Artistry

Influences

In Billboard's "You Should Know" series, Cardi B said the first albums she ever purchased were by American entertainers Missy Elliott and Tweet, respectively.[12] She has credited Puerto Rican rapper Ivy Queen[187] and Jamaican dancehall artist Spice[188] as influences, as well as Beyoncé,[189] Lady Gaga,[190] Lil' Kim,[191] Madonna,[18] and Selena.[192] She has mentioned Chicago drill music as an important influence.[193] When asked about the initial direction for her music, Cardi B said in an interview,

"When I first started rapping [...] I liked certain songs from Khia and Trina, and they [were] fighting songs. I haven't heard fighting songs for a very long time," crediting the two female rappers for her aggressive rap style. She continued, saying "a lot of girls they cannot afford red bottoms, a lot of girls they cannot afford foreign cars [...] but I know that every girl has beef with a girl [...] I know that every bitch don't like some bitch, and it's like 'that's what I wanna rap about.'"[194][195]

She also credits growing up in the South Bronx and real life experiences as influences for her songwriting; "I wouldn't be able to rap about the things that I rap about now [if I hadn't grown up there]."[18]

Musical style

Her first studio album, Invasion of Privacy, is primarily a hip hop record, which comprises elements of trap, Latin music, and R&B.[92][196] Consequence of Sound described her flow as "acrobatic and nimble."[197] AllMusic editor David Jeffries called Cardi B "a raw and aggressive rapper".[6] Stereogum called her voice "a full-bodied New Yawk nasal bleat, the sort of thing that you've heard if someone has ever told you that you stupid for taking too long swiping your MetroCard." They continued to call her voice "an unabashedly loud and sexual fuck-you Tp New York honk—that translates perfectly to rap."[198] In a 2022 Complex article about her, the editor wrote "unapologetic does not begin to describe the totally unfiltered and sheer Cardi B-ness of Cardi B's personality. She's a hood chick who's not afraid to be hood no matter the setting. Cardi B is Cardi B 24/7, 365, this is why she resonates with people, and that same energy comes out in her music."[199] Her flow has been described as aggressive.[200][201] In 2022, NME described her lyrics as "sexually không lấy phí" performed with "rapid" flow.[126] She possesses a Tp New York-Dominican accent.[202]

Cardi B has defended her musical content featuring sexually-charged lyrics—like most contemporary female rappers; she stated that the content "seems like that's what people want to hear", since she faced negative reactions after releasing her more emotional song, "Be Careful".[203][204] She has declared, "[Drill music] is the type of artist I always wanted to be: I like to rap about the streets, and I like to rap about my pussy. I don't give a fuck about it."[193] She has stated that writing and performing songs about her personal life and relationships initially caused her a "weird and uncomfortable" feeling and shyness.[193]

Cardi has a noted affinity for Christian Louboutin heels, a running theme in her song "Bodak Yellow".[68] She has also mentioned her affinity for cheap, fast fashion brands stating "I don't care if it cost $20 or $15. If it looks good on me, it looks good on me".[233] During an interview in early 2022, Cardi B spoke on being rejected by some fashion designers.[234] Cardi wore vintage Thierry Mugler to the 2022 Grammy Awards, with an i-D article stating that the fashion house's "resurgence onto the fashion scene can almost single-handedly be attributed" to the Swarovski crystal-embroidered crinoline sheath gown she wore the ceremony. Mugler's collaboration with Cardi B marked the second time in 25 years that the Paris house opened its archives to dress a celebrity, the first being Beyoncé for her 2009 concert tour.[235] W magazine credited the "WAP" music video for popularizing the Mugler bodysuit in the mainstream.[236] Cardi has acknowledged Mugler as one of the first designers to "take a major chance on [her]" for their fashion collaborations.[237]

