IT AIN'T EVEN THE BEST SONG OF POP 2 AND IT'S STILL A MILLION TIMES BETTER THAN BODAK YELLOW AND BODAK YELLOW IS FINE.
Track10 is Best, with Femmebot being close second.
It was better before?
Just seems like shit has gotten away from itself.
People are getting props for being poppy now.
it's kind of amazing how she went from love and hip hop to actually putting out chart topping hits. Her music's not for me, but I respect the hustle.
How long will her run last?
Hahaha perfect.
How long have you been waiting for the perfect time to unleash this gif.
Facts.
You're gonna have to walk me through that logic, homie.
Alright I'm gonna listen to these and give my first impressions from bottom to top.
Bodak Yellow - the beat is a little minimal for my tastes, her verse is in the spotlight and its alright? But the cadence of it feels off to me, it feels dragged out. (I tried it and it actually sounds a hell of a lot better to me at 1.25x) But I can appreciate its slow for the club experience of singing along.
Bartier Cardi - Started off promising but I didn't like the slow parts where the final word of the lyric is repeated. Overall pretty decent but long again for no reason. Why is 21 savage even in this song though
Motorsport - Is this a parody song? Lol. Ironically Cardi's verse is the only thing that sounds like effort went into it
G Eazy - waaaaaaay too repetitive and none of the verses were interesting
Finesse - This was great! Nice peppy beat and I liked seeing a different, lighter side of Cardi. Would actually like to see more Cardi and less Bruno in this one.
Overall I didn't like any of the songs to the point I want to listen to them again and motorsport is garbage and I see why Finesse has the #1. Gave her a chance and I'm just not into Cardi's flavor of hiphop

There are plenty of people who are wildly successful despite having no talent whatsoever. If anything, social media has made it easy for untalented people to have cult followings. Why people are drawn to the Cardi B's and Kardashians and Jake Pauls of the world is beyond me.
Man, as much as I love this forum, music discussions always ends up looking like a music video on YouTube's comment section back in 2010.
Makes me feel less old at least, so there's that. Good for Cardi. Bodak Yellow slaps

not really my thing but many dudes have had great sucess in making hip hop with superficial lyrics about being wealthy/being the shit/sex for over three decades, so only fair women get the chance to as well in bigger numbers I guess
I don't see the Bey. She also sounds a little like Lil' Kim and has some Latina in her (I think).
She's alright. A friend of mine is obsessed with her. Thinks she's better than Nicki. I say no.
Migos in a nutshell. I really don't get the appeal or even how this is considered music...
Have you guys ever seen this girl talk in an interview?
Yaass Queen Bae, lit af, gucci diddy bread crumbs
Is normal
I'm not gonna comment much on any female ascendance in the music industry, being a dude and all.
I will say that her lyrics are simple, fun to follow, and fun to repeat. It's nice to have a new fresh face in Hip-Hop.
It's entirely up to her if she wants to always be known for Bodak or have serious longevity. Marketing, advertising, and features will only get you so far.

This is why I like her stuff. It's this brag rap stuff that dudes have been doing forever, but it's a female instead. It's not watered down or anything, she's out there playing the same game as all the guys, and I can respect that.
Her first line in Motorsport is Flames. "Ride the dick like a BMX......" had me like 0.0
I don't mind some of the tracks she's in (Finesse is great), but the state of 'popular' music can be a tad depressing these days. We need Lauryn Hill to come back and offer hits with real lyrical potency and meaningful content.
While I believe she has a lot of talent, popular music has never, in the history of popular music, been only been about talent. And since the 80s, you don't really need talent at all.
It's chiefly about image.
And Cardi B has a clear, concise, relatable image that doesn't exist right now.
I mean, a strong black female rapper doesn't strike me as an image that is really lacking in quantity, it just so happens to be that she is the most predominant one at this point in time. Considering how popular Nicki Minaj was and still is, not mentioning all the other female MC's out there, I still don't see why she is being held up as the omega.
As for the "ride the dick" like, my girl Babs from P. Diddy's Da Band dropped a similar line almost two decades ago.
as an old and bitter person i feel that charts are completely meaningless now that no one really buys music anymore.
i still have some johnny cash on vinyl.

Come on guys Bodak Yellow is not bad. Cardi B is a great rapper who is gonna make a dope album this year (probably) This Cardi B slander hurts my soul lol
lmfao the salt in this thread
Yeah I'm pretty salty tbh. This is ridiculous.
Maaan....why does chart topping rap always bring out the most hateful people?
I don't even really care for Cardi's music but I ain't this mad over it.

She's not only a strong black female rapper. If she was, Bodak Yellow would have gotten zero airplay and zero push from her label.
Her image consists of the hundreds of hours of content she created on Vine and Instagram and the persona she created on her reality TV show. Those years + decent music that falls in line with her chosen image + her hustle = 5 songs on the charts.
Well yeah, track 2 is better but that song with Carly Rae is pretty tight
Dishonorable mention to the rap verses on the album tho. Scust
I totally got the reference and thought it was funny.
