Cardi B’s breakthrough hit “Bodak Yellow” reached a new milestone over the weekend. As pointed out by Chart Data, Cardi’s diamond-certified single crossed the billion-view mark on YouTube and “Bodak Yellow” became the quickest to reach the benchmark by a female rapper ever.
The Bronx bombshell reacted to the news on Monday morning (August 2) by explaining the video was born out of a $15,000 budget and she let fans know she’s ready to get back to the studio to continue working on her anticipated sophomore album even while expecting a baby in September.
“Fifteen thousand dollars, A billion views later,” she wrote. “Wow that’s crazy! Super dope. Thank you all for all the support throughout the years….. Back to the lab. Love & appreciate y’all.”
“Bodak Yellow” went 10x-platinum and officially became recognized as diamond-certified by the RIAA on International Women’s Day in March. Cardi B made history as the first female rapper to ever earn a diamond plaque. The single powered Cardi into her Invasion of Privacy debut, where every song on the album is at least gold — making her the first woman to accomplish that feat as well.

You YMCMB haters are fucking idiots. Because I’m an accountant for Cash Money Records, I spend a lot of time with Birdman. He told me that in 96, Biggie was looking to get out of his contract with Bad Boy so he could sign with Cash Money. If Cash Money is right for Biggie, then it’s clearly the top record label. Unfortunately, Jay-Z and Diddy found out about Biggie’s upcoming departure and had him shot. Also, Birdman as always a role model for Pac. Most of you don’t know this, but the song Hit Em Up was originally supposed to be Split Em Up, a song where Pac brags about fucking Faith, leading to her breakup with BIG. But Birdman explained to Pac that real gangsta’s talking about killing people, so that’s how Hit Em Up took on such a violent tone. YMCMB for life. We got the game by the clit.
Dude. It was only MARGINALLY funny the 1st time. You’re fucking lame bro. Either you sit there and type out this dumbass nonsense every time or you have it saved in your clipboard to paste it. Either way you’re lame as fuck.
