Overall Meaning

“Drip” is a track by American rapper Cardi B from her debut studio album “Invasion of Privacy,” the title derived from the song’s central theme. The term 'drip' doesn't feature in her lyrics and in the context of the song refers to the dripping of her diamonds. The track features rappers Migos members Takeoff and Quavo. The song is an ode to luxury and excess, finding Cardi boasting about her success and wealth while dismissing any competition.


The song begins with the voice of the producer of the song, Crashtalk, announcing his moniker briefly. It’s followed by Cardi B saying “that boy cash” which suggests her producer is getting paid well. The first verse finds Cardi delivering a sexual fantasy before ending with a triumphant outburst boasting of her recent achievements. As the track progresses, the Migos members take control with their bars about expensive watches and money with takeoff getting the longest verse.


Cardi B delivers her verse with a braggadocious and arrogant flair, showing off her bling and her success. She commands attention and makes it clear that she is the baddest chick in the rap game. The lyrics feature explicit sexual references as is typical of Cardi. In the chorus, there is a repetition of “drip drip” which refers to the bling, typically diamonds, that the characters in the verse are dripping in.
