What is going on, y'all?
How you feel?
I'm tired.
Morning sickness?
No, no.
Okay.
This one is, I really ain't got that this time around.
I don't know if it's my age or I don't know,
because it's like, I was a girl, please.
You know, we had a,
We got a whole baby shower up here for Cardi.
We got Golden Corral from the Bronx.
A real one, though.
Not just, not just like just catering.
They got me cakes and slushies and a whole big food.
I can't, oh, I can wait till this interview for me.
I was smelling it.
I was like, I could smell some chicken.
And my security guard talking about like, it was some noodles.
That ain't no noodles.
You thought you was tripping.
Yeah, I could smell it.
You ever ate that golden crowd before in the Bronx?
I never ate at that Golden Corral.
Okay.
I went, I forgot what state I went to that I ate Golden Corral.
And you got the baby shower chair?
Yeah, I got the baby shower chair.
Yeah, I got the baby shower show, Eddie.
Bring the very, very shirt down.
Let me ask you a question.
When you look back, why did it take eight years to drop a second out?
And you can't blame being pregnant because you're pregnant now.
No, and that's why we wanted to tell people, like, it was never because I was pregnant
because my mouth is not pregnant.
You know what I'm saying?
I'm just very, like, picky.
everybody always said that I dropped the ball
when I didn't release the album
after whopping up
but to be honest with you
I only had like six songs
and I was trying
but I didn't like nothing
and it's like
it shouldn't be my second album
and then like just a whole bunch of things
that was just happening in my life
and I just felt like I wasn't ready
how many songs you thought you needed
you had joints you had press out at that time
press was hard because invasion of privacy
was only 13
yeah but I
I just feel like invasion of
privacy I just didn't put a lot of like thought in it like I was just like I have to put
an album out I'm about to have a baby but then like the second one I think I overthinked it
but see that's what I'm saying that's a good thing when you was putting out the gangster
bitch mixtapes yeah and invasion of privacy you wasn't thinking about it there was no pressure
like just going there have fun yeah I don't know why I just overthink it even even I just
feel like as you get older too you just overthink too much and it's just like you just got to do it
Do you feel like you're still proving yourself as an artist?
Are you past that?
Oh, absolutely.
Especially, like, now with this whole second album thing,
it's just been like a whole nasty debate for the past two months.
And it's like, kind of have to prove it to them,
but it's like kind of don't have to prove nothing to nobody.
But I'm motivated.
I feel really good.
Okay.
The debate you talk about, which debate?
Because there's always debates.
about you yeah is it that people feel like the album is too late or they don't think that the music
is going to be good like what is the debate exactly it's just so it's just so many different things
that that that that i hear like for example like my number's prediction or like if i don't hit a
certain number like the label's going to drop me or like if i'm a priority in the label and
all of these talks and it's just like what are you talking about like that is that is
That's not true.
And a lot of people think that I'm not going to go on tour.
And it's like, honey, Life Nation gave me a check.
I'm going.
There was a check that it was given and there was a check that I got to go get.
I'm going to get that check.
So.
I saw you post a video we covered it this morning of your body preparation for the tour
and you talk about the stretching and all that.
But what's going to be your mental preparation?
because I heard you say, you're going to be leaving a baby's home.
Yeah, but like it's just, this is like my fourth, this is my fourth rodeo.
This ain't my first, like this is my fourth baby.
Like, you know, I just had a baby last year.
And I do have a lot of videos.
I was working out while I was pregnant, like on my last weeks.
And when I gave birth, like, in four days, I just felt like so, like, like nothing.
So it's like, I, not only am I going to prepare.
myself for the tour like because I just have to prepare myself like physically so I
could just feel good my second baby he too big he broke me my first one I had to
stitch my last one down there the cat oh she ain't had no kids yet so she
yeah I ripped I rip you didn't know that happens no yeah how did you pee
how did you pee huh oh my god Cardi hold my hand it was hard yes I'm so sorry
But that's what I'm saying.
Like it's like now things are just a little different
and I'm more experienced.
Like the third one was so easy.
So I'm expecting this one to be as easy as well
in the name of the Lord.
Like that's why I'm like, I just did last year.
I could do it in this year.
I know a lot of women who look at you
and they say Cardi knows how to balance it all.
She got the kids.
She got the career.
Have there ever been a moment
where you questioned if you could have it all?
I'm going to make it.
I'm going to make it.
if I want something, I'm going to make it happen.
It's just really like the, how bad you want it.
If you really wanted that bad, if you want it bad, you get up and you go get it.
It ain't no complaining, ain't no crying about it.
I'm tired of this.
I'm tired every day.
My feet hurt every single day.
But it's like, okay, if you want this to be successful, you got to get out there.
Like, it's like, you know, crying, you know this.
If I want it, like, it's like, it's like, this is what you chose.
like it is what it is like what about people around you though because you know it's still a business
so they was like oh my god she's pregnant again with this so my label and live nation like they
asked me like it's like hey you know we can move the album to the beginning of the year and you could
like tour in the summertime it's like no i'm going to put out my album in september and we're
going to go on tour on February i got things to do in the summertime this is going to be the schedule and
And I'm promising you guys that I'm not going to let you out down.
