couple years than faces and unlike faces her songs actually do numbers ur at least gunna get a cute #1 on itunes for having nicki on ur s*** cant even tell u the last time cardi has seen the top of itunes
NO LIES TOLD HERE! Cardi is the staple for a viral hit song, ppl listen when she jumps on a track! Haters drink bleach
Cardi is nothing but a wave rider. She lost her budget and clout, so now she’s using the other girlies and it STILL isn’t working 😂 Put It In The Trash is NOWHERE to be found on the charts. And she hasn’t had a SOLO hit in YEARS. This stripper heaux is SHELVED N WASHED 🧼
Not having a solo hit in years >>>> taking 15 years to have 1 solo hit 😆 cardi been there DONE THAT!
Baby cardi last #1 was 5 years ago thats half a decade, you know why cuz shes already peaked, my b**** nicki still peaking STAY MAD
Cardi’s last #1 was in 2021 babes and she still has more than Arms. And IOP is still charting 5 years later. Arms Albums are nowhere to be found hunny. Y’all Garbs better keep up with the streaming farms to get her a quick hit that’ll plunge into the nether regions of the charts in her 2nd week. Low budget ass hoooeeee.
LOL all this talk but you still can’t tell us what “impact” Cardiac Arrest has and what noise her CURRENT music is making 😂 all her latest singles FLOPPED 💀
B**** you shouldnt talk about plummeting because thats all cardi been doing lately AND she dont even debut top ten, which is hilarious cuz she said all her feature live in the top ten, however the last couple years nicki been having stable hits, s*** princess diana still number 53 and that came out damn near 3 months ago it was 53 last week too because you know its stable
B**** she cant even give her fans a second album because her label know shes a money pit, thats what happens when you have to pay writers, and pay publications and radio personalities to lie so you can make it seem like ur competition for the nicki minaj this b**** cant even right a decent verse to save her life how in gods green earth could she have helped anyone
His hate for the queen is apparent. How a b**** with one album from 5 years ago change anything😂😂😂
Right she cant even right a verse and he talking about changed the game
LOL 😂 every knows that Cardi’s rap career is in turmoil. Even the Titanic submarine guy said it. The world sees behind the smoke and mirrors. And we all know the Breakfast Club don’t fck w Nicki. This is so comical. I have to laugh 🤣🤣🤣
You are #DISGUSTING 🤮
Not as much as u are, youre clearly not a cardi fan but a nicki hater and thats why cardi dont sell for s*** because all her “fans” are just nocki haters
This man is bugged out WTF is he saying. Cardi is just a puppet in hip hop. Without her team she’s absolutely nothing. All her songs sound the same and she talk about the same thing all the time. Nicki can have any negativity attached to her name, but you can’t deny her impact in hip hop. How she stood out, how she did, on a song full of male heavy hitters, cmon. I’m not even a Nicki stan, but Blazin is forever 🔥. Ok I’m done! Haha
Stop licking Nikki cliterus u cl!t flea…. 👅
Nikki is ELEMENTARY with a WEAK catalog
Only got by because of LACK OF COMPETITION
Nikki won Grammy for best RAP album not female…
RAP
because cardi is RAP Nikki is a POP STAR
Cardi with 1 Album is PERFECTLY on par with Nikki 15 year career.
Is that why she took a year and a half to become the highest selling female rapper and shes kept that title since 2012
CARDI won a Grammy for best RAP album not female…
RAP.
Cardi is RAP, Nikki is just a POP STAR.
Is that why nicki can actually write raps and spit circles around cardi and cardi cant even write a decent verse to save her life
Cardi keeps y’all pressed LMAO!!! Nicki old dusty ass still ain’t that girl. She ain’t been relevant since Starshipz.
💯
Hmm but nicki has actually had a number 1 this decade as for cardi not so much
All Cardi did was open the door for untalented stripper reality show whoreszz to rebrand themselves as rappers. No talent really all Cardi has going for herself is personality. N
No one can explain or show us Cardi’s “impact” 🤣🤣🤣 what a JOKE 💀
NO IMPACT ????????
During nikki’s reign there was a DROUGHT.
Now, in Cardi’s CURRENT Reign there is a FLOOD.
No cardi = NO icespice/dojacat/stallion/saweetie/latto ETC
Cardi b actually created new DEMAND 🫴
Cardi b is the sole reason for why there are SO MANY FEMALE RAPPERS and probably more out now than EVER.
