Her debut studio album, Invasion of Privacy (2018), debuted at number one on the Billboard 200, broke several streaming records, was certified triple platinum by the RIAA and named by Billboard the top female rap album of the 2010s. Critically acclaimed, it won the Grammy Award for Best Rap Album, making Cardi B the only woman to win the award as a solo artist, as well as the first female rap artist in 15 years to be nominated for Album of the Year. It spawned two number-one singles on the Billboard Hot 100; "Bodak Yellow", which made her the only female rapper to achieve a Diamond-certified song by the RIAA, and the second female rapper to top the chart with a solo output following Lauryn Hill in 1998, and "I Like It", which made her the first female rapper to attain multiple number-one songs on the chart. Her Maroon 5 collaboration "Girls Like You" made her the only female rapper to top the Hot 100 three times. "WAP", the lead single of her second album, made her the only female rap artist to achieve Billboard Hot 100 chart-topping singles in two decades (2010s and 2020s). "Up", the following single, made her the only female rapper to achieve multiple Hot 100 number ones with solo songs, and extended her record as the female rapper with the most Hot 100 number-one singles as her fifth leader.
Recognized by Forbes as one of the most influential female rappers of all time, Cardi B is known for her aggressive flow and candid lyrics, which have received widespread media coverage. She is the highest-certified female rapper of all time on the RIAA's Top Artists (Digital Singles) ranking, also appearing among the ten highest-certified female artists. She is the female rapper with the most billion-streamers on Spotify, and became the first artist to top the inaugural Billboard Global 200. Her accolades include a Grammy Award, eight Billboard Music Awards, five Guinness World Records, five American Music Awards, eleven BET Hip Hop Awards and two ASCAP Songwriter of the Year awards. In 2018 Time magazine included her on their annual list of the 100 most influential people in the world, and in 2020, Billboard honored her as Woman of the Year.

and they start catching feelings and like
no matter what I tell them like they just don't stop liking me
Like I be like listen I'm a hoe
I don't cook I don't clean like
trust me you don't want me to be the mother of your kids.
I don't like mother-in-laws and they just be on some sooo

I dont do no sauce niggas (lil' bitch)
Pop a pill, I abort niggas (lil' bitch)
And I don't save them, I export niggas (lil' bitch)
You niggas ass salad tossed niggas (lil' bitch)

Always talking about you run that block, nigga, really, what block?
Always talking about your shooters ha, so who y'all shot?
Always talking about your foreign whips nigga, really what lot?
Always talking about y'all niggas scam, okay, you scam

Always emotional blinging my line go find Nemo and nigga get lost
Cannot talk spicy cause you are not hot

The lyrics to Cardi B's "Sauce Boyz" depict her aversion towards men who catch feelings and become emotionally attached to her even though she has warned them of her promiscuous and non-traditional lifestyle. She expresses her dislike towards men who constantly brag about their wealth, status, and possessions, yet have nothing substantial backing up their claims. She uses the term "sauce" to refer to these men, implying that they are all style and no substance. She makes it clear that she has no interest in maintaining any kind of long-term relationship with such men.
In the first verse, Cardi warns these men that she is not relationship material and that they should not expect her to be the mother of their children or involve any of their family members in their relationship. With a mixture of humor and frustration, she emphasizes that these men "just don't get it."
In the second and third verses, Cardi outlines her criteria for the kind of men she wants to be associated with, emphasizing that they should have a certain level of financial stability and not just talk about their wealth without having any legitimate means of obtaining it. She also mentions her willingness to cut off any man who is not willing to meet her standards.
Overall, the song showcases Cardi's assertiveness and self-confidence, as well as her disdain for men who lack authenticity and integrity in their relationships.

Line by Line Meaning
I hate when I'm using a guy and shit
I hate it when I am just using a guy for pleasure, but they begin to catch feelings and can't stop liking me, even when I express that I am not interested in anything serious.
Like I be like listen I'm a hoe
I try to make it clear that I'm not the type of girl who cooks or cleans, and it's best if they don't see me as somebody who could be the mother of their children, as family gatherings freak me out.
I dont do no sauce niggas (lil' bitch)
I'm not interested in guys who brag about their money or street credibility, as they usually have nothing to show for it, except for a big ego.
Always talking about what you got, so what you got
Guys always talk a big game, but I want them to back it up with real evidence, such as assets or things they've accomplished, rather than just talking the talk.
Boy, you lying using hella filters, this ain't the gram
Don't try to impress me with fake or edited photos on social media, as I'm wise to these tactics and don't take them seriously.
Some of you niggas is really too soft
Guys can be too soft or too sensitive, which is a turn off to me, as I prefer somebody who can handle themselves in a tough environment.
Cannot talk spicy cause you are not hot
Guys may talk a big game, but they lack the skills or abilities to back it up. Therefore, they can't 'spice up' the conversation with real substance.
You bought me a chain, a ring, and a watch but how much it cost
Guys may buy me gifts, but the value is not relevant to me, as it's transparency and authenticity that I'm looking for in a relationship.
And I don't save them I export niggas
I don't bother with guys who have nothing to offer, as they don't have anything that is worthwhile for me to hold onto. Therefore, I 'export' them out of my life.
You niggas ass salad tossed niggas (lil' bitch)
Guys who are too soft or too sensitive get 'tossed' out of my life because they can't handle my 'spiciness.'
