I don't even really mess with trap like that and I like this song. In fact I just like Cardi, period.
I think the triumph thing is key. Her authenticity, too.
Like, is she the first female rapper to talk shit? no.
But I can't think of another woman in this space doing it with such.. vulnerability. It's like underdog music.
Nicki, Remy, hell even the singers aka Rhi and dare I say Beyonce... they all do their empowerment/shit-talking or whatever. But they do it with this 'Queen' vibe.. like they're super-secure in their respect/positions, throwing minions some crumbs.
But Cardi? It's like she's speaking FROM the perspective of a minion, lol. Or something. There's waaaay more young girls/women that can relate to THAT, then being the untouchable/flawless/billionairess the other women are talking about. SZA flips it too, I think.
So the 'minion(s)' that used to get clowned/exploited/abused are now winning. And bloodthirsty for more. We probably haven't even heard a fraction of Cardi's fuck yous, tbh.
She said 2 mixtapes in 6 months, right? And I think I heard recently she's working on another one LOL. It's so lit.
