For many artists, the heat is always on to consistently make hit records. The challenge with that can be knowing what elements are needed to make that next single as hot or greater than the last. Thankfully, our favorite hood princess, rapper Cardi B knows just the trick to get back in the No. 1 spot: Queen Bey.
That’s right! The Bodak Yellow rapper has allegedly enlisted the sensational Beyoncé Knowles Carter for her next single. The news stems from an Instagram story posted by Cardi’s engineer Ashby.
It is believed that talk of this collaboration stemmed from the moment Cardi B met up with Jay Z and Beyoncé at the Made In America Festival in Philadelphia, this past September. Cardi hinted in a Breakfast Club interview that the conversation she shared with the Carters that day was extensive, but she chose not to reveal the details.
“I met Beyoncé, y’all! It was real. It wasn’t Photoshopped!”
Now, with the news of the collaboration spreading like wildfire, even more pressure rests on the shoulders of the Bronx rapper to stay consistent and continue creating good music for the culture.
“I’m a little nervous to put the project out but I think it’s gonna do pretty good,” she admits. “It’s a lot of pressure on me. Everybody is waiting to see what I’m gonna have next and it’s like, I hope people love it. But I have confidence. I’m really good.”
The collaboration single, entitled “Wet” will likely be released on Cardi’s debut album; no release date has been revealed at this time.
