For those who thought that Cardi B‘s rise to fame would only last 15 minutes, they’ve been eating her dust the past few years–and now they will have a new plate to dine on.
The rapper’s debut single ‘Bodak Yellow‘ which dominated the charts, radio, the clubs, and was an international smash when it was released in 2018, has now officially made history once again.
The song has become the first female rap song in history to be certified diamond by the RIAA with sales of over 10million–and becomes the 45th song overall in history to achieve this status.
That’s not all! Her recent single ‘WAP‘ ft. Megan Thee Stallion has now been certified 5x platinum.
