Is Cardi B working on a new music video? Rapper teases project with racy photo: 'Work was long today, stay tuned'
Cardi B has something up her sleeve for fans, and if her latest Instagram post is anything to go by, we might be getting a brand-new music video soon. The 'WAP' rapper took to her Insta account on November 10 to share a new photo that she teased was taken during a hard day of work. "Work was long today...." she captioned the pic, adding, "Stay tuned🖤." In the photo, Cardi B sports knee-high high-heel boots, black leather catsuit-type gear with cone-shaped breasts, and standing amid what appears to be a racecourse set up with cones and arches designed in black and white balloons.
There has definitely been a lot of effort put in the set and considering that a musical celeb has tipped that her work "was long today," which we have to "stay tuned" for before she reveals what it was all about, we can presume it's a shoot for a music video. Check out her post by clicking here.
Fans have been quick to share their excitement over Cardi B's teaser. "We tuned sis!! 😍👀," said a fan. "Ready," wrote another fan. One fan was blown away by the pic itself, saying, "😍😍😍😍😍😍😍😍 damn ma" while another described it as "Hot♥️"
If Cardi B does intend to drop a new music video soon, it will follow the official visual for her platinum hit 'WAP' which featured a collaboration with rapper Megan Thee Stallion. Considering the widespread popularity of the 'WAP' music video, which dropped in August and is still making headlines, fans will be in a frenzy if she plans to release another. Additionally, expectations of its success will be high.
Although 'WAP' received strong critical acclaim for its sex-positive message, some conservative commentators criticized its explicit nature. Recently, the song drew harsh criticism from Black Sabbath’s Geezer Butler who said, “Cardi B pisses me off with that ‘WAP’ song. It’s disgusting," according to NME. The track has still garnered commercial success, however. 'WAP' debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100, giving Cardi B her fourth number-one single in the US, extending her record as the female rapper with the most number-one singles in the chart's history, and Stallion her second. It also broke the record for the largest opening streaming week for a song in US history and debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard Digital Song Sales, Streaming Songs, Hot Rap Songs, and Hot R&B/Hip-Hop songs charts.
The official music video also scored big, garnering over 26 million views in its first day, which broke the record for the biggest 24-hour debut for an all-female collaboration on YouTube. It also set a record for the biggest US debut on YouTube, accumulating 55 million views in one week in the region. It currently has over 280 million views on YouTube, all accumulated within a period of three months.
So, we will certainly stay tuned for more music videos by Cardi B. What do you think Cardi B is planning? Share your thoughts in the comments below.