Nikki opened no doors for any female rappers, CARDI B did with BODAK YELLOW which went #1 b4 Nikki could even DREAM of having a SOLO #1 hit
Gurl shut the hell up 😂
This is a COMPLETE LIE 💀
When Nicki was out, we also had Azealia Banks, Iggy Azalea, M.I.A., Yung Ma, Dej Loaf and many more…
You raggedy heauxs just didn’t pay them any mind. But this drought narrative and “Nicki was the only one out” narrative is TIRED like you are after that 4th meal.
Cardi is NOT a trendsetter.
Cardi is NOT impactful.
Cardi does NOT write her OWN raps.
Please show me where is 2023 where Cardi is thriving and bussin in this CURRENT climate. I’m listening 👂🏾👀
Meanwhile, Nicki is the ONLY female rapper with a debut #1 solo single in 2022
Currently has over 6 charting songs on the billboard. Including SOLO records 🤣🤣🤣🤣
You thought you ate, but Cardi is a botched washed industry plant. That’s why Atlantic gave her budget to Nicki and Ice for Barbie World 🤣🤣🤣🤣
No cardi b =
No glorilla
No rubi rose
No ice spice
No city girls
Etc
Cardi b is the 👑 of Rap
LOL 😂 the world thinks otherwise. We all see that her current rap career is in SHAMBLES 💀 When was the last time she had a solo chart topping hit? Please riddle me that 🤣🤣🤣
Okay, so we are just gonna act like UP was released 40 years ago… 🙄
In the words of nipsey hussle…
“THIS IS A MARATHON
NOT A RACE!”
Up?!?! 😮💨😂🤣🤣🤣🤣
The song written by Pardison Fontaine?
That ass of a record literally came out almost 3 years ago 💀 Bardi fans are the dumbest and bottom of the barrel. Will absolutely settle for LESS 🤣🤣🤣 we love that for y’all 💖
If it wasnt for the nicki minaj female rap woulda died in 2011, matter fact nicki played a big part in artist getting paid for streams and having them count for billboard so quite literally cardi wouldnt have a career if it wasnt for nicki because she dont sell for s***, i mean she cant even sell out a single arena
When Nicki was out, we also had Azealia Banks, Iggy Azalea, M.I.A., Yung Ma, Dej Loaf and many more…
😆

“When was the last time she had a solo chart topping hit? Please riddle me that 🤣🤣🤣”
Ok, so we are just gonna pretend that UP was released 40+ years ago… 🙄
In the words of nipsey hussle…
“THIS IS A MARATHON
NOT A RACE!”
Cardi still has MORE solo #1 hits than that old tired WHALE 🐋 nikki
YOU’RE LOSING THIS ONE BABE 😂
HANG IT UP…FLATSCREEN 🤣🤣🤣🤣
“Cardi still has MORE solo #1 hits than that old tired WHALE 🐋 nikki”
^ you win after you post a supporting argument for why a NO TALENT jezabel like cardi still has more #1 hits and more solo #1 hits and more grammys than yur fav
You better hope cardi never does a solo WORLD TOUR because if she ever does the entire world will finally wake up to.who the REAL queen of rap is.
1 album ended Nikki entire catalog 😆 🤣 😂
Solo tour?!! 😂
The btch can’t even sell out an auditorium 🤣🤣🤣🤣
The jokes write themselves 💀
Keep on hoping and wishing… ✨
ICE SPICE ENDED CARDI 🎀
“It Girls, and we ain’t playing TAG”
💖💖💖💖
Barbie World #7 on Billboard 💕
Put It In The Trash 🗑️ bubbling under 😂😂😂😂
Babes she doesnt do a world tour because she knows shell be embarrassed because no body would but it, she couldnt even sell out summer jam in a year they had to downgrade from an arena because her being the headliner wasnt moving any f****** tickets
LMAO!
Cardi must be in her bag. I know Charlamagne did NOT say this BS without a check. Charlemagne you gets donkey of the day.
Cardi has ZERO Impact in Hip-Hop. All the girls wanna work with Nicki. All the girls wanna sound like Nicki. No one wanna sound like someone who has a mouth full of mashed potatoes while they’re rapping.
Nicki is WASHED💦🧼🧽🫧🛀🏾
I can’t wait for her to announce the so called world tour this fall. That will REALLY show if she’s really this queen y’all Twitter f*** claim her to be. I see it having the same fate as her Q**** World Tour. “POSTPONED” but 5 years later we still waiting for those dates. 🤪
💯 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣 🤣
B**** ur girl fails to sell out a one off arena date you shouldnt talk nucki has been on several world tours