Vogue, The Telegraph, Time, and Vibe have referred to her as a fashion icon.[238][239][240][241] An article from Vogue noted she "is famous for her statement getups—whether she's rocking archival Mugler on the red carpet, or dripping in Chanel while sitting courtside a basketball trò chơi."[242] Her over-the-top manicures, designed by nail artist Jenny Bui and studded with Swarovski crystals, has become a part of her signature look.[243] Editor Christian Allaire from the magazine in 2022 commented that her signature "bold" ensembles "create a spectacle" during fashion weeks.[244]

In 2022, the Council of Fashion Designers of America included her on their list of "28 Black Fashion Forces".[247] Vogue editor-in-chief Anna Wintour commended her fashion sense, declaring that she "completely rethought [her] opinion of Cardi B's style" after the 2022 Met Gala, where the rapper wore a Thom Browne-designed burgundy gown that extends outward in concentric circles for about ten feet and was inspired by the female form.[248][249]

Cardi B became the face of Balenciaga's ad chiến dịch for the winter 2022 season. The chiến dịch includes billboards in several international locations, such as the Louvre museum.

In 2022, Cardi B became the first female rapper to be awarded by the FN Achievement Awards when she won the Style Influencer of the Year award, which was presented to her by Christian Louboutin. In a press release for the awards show, she was called an "influence just about everything in pop culture—from music, fashion and style to social truyền thông, politics and even public service".[251] In 2022, Rolling Stone ranked her as the second most-stylish woman in music, behind Lady Gaga,[252] and GQ considered her "one of fashion's preeminent risk-takers."[253]

Impact

Cardi B has been referred to as the "Reigning Queen of Hip Hop" by multiple publications, including Billboard, The Hollywood Reporter, Entertainment Weekly, Omaha World-Herald, Black Enterprise, Newsweek, and The A.V. Club,[144][254] and as the "Queen of Rap" by NME, Essence, Harper's Bazaar Malaysia, The Jakarta Post, Uproxx, iHeartRadio, Geo TV, Vanity Fair, Joe, Boston Herald, Refinery 29, France 24, and Nigerian truyền thông The Guardian, BBC News, and Daily Trust.[255][126]

Spin staff credited her for opening "the table to a new generation of pop artists remaking American music in their own image and accents," as Cardi B "recognized that POC artists no longer need to pander or soften themselves in order to become household names."[256] Billboard editors stated that with "Bodak Yellow"'s commercial success, "she left an indelible mark on the summer of 2022, not only because she rewrote history, but she gave hope to the have nots...".[257] Several publications have credited "I Like It", the first Latin trap song to reach number one on the Hot 100, for introducing the "musical movement" to a mainstream, massive audience.[258][259] Billboard's Carl Lamarre considered "WAP"'s achievements "a clever Trojan horse for the myriad ways Cardi influences the culture with every move she makes."[193]

The Wall Street Journal's Neil Shah stated in 2022 that her breakthrough and success influenced "today's female-rap renaissance," while Genius staff credited her for "helping jumpstart a new wave of female hip-hop signings and promotion labels,"[158][260] and NPR Music commented that the "renaissance" of the dynamism of women in rap grew "in enthusiasm and breadth" since Cardi's "first historic run" in 2022.[261] Similarly, Clover Hope's book The Motherlode (2022) stated that Invasion of Privacy "jump-started a new era for women rappers in which success felt much more tangible" as Cardi B "multiplied the wealth of talent and resurrected the idea that numerous women who controlled their own stories could dominate rap once."[262] The New Yorker has credited her for "changing a genre that has rarely allowed for more than one female superstar a time."[263] Uproxx noted Cardi B for promoting up-and-coming female rappers; "[she is] choosing to use her position the height of stardom to open doors for other women to flourish in hip-hop a greater level than any since the Golden Era and 'Ladies First'," considering it "something of a departure from tradition; for the decade previous to Cardi's precipitous come-up, it seemed hip-hop had an unspoken, Highlander-esque rule in place regarding women."[264] Variety deemed her a "hip-hop icon",[265] and The Independent called her "the people's pop culture icon", writing that she "has become one of the most recognisable cultural figures of the past 10 years".[266]