And it's like, okay, we trust you.
And I've been showing them that it's like, I'm down and I'm doing it.
And they're very motivated.
And we've been like a team.
Like it's like, yeah, yeah, yeah, we're doing it.
The day starts off rocky and cranky, but then when things are turning good
and we see the numbers and we see the vision, it's like, wow, I'm motivated.
I can't wait to push.
So they always been supported of me, though.
They never been like, it's like, ugh.
They know when I want something, my work ethic, if I really want it,
they know that I'm going to do it.
The only time that I just be not giving in my all is when I'm going to, like, mental distress.
And people, like, don't understand that.
So people would think that it's because of the kids or because I'm just whatever.
No, when I'm in mental distress, I don't want to do nothing.
but I feel very like
ain't nothing really bothering me right now
like I'm good
I'm good have you always been
that in tune with like
your mental of like I need to take a break from work
because it's easier now
because Cardi B is established
she's a superstar but when in the beginning
how did you deal with like
because we've watched you go through things
from all of your career
how did you what's the difference now
I didn't even you know what
I didn't even notice that I was taking
so many long breaks
like I would
tell myself like it's like you know what i need to go on a hiatus for like two months next thing you
know it's like damn i haven't put out a song in eight months and nine months and i wasn't even
realizing it that it was so long and i was because i was overthinking i was overstressing or
sometimes i was really so sad that i couldn't even like open my mouth or think to like record like
i just was so unmotivated that you like telling yourself like it's like i need a break and then it's like
the break turns into so long.
And you just be like, damn, what did I did that whole time?
Trying to get to the next step.
Yeah.
And I didn't even notice or realize
that it was taking that long.
I was just overthinking.
I was just too tired.
I was just too tired of stress.
So that was what was messing me up.
What did you do?
Like, you know, we know fame can be overwhelming.
So what do you do to protect your peace and stay grounded?
Sometimes I got that.
answers and sometimes I don't but I'll tell you one thing I always have
somebody to call I always got my friends my family I always got always got
somebody to call somebody's always there five four six three I could call and
nobody complains nobody complains what's what's stressing you out though like
is there like the industry like you find yourself comparing yourself to
other people it's not really comparing is the
industry, relationships, just so many things.
Like, and then, like, it will affect me for, like,
it won't just affect me for like a day.
Cause some people will, it's real easy for people to be like,
oh, just give yourself 72 hours.
Sometimes it will mess you up for like a week or so or longer.
Especially if it's, if it's heartache.
Like, it's like you, boy, you can't fight that.
You really can't fight that.
So it's like grief.
It's like grief.
So, I don't even know, but I just know that I got somebody there always telling me like,
you go, girl, and I'm here.
I feel really good.
I'm in a good space right now.
I don't feel like I'm sad.
I don't feel like I'm sad.
I don't feel like I need to get this right now, right now.
Did this album feel therapeutic to you?
Because, you know, when I hear songs like, dead right out the gate.
killing these holes
you started with dead
and you ended with killing these holes
so did that feel good
to just get in there
and express that?
Some songs in the album
it was not
good songs to do
and then like some songs
like
that it is me talking about
like on some
some cocky-ish
like I was really angry
because I feel like
a lot of these girls
were trying me
and it's like
I don't like
feeling try because it's like
I feel like
I have beef with so many girls
growing up that is really like that
and it's like I know you bitches
are not really like that but you feel like
that because right now
I'm going through this hate thing
on social media so you think you can
take advantage and everybody's going to take
your side but I'm going to let
you know like it's like
me
you you you're not
nowhere near me
when it comes to artistry
when it comes to nothing
when it comes to the street
like girl I'll
I'll crush you like you're a little
pups to me
it's not even about
but no
it's not even about being pussy
or tough this and that
because a lot of these girls
they don't care if you pussy or not
they know they're never going to see you
and they're not really fighters
but they're like antagonizers
and it's like
they get off that
and it's just like
you gotta know when to come at somebody
I'm gonna let you keep trying me thinking when you try me
when you are at a certain position
and then that's when I'm gonna play my position
and I'm gonna remind you right there
because there's sometimes a girl will come out
and everybody love her
and everybody's cheering for her
and everybody's ruling for her
and then they will try you at that moment
but if you say something back
you will look like you're hating
and I'm not hating I just peeped
you trying me but I'm going to stay silent because one thing about it all the all
artists me every artist you're going to experience a different tie it happened to
all of us no matter what genre you in like it's going to happen and when that
happened I'm gonna remind you how you tried me for real and I'm gonna remind you
like it's like you see why I have lasted so long because you think you're so
bright you think you're bright but you're not that smart I might I might
talk away i might do this and that but it's like i'm very i'm smart i'm very i'm very right i know how
to play and now it's time for me to get you because you was you was trying me at a bad time
we know you're trying me about we've heard about we've heard pretty pretty and petty
we know exactly what you're talking about i said on the song pretty and petty it's fuck you come
out the gate out the gate straight at be yeah all right so you said in the song you you
waited you told her you were going to do it on your terms when you were ready you do the song you drop
it at this point though like I mean so that reignites everything because I remember y'all
were going back and forth your whole thing was you felt like you just doing this because you want
my platform you want attention I'm gonna give it to you and then I'm done with it this reignites
it all like why even address her again on the album because because you mentioned my kids trying
to be cute there's there's gonna be times that like people throw shots at you or like there's
gonna be times like you know like when she did her little this and it was trash like it's like
it could have been trash people dragged you and I could leave it at that
But it's like everything on social media is going to be seen.
