Although Cardi B couldn’t bring home the awards, she was nominated for Best Hip Hop Artist and Best New Artist at BET Awards 2017.

Well, that wasn’t a big deal for the WAP singer, as she pleasantly performed on the same stage at the BET Awards afterparty.  Furthermore, Cardi B also appeared on the front cover of The Fader’s Summer Music issued in July or August of 2017.

In collaboration with Atlantic Records, Cardi B released her commercial debut single named, Bodal Yellow on June 16, 2017, and for the promotion, she delivered a stunning performance at Jimmy Kimmel Live and The Wendy Williams Show.

The song went straight to the top of the September 2017 Billboard Hot 100, making her emerge as the first female rapper to reach number 1 with a single after Lauryn Hill’s Doo Wop, back in 1998. The Bodak Yellow was then certified platinum by the RIAA.
