Despite years of grinding, Cardi B‘s ascend to the upper echelon of the music industry has been all sorts of rapid.

Turbo-charged by 2017’s ‘Bodak Yellow’ and a string of smash hit collaborations, the 25-year-old rocketed into the hearts, ears, and minds of the masses at lightening speed.

But it hasn’t been without its drawbacks.

In a stunning feature spread for GQ‘s May issue, Cardi opens up about how her life has changed, the drawbacks of success, and the risky measures she took to enhance her look.

She also revealed that she gets shy when meeting other stars – namely Beyonce, who she says almost made her “sh*t on herself”. And yes, those are her exact words.

Cardi B has Rihanna‘s stamp of approval!

The femcee’s debut album ‘Invasion Of Privacy’ easily serves as one of the year’s most hotly anticipated releases – and with sound reason.

Led by the blockbuster ‘Bodak Yellow,’ the LP’s release signifies more than an “album debut” – it’s the formal coronation of a bonafide star.

Bronx bred Cardi, real name Belcalis Almanzar, has fuelled her unparalleled momentum by guesting on a number of chart-igniting collaborations including ‘Finesse’ with Bruno Mars. Combined with her huge social media popularity, it’s made for the perfect storm of buzz leading into the arrival of the LP.
