“CARDI B VOCALS IS IN,” Khaled wrote in the caption of all his posts. “101%%% JAMIE UPDATE THE TRACKLIST NOW!!!! #KHALEDKHALED TONIGHT MIDNIGHT!!! IMA GIVE U A LIGHT SHOW.”
Khaled took his excitement a step further and posted a video of Michael Jordan’s iconic last shot against the Utah Jazz in the closing seconds of the 1998 NBA Finals with Cardi’s head attached to Air Jordan’s body.
“THE FANS IS GOING IN,” Khaled wrote. “CARIDI B WIT THE BUZZER BEATER ! WOW ! Wait to your hear the @iamcardib vocals WOW!!!!!!!!!!

On Thursday (April 30)????
You lot need to check what you are putting out before going to press.
That can’t be real. Just a publicity stunt. Your calling on a bunch of third parties to finish something within 24 hours that can’t be done simultaneously. From completing the track to exchanging the song with all the distribution platforms, you really couldn’t count on it being done in time unless you had a few days.
haha its real now u look dumb she made its in less than 48 hours you flop
You dont follow logic very well. The song was done all along, they just waited to add her name on the track list to make people who don’t know how the process works jump for joy.
