There's been a lot of talk about Nicki Minaj and Cardi B, but it's not the discussion that should surround two dope female emcees who are out here winnin' in every which way. As debates about the origins of "MotorSport" swirl on the internet and rivalry between the two is propelled by the public, we thought it a fitting time to remind you of just how badass both of the women are.
While a little rap beef can be entertaining, pitting two black women against each other never is. Nicki and Cardi both have the means and the Ms to brag differently. As both continue to kill it, here's a list of some of their accomplishments.
1. Cardi set the Apple Music record for most streamed album by a female artist in one week.
