Cardi B is taking over the world – Bodak Yellow has just hit number one on the US charts (overtaking Taylor Swift….) and her social media presence proving as fervent as ever, 2017 is clearly Cardi’s year, we’re all just living in it.

 

Although initially got her start on the reality show Love & Hip Hop, Cardi’s success has been crafted completely on her own terms. She’s in the first woman in hip hop to crack the number one spot since Lauryn Hill in 1998 – that’s nearly 20 years without a solo female hip hop act hitting that top spot.

 

She’s taken to Hypebae to discuss, in her truest and most unfiltered fashion, the road to her success, giving her guide to living your best life. It’s only up from here for Queen Cardi. Bow down.
