Cardi B Earns Third #1 Record With “Girls Like You,” Only Female Rapper To Do So

Being only 25-years-old, new comer Cardi B is blazing trails and setting records.

Cardi first broke a record with “Bodak Yellow” spending more than one week at number one as a solo female rapper track, then, Cardi became the only female rapper with two number records when “I Like It” with J Balvin and Bad Bunny hit number one, and now, she has earned her third with “Girls Like You” with Maroon 5. The first solo female rap record to top the charts was Lauryn Hill’s “Doo Top (That Thing),” and it held its position for two weeks.

Maroon 5’s “Girls Like You” has spent 17 weeks on the charts, and it’s number 1 is brand new. Last week, it was number 2. With the cross-over success Cardi is having, it doesn’t appear she is slowing down. While working on a fashion line with Fashion Nova, to currently performing at Milan’s Fashion Week, Cardi is a hard-working mom, and won’t lt anything stop her from securing her bags.
