While this is a major accomplishment for Cardi B, not everyone is content with Billboard’s decision.  While rocking a robe and a head wrap, Cardi addressed all the haters after being named ‘Billboard’s Woman of the Year.’  Cardi says:

 

“Morning y’all, it’s your girl Cardi B, and yes, I am Woman of the Year.  And for you crybabies like, ‘But she only got one song!’ Yeah, I got that song, b—h. You know, the one that sold the most? The one that streamed the most? The one that had Republicans crying on Fox News about it. The one that have a song that’s about to be six times platinum in three months. The one that had your grandma popping her p—y on TikTok. Yeah b—h, that one.  And on top of that, boy, for over a year, you know what I’m saying, I’ve been influencing, using my platform for y’all to vote.  Not just when Joe Biden was going against Trump. I’ve been informing y’all about y’all’s senators. I’ve been informing y’all about districts. Midterm elections. Using my own money to meet up with these candidates like Bernie [Sanders]. Flying out, tired after shows. Yeah, that’s me, b—h.  Even when y’all’s crying like, ‘But she don’t represent us!’ Yes I do, b—h,” she concluded. “I represent America. I wanted a change, and that’s exactly what the f–k I did. And eat it up. I’m just that

b—h. Eat it up with a spoon so y’all can get a mouthful.”
