Then she raps, “If there ain’t no ring on my finger, you ain’t going on my ‘gram!” At one point, we see her almost like Medusa, except instead of her hair made of snakes, it’s made of talking Barbie dolls.
“I wanted to do something more gangsta, more cocky,” she said. Belcalis Almanzar said she wanted this tune to be more “hood” because “WAP” in her opinion was “too sexy.” The premiere of the video last night at exactly midnight was preceded by a YouTube livestream where Ms. RELATED: Cardi B shuts down racist response to her Birkin bags Cardi B's rap prowess cannot be overstated. “Said my face bomb ass tight / Racks stack up Shaq height / Jewelry on me flash light / I been lit since last night,” she raps so quickly, it might take you a minute to actually pick up what she’s saying. At one point we see her holding a vibrator, and then she plays tonsil hockey with her dancers. Just like her last music video from seven months ago, “WAP,” that smashed all records in 2020, we again see Cardi as the sexually dominant one in the relationship with loads of things to say about the dirty deed.
#UP CARDI B SERIES#
Then the video launches into a series of ornate costumes and dance numbers as Cardi literally becomes some of the finer things in life, like a hood ornament on a Rolls Royce and the pearl at the centre of the oyster. Cardi is looking smoking in this video that starts off in a cemetery with an epitaph gracing a tombstone, “RIP 2020.” Now THIS, friends, is what you wear to a funeral for a year like that one. "If it's up then it's stuck," she repeats - confirming yet again that anyone who's got beef with her got beef forever.Man, we’re already imagining the TikTok dances that will come from this work of music video mastery! Cardi B just dropped the video for her new single, “UP,” and if you’re thinking it might have something to do with a beloved Disney movie, we’re gonna keep you in our thoughts and prayers. "Big bag bussin' out the Bentley Bentayga/ Man, Balenciaga Bardi back and all these bitches f*cked," she raps in dizzying speed on the track's pre-chorus, before rotating to the song's simple hook. The track is a revved-up, no-holds-barred anthem about being a bad bitch in a world of haters, and Cardi B does nothing but deliver some of her best tongue-twisting, alliterative bars. At one point, as Cardi B spits out the call-and-response bar: "Broke boys don't deserve no p*ssy," a legion of black and brown barbie heads that have somehow been stitched into her wig shout back in chorus: "I know that's right!" She begins her story - "Once upon a time, a bitch said I was ugly." - and the video turns up ten-fold after that (as do the lyrics). The Bronx native has now outdone herself with her latest song and video, "Up," which opulently features the "I Like It" rapper in an array of increasingly outrageous outfit and set changes.ĭirected by Tanu Miano who's worked with both Katy Perry and Rosalía, "Up" opens on a shot of Cardi with her foot planted on the chest of a cement figure, laying on the tombstone of "2020." She's in funeral wear but Cardi B style, which means her black corset and headpiece are dripping in crystals, with her long, black braid running all the way down her back. In the visual for her massive summer hit "WAP," she seemed to reach a creative peak as she and Megan Thee Stallion ran loose in a celebrity funhouse complete with a tiger room - and those Willy Wonka-colored latex suits that birthed the video's corresponding TikTok challenge. It should be common knowledge by now that Cardi B's music videos are always wild, elaborate affairs.
