But that still has a pop chorus. It may not be manufactured like fancy but the song has a pop chorus believe it or not. 

Um, where? There is nothing pop at all about that trap house flow chorus, wyd. 

[World Eater]

Congrats Cardi

I'm surprised at Taylor's drop tho. Maybe the iTunes discount wasn't about the number one spot at all, but trying to break a nosedive? Everybody assumed it was about Cardi, but seeing that she didn't just drop one spot it seems bigger than just trying to maintain #1.  

Well, would it have gone to #4 or #5 without the last few hours of Thursdays discount????

I don't think Cardi will be an album artist, but no one is checking for a Nicki Minaj album...

I wouldn't be so sure about the latter part. tbh but i hope this is a sign of strong interest for Cardi. I just hope she can serve at least two hits after this one.

What @Ash12345 said isn't shady at all though; this is the first proper rap song -- no sung verses/hook -- performed by a female to ever hit #1. All the other female rappers either featured singers or sang parts of the songs themselves. 

Honestly I don't think a chorus with singing makes a rap song improper. Lauryn was the singer on her song and she served barz, too.

 

I just don't think it's cool to downplay a legend even though I like cardi too.

Yeah and it's funny because I'm seeing people that typically shade urban music in general with thinly veiled "meme music" remarks suddenly dick riding Cardi just to passive-aggressively shade Nicki. It's lame af, but for whatever reason some people on this site literally live for **** like that. 

apparently this never happens with beyonce vs rihanna a male artist vs a female artist katy vs taylor/gaga

 

it's funny that people have no problem participating in it or not calling it out unless it's against someone they like.

 

this is ATRL...people are shady...I'm actually surprised more gaga stans aren't in here shading Nicki about cardi's accomplishment but let's not pretend that this is an exclusive approach people are using as of today.

 

[KingJay]

Congrats Cardi!  

[FutureHive]

this will probably be Cardi's last huge song

she needs the #1 more than Post Malone

[onething]

Wow Portugal, The Man have scored their first top 10 single on BB. That's fantastic. 

 

I really love them, mainly for their name. It's a nice tribute to my country and to all the Portuguese people out there.

Maybe now that Cardi hit number one she can let Nicki hop onto her next single so she can go number one with her too? I’m sure Cardi would be all about female rap empowerment and would lend her shine to help those who haven’t yet reached the number one spot, no matter how hard they try year after year. 

This was so weak LMAO 

Get off the stage ?

[RideOfYourLife]

proud of cardi she really doing her thing

So many salty Barbz in here. Can't yall be happy for someone else's success? Nicki's time has come and gone. Let her bow out in peace.

 

There's only ONHs throwing shade to Nicki left and right though? 

The Barbz are keeping it classy. 

 

Congrats Cardi, I like her song a lot.

 

 

Rooting for Post Malone next week.

[alestevens]

Anyways, Nicki also has a song in the Top 10. This is an important week for female rap in general, not just for Cardi!

Not it doesn't.

Yes it does.

 

This is clearly a chorus that is catchy as it's repeated 3 times in the song. Fancy is just more manufactured. 

 

[Chorus]
Said, "Lil bitch, you can't **** with me if you wanted to"
These expensive, these is red bottoms, these is bloody shoes
Hit the store, I can get 'em both, I don't wanna choose
And I'm quick, cut a ***** off, so don't get comfortable, look
I don't dance now, I make money moves
Say I don't gotta dance, I make money move
If I see you and I don't speak, that means I don't **** with you
I'm a boss, you a worker, bitch, I make bloody moves