NPR defined "Cardi B effect" as "a branding power rooted in specific authenticity, created and permeated by rapper Cardi B" and noticed that with her breakthrough, "brands finally started to become hip to [her] effect, noticing the cultural markers outside of the rap world that were proving it wasn't limited to clubs, concerts and radio."[267] Business magazine Inc. stated that her success "shows how social truyền thông changed everything we knew about traditional marketing and truyền thông", which no longer relies on a "well-thought marketing scheme or millions of dollars in advertising."[268] In 2022, a life-sized sculpture of her was on display the Brooklyn Museum, as part of Spotify's RapCaviar "Pantheon".[269] Bloomberg reported that her data bill helped to boost Ghana's GDP growth in 2022, after it was part of a concert tour.[270] She inspired the creation of the sitcom Partners in Rhyme, executively produced by MC Lyte about a young woman in high school who "aspires to be the next Cardi B."[271] P-Valley creator and executive producer Katori Hall cited her an inspiration for the TV series, and credited her for "helping prepare the public" for its storyline.[272][273] Several artists have cited Cardi B's work as an inspiration, including Rosalía,[274] Olivia Rodrigo,[275] Jazmine Sullivan,[276] Selena Gomez,[277] Blackpink,[278] Spice,[188] Greta Gerwig,[279] Nathy Peluso,[280] Rubi Rose,[281] María Becerra,[282] and Abigail Asante.[283] Cardi B has been credited for supporting and uniting female rappers in the industry,[284][285][286] with a writer from Uproxx considering her co-sign "the new Drake effect" for women in hip hop.[264] Forbes has recognized her as one of the most influential female rappers of all time.[287]

We are Caribbean people. [...] Some people want to decide if you're black or not, depending on your skin complexion, because they don't understand Caribbean people or our culture. [...] I don't got to tell you that I'm black. I expect you to know about it. When my father taught me about Caribbean countries, he told me that Europeans took over our lands. That's why we all speak different languages. [...] Just like everybody else, we came over here the same way. I hate when people try to take my roots from me. Because we know that there's African roots inside of us.[322]

Tauheed K. Epps (born September 12, 1977),[4][5] known professionally as 2 Chainz, is an American rapper. Born and raised in College Park, Georgia, he initially gained recognition as one-half of the Southern hip hop duo Playaz Circle, alongside his longtime friend and fellow rapper Earl "Dolla Boy" Conyers. The duo was signed to fellow Georgia-based rapper Ludacris' Disturbing tha Peace label, and are best known for their debut single "Duffle Bag Boy" (featuring Lil Wayne).

In February 2012, Epps signed a solo record giảm giá with Def Jam Recordings, an imprint of Universal Music Group. The following August, he released his debut studio album Based on a T.R.U. Story on August 14, 2012, to commercial success despite mixed reviews.[6] The album spawned three successful singles: "No Lie" (featuring Drake), "Birthday Song" (featuring Kanye West), and "I'm Different", all of which charted in the top 50 of the Billboard Hot 100 and were certified Gold or higher by the RIAA, along with the album being certified Gold. His second studio album B.O.A.T.S. II: Me Time was released on September 11, 2013; supported by the lead single "Feds Watching" (featuring Pharrell Williams). Epps began working with TV network Viceland on a show called Most Expensivest, which debuted on November 15, 2022, and aired for three seasons.

Early life

2 Chainz was born Tauheed Epps in College Park, Georgia.[7] He attended North Clayton High School, where he played basketball and graduated second in his class.[8] While in high school, he dealt marijuana and was arrested for felony cocaine possession when he was 15 years old.[8]

College basketball career

He later attended Alabama State University on a scholarship, and played on its basketball team from 1995 to 1997.[9]

When asked by Rolling Stone about longstanding rumors that he had graduated from Alabama State with a 4.0 GPA, which had been widely reported on many sources including Wikipedia, 2 Chainz said: "Don't believe anything on Wack-ipedia. There's a lot of false stuff on there, to the point that every time I try to fix one thing, something else comes out."[10] In fact, he transferred to Virginia State University due to circumstances he was reluctant to speak about. "I got into some trouble, went somewhere else, and came back. But I graduated, and that's that. That was then," he said.[8]

