Cardi B makes another appearance in the eighth spot of Billboard’s Hot 100, lending a verse to the track ‘No Limit’ by G-Eazy. A$AP Rocky shows up on the chorus as well.
G-Eazy is the third male rapper in the top ten so far, and the third white guy. I guess I haven’t been paying enough attention to the rap scene, and apparently the days when Eminem was the only legit white rapper are long gone.
Before I knew who Cardi B was, I learned that her surprise hit ‘Bodak Yellow’ (this week’s #7) defied all odds and unseated juggernaut Taylor Swift for the #1 spot on Billboard’s Hot 100.
In doing so, Cardi B became only the second solo female artist to reach the top of the chart with a hip-hop track (the first was Lauryn Hill, with 1998’s ‘Doo Wop (That Thing)’). When the song stayed on top for three straight weeks, it became the longest-running #1 single by a solo female rapper in history.
