Cardi B is making history!

The 28-year-old rapper’s breakout single “Bodak Yellow” has been certified diamond, the Recording Industry Association of America announced on Monday (March 8).

“Bodak Yellow” has now moved to 10 million units, and according to the RIAA, one equivalent song unit is equal to a single digital song sale, or 150 on-demand audio and/or video streams.

Cardi is the first female rapper in history to achieve this milestone.

It was also revealed that Cardi‘s song “WAP” with Megan Thee Stallion is halfway there with its 5x multi-platinum status.

After the announcement was made, Cardi took to Twitter to celebrate the milestone while sharing a video of her label Atlantic Records surprising her with the diamond certified plaque while they were at a restaurant.

“I just want to say thank you guys so much because without you guys, it wouldn’t have happened,” Cardi said to fans in a video. “It really made my day. And it really uplifted me.”

If you missed it, Cardi will soon be starring in a new movie.

Cardi B is giving fans a taste of what’s to come after some people complained that she hasn’t released a new album yet.

The 28-year-old rapper’s first and only album so far, Invasion of Privacy, was released in April 2018 and she hasn’t given any details on when a new one can be expected. She has still been releasing new music though, with songs like “WAP” and “Up” already becoming big hits.

Cardi deleted her Twitter account this week after she was sick of fans asking for new music and criticizing her for doing other projects in the meantime.

Now, Cardi is back after a brief absence and she shared a snippet of new song!

“I announced my 2018 album [on] March 11th,” Cardi tweeted. For those that don’t know, she was pregnant at the time. “I knew I had to drop in April because by may my stomach was going to be to big to do music videos. That’s why I like it was the last music video I made ….Soo please tell me when did I ever wait on others to drop beside my stomach?”

Cardi B is taking some time off Twitter.

The 28-year-old “WAP” rapper deactivated her Twitter account on Friday (March 5) after receiving some backlash from her impatient fans for releasing a custom doll rather than a new album.

Cardi took to Instagram to rant about fan backlash for her latest business endeavor.

“I have so much pressure. I’m working on a lot of s–t to please people…I wanna please my fans, because y’all been asking for something from me for a very long time that I can’t say, and I’m doing it for ya…’eh, you’re dropping a f–king doll, we want an album!’ How am I supposed to be rich? How am I supposed to build my net worth?” she said on an Instagram Live.

“BARDI GANG!! I’m dropping my own doll TODAY! Inspired by me. Created by me. Designed by me,” she wrote on her Instagram. Click here to see the doll!

Cardi also got candid about “insulting” pay disparity in a recent interview.

Cardi B is opening up about the well known pay disparity in the music and fashion industry in her new feature with Interview magazine.

During a conversation with Mariah Carey, the 28-year-old “WAP” rapper dished on how insulting it really is to be paid less than her white counterparts.

“I don’t know if I would use the word ‘racism’ because everything is so technical right now. I have felt prejudice,” Cardi revealed.

She went on, “I have been involved in endorsement deals, and then I found out that certain white people got more money for their deals from the same company,” she shared. “I do my research. I know how much money I made [from] that company. My fans buy my s–t. So it’s like, ‘When you’re not paying me what you’re paying these other people, why is that?’ It’s kind of insulting.”

Mariah agreed with Cardi‘s statements, however, it’s been a bit different for her in a way.

“I have it a different way because people don’t know how to categorize me sometimes, and that sucks,” she said. “But I think people should listen to the words you say because you’re saying it from firsthand experience. You’ve gotten less than other artists who are not artists of color, and yet your influence has been way broader. So let’s fix that.”

This isn’t the first time Cardi has spoken about about prejudice. In late 2020, she clapped back at haters online who didn’t think a person of color should own or could own as many Birkin bags as she has.

If you missed it, Cardi just recently dropped a new music video her for latest single, “Up”. Check it out here!
