In a Billboard cover story published on Wednesday, the Bronx rapper explained why she believes her name belongs in that top tier.
“Because I do my job well…I take my time with my music,” she explained. “It’s just something you gotta ask the fans.”
A major source of her confidence comes from the continued demand for her music. Cardi also highlighted her career longevity as proof of her place in the Big Three. She pointed out that many artists rise quickly but fade, while she has maintained a consistent presence and influence in the industry.
Her dedication to her craft also sets her apart from the rest.
“Ya’ll can downplay my accent…But I really put a lot of thought in my stuff…I don’t like to half-a** nothing,” she reiterated.
By combining artistic focus, a strong work ethic, and the loyalty of her fans, Cardi B reinforced her claim to being one of the elite women in rap.
She left no doubt that her inclusion in the Big Three is not only deserved but earned through consistency and proven talent.
