@prefershe

Hi, I know it's been at least a year since you wrote this comment but you should really do some research before saying things that aren't exactly true. In actuality, Cardi B made quite a few songs before she became popular with "Bodak Yellow", I recall when people were hoping for Cardi to "blow up". Now that she has, people wanna give her hate, and these are probably the same people who wanted her to succeed in the beginning 😆!

@e Hi to you, that's how you know you made it big when people look for ways to downplay your success.

@SageSkylight

She hasn't changed a thing. She improved. Maybe she had no money before and that's why she couldn't dress herself the way she wanted to because of that. But if she acknowledges her past and appreciates her present (which she does) then that must mean she knew herself and her style.

@rain740

@@kirklandau2826 Prophetically, 8 represents resurrection, regeneration and something new. In the Bible, God saved only 8 people when He flooded the earth. Those 8 people, Noah and his family, were the new beginning of the human population. So it’s a spiritual thang lol

@Adriaantje2008

I’m sure it’s fun to be a girl and have a rapper you can relate to, but what she’s spitting isn’t really impressive in terms of rhymes or bars. Imagine if a dude rapped this, no one would care.

@GigaNeptune543

She is such an amazing lyricist. The fact that people can do this amazes me, I would freeze up. She's honestly amazing and her bars are the most fire thing ever. Igloo Aerosol would be rapped under a table by Nicki, and no hate to Lil' Kim but Nicki outclasses her as well. Nicki is honestly the queen of rap, haven't seen any woman who is better than her.

@kensantiago86

she never had Botox, never bleached her skin nor did she get a nose job. It's the makeup she USED to wear when she was "Barbie" she looks like a light caramel now because she wears regular makeup. She spoke on it in an interview she even said "why do people keep thinking i got surgery on my face, it WAS just the makeup". She had her teeth straightened like a NORMAL person would want. It's like getting braces. There's nothing wrong with getting your teeth straightened, STOP trying to make it seem like she was ugly before the fame, because honestly she wasn't.

@mandyjuelz

Ahahahaha! Nicki got bodied on Shether, she knows that the little 12 years old's will listen to her because they are gullible children, but she also know that TRUE HIP HOP FANS have lost all respect for her. Rap was supposed to the thing that she bragged so much about being the best at, it took her waaaaay to long to respond and plus her response was laughable. She's lost respect from a lot of people in the rap community. She needs to take a bow quick before she embarrasses herself even more.

It wasn't a "bashing" she was complimenting her natural beauty. And she was right. Unfortunately, you were right too; the numbers don't lie: glam is what "the streets" want. She did what she needed to do to get rich and now that she's that I wonder how she really feels about it.
