Cardi B hasn’t released any additional studio albums, but that doesn’t mean she hasn’t been on our radar. In her brief career, the New York native has found amazing success with a slew of chart-topping songs and collaborations with industry heavyweights such as “WAP” starring Megan Thee Stallion, “Please Me” featuring Bruno Mars, and “Wild Side” featuring Normani.
The “Up” rapper has also stayed true to her origins with collaborations like “Taki Taki,” a song by DJ Snake that includes Cardi, Selena Gomez, and Ozuna.
