All I’ve wanted since Cardi B released Invasion of Privacy in April was for an “I Like It” video to drop at the beginning of summer, and mujeres, she DID that. More excitingly, here she is rapping in the same room with my beautiful son Bad Bunny—dressed as usual like a raver from 1998 (BLESS)—and distant cousin we…
J. Lo is sooo rich in the music video for her new single “Dinero,” featuring Cardi B. How rich, you ask? She’s so rich that when she burns a whole rack of ribs on her outdoor charcoal grill, she simply chucks it into the grass. She’s so rich that elsewhere, she roasts a marshmallow over a pile of burning money. She’s…

Cardi recently cancelled a host of summer tour dates, and though her due date is reported to be sometime in July, the belly don’t lie. Though bodies…
On Thursday, Billboard reported that Cardi B’s former manager Klenord Raphael—who goes by “Shaft” and began working with Cardi in 2015—and his companies KRS Group and WorldStar Management are suing the rapper for breach of contract, unjust enrichment, declaratory judgment, and defamation.