Musical career

1997–2010: Playaz Circle and Disturbing tha Peace

Epps formed the hip hop duo Playaz Circle (the word "Playaz" being a bacronym for "Preparing Legal Assets for Years from A to Z")[12] in College Park, Georgia in 1997, with his high school friend Earl Conyers (known as Dolla Boy), while Epps adopted "Tity Boi" as his moniker.[13] Following the release of an independent album titled United We Stand, United We Fall (2002),[12] the duo was introduced to fellow Atlanta rapper Ludacris when he moved into their College Park apartment complex while he was acting as a DJ.[13] After taking interest in Playaz Circle, Ludacris began to record several songs with the group, playing some of them on his radio station.[12]

Ludacris soon became one of the highest-selling rappers in the Southern United States.[13] After hearing of their situation, Ludacris requested of Epps that the duo join his newly formed record label Disturbing Tha Peace, a subsidiary of Def Jam Recordings. Epps agreed to sign, although Conyers did not officially join the label until his mother regained her health a year after the initial signing.[13]

The duo's debut album Supply & Demand, was released on October 30, 2007. The lead single and the duo's debut single, "Duffle Bag Boy", became an urban hit single. The song features Lil Wayne, and was performed by the duo the BET Hip Hop Awards. The duo released its second studio album Flight 360: The Takeoff, on September 29, 2009. In January 2010, Playaz Circle filmed a music video for the single "Big Dawg" featuring Lil Wayne and Birdman Studio Space Atlanta. Shortly afterwards, Epps left Disturbing tha Peace, a move he claimed was taken in order to advance his career. Although Ludacris was initially reluctant to allow Epps to leave the label (as he felt Epps could still prove financially successful), he eventually accepted the decision.[14]

2011–12: Name change and Based on a T.R.U. Story

Epp's has sometimes faced criticism of sexism for his original pseudonym "Tity Boi", although he has repeatedly denied such accusations.[15] In early 2011, he decided to change his stage name to "2 Chainz," as he perceived it to be more "family friendly."[16] Following the name change, Epps released a mixtape titled T.R.U.

But we was talking and I think I was jeopardizing my brand sometimes by doing the homeboy special. So I think he felt like we should just put that out there that we ain't doing no more of that."[21] On May 30, 2012, Ciara revealed 2 Chainz was featured on "Sweat," the intended first single from her fifth studio album, One Woman Army.[22]

The mixtape originally featured Drake and YFN Lucci on it, but Epps chose to move the song "Big Amount ft.

Legal issues

At the age of 15, Epps was convicted of felony cocaine possession.[58] On February 14, 2013, he was arrested in Maryland en route to a concert UMES for marijuana possession. He was then cited and released.[59]

On June 11, 2013, Epps was arrested while on board a departing flight LAX airport for possession of a controlled substance after TSA agents found that his checked bag contained marijuana and promethazine. He was booked and charged with felony narcotics possession. Later that day he posted $10,000 bond and was released. He was due back in court on June 21, 2013.[60] Two days previous, he was reportedly robbed gunpoint outside a medical marijuana dispensary in San Francisco.[61]

Just before midnight on August 21, 2013, Epps' tour bus was pulled over in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, because the passenger side taillights were out. The arresting officer reported that he smelled marijuana and saw smoke through the open door of the bus after he had stopped and pulled over the bus. The driver of the bus shut the door and told officers he was not authorized to allow them on the bus. The officer said the marijuana smell gave him probable cause to search, but the driver refused to open the door. After many attempts to enter, the bus was towed with the men still aboard to the police training center in Oklahoma City. Officers obtained a search warrant and the 10 men, including Epps, got off the bus. Police discovered two semi-automatic pistols and a 12-gauge pump shotgun, along with some prescription painkillers and marijuana residue, on the tour bus according to papers filed Oklahoma County district Court.[62]

Business ventures