So when my kids grow up one day and they see that you mentioned them
and then they're going to ask me, like, so what you said, what you did,
I'm not going to tell my kids like, you know,
I just felt like she took the high road because she lost
because people wasn't on her side.
Now, I'm not saying that to my kids.
I'm like, you see how I violated.
And she, it's more.
You know what it is?
I feel like last year, every artist was like beefing.
Girl.
Like every artist was beefing.
and I think she was going to get a moment out of that
because she thought that I was copying her
and I had a conversation with her first
we was cursing each other out
then I had a real conversation with her
and I was like listen
I'm not copying you
I don't even look at you like you're not a person
that I look at or I'm inspired by
and the conversation ended
then she kept going because of a music video
and it's like oh girl you definitely not on the moonboard
I whatever more or less
then this bitch right
it'd be a lot of funny shit
behind the scenes
it'd really be a lot of funny shit behind the scenes
this producer that was
working with like my ex
he was telling
he was going around
saying that I was messing with a guy
and there was allegedly a sex tape
or something right? Yes and I was like
what me? Hell no
hell no but
it was a lie and it was
ridiculous and a bitch can say
no damn to farm because I got
messages when I first started talking to him and I was like I have to get to the bottom of
who's saying that she was trying to plant a seed that I was cheating on this guy with a blood
nigger but you think that I'm I'm you're not from the hood so to you because I'm blood you
think that I'm like oh I'm pressed to mess with a blood that's nothing to me that's like
being around Dominicans or something like that's like that don't mean nothing to me everybody's
macball everybody this everybody and then and then this is New York one thing
think about a New York person or anybody they're going to talk you was really trying to even
mess things up in my home and it's like damn you hate it on me so much you hate it on me so much
and I kept saying like it's like prove it prove it show me a text show me when I flirt it
because when I'm loyal I'm very loyal like I don't text I don't flirt I don't even look at people in
the eye because I don't even want you to think that did I even like you and you was doing
and all that shit and it's like I got you and it's like and I know it was confirmed that it was
heard that was going around with that rumor because when she did her this she kept saying like
oh why say how you how you like a cheater some shit like that I forgot what she was saying but it's
like so say say who I was saying oh you just made that up you just made that up you just made that up
you was being messy and there's a I bitch
now I got a wet belt for you
and you ain't even gonna know when it's coming
have you ever got hit with a wet belt
not a wet one
my daddy beat me with an incision cord
and made me take a bath so it's kind of the same thing
no it's when you
it's when you're in the shower
and your mom find out something
and then she just whipped your ass and your body's wet
yeah I'm gonna hit you with a wet belt
and I told and then it's like you
and then you thought it was cute to put my kid's name
I'm gonna get you
And you did it the right way though
You put it out
Put it on your album
You know
She should be thinking blossom
Because I did that song last year
But I was so nasally
Because I was so congested
You need to thank her
You know when you got sick
When you're pregnant
You can't recover for like three weeks
Throw be messed up
Nose be stuffy
Fee be fat
When the internet be coming for you
Cardi
Whether it's the fans
or haters or blogs does it make you like second guess sharing your truth or does it make you
feel like you know what I'm gonna be I'm gonna be more unfiltered I'm gonna talk more
sometimes yes and sometimes no like sometimes I just can help myself I'm gonna say what I want
to say but sometimes I be like I got I just got to reserve myself because I don't want people
to be like damn you just you just always always always on that you just always always on
that so sometimes I be like I whatever and then sometimes I be like you you know what I like bitch
Fuck you.
Why are you on my dig?
Like, stop.
Stop.
Like, you're taking advantage now.
Are you playing with me?
And sometimes people will be like,
oh, don't give them clow on us.
And now I'm going to give you the clout today.
Fuck you.
I need to get this nut of my fucking chest.
I got a dick on my chest.
Damn.
That's what Diddy said.
Listen, then that's your question.
Like, you say,
what's the biggest thing motherhood has taught you about yourself?
That, like, the fame and money couldn't.
motherhood is hard no matter how much money you have no matter how much how much you plan
motherhood is hard it also makes me it almost makes me like not want to like lose anything
I don't like I don't want to lose like I don't want to be a quitter like I don't ever want my
kids to be like oh so why you end did this I was like because people is being so harsh on me
and it's like it's giving them an example to be to like be like all right so if people are being
mean to you you automatically quit like you automatically finish I don't want to do this no more
like no and I don't know something about it about motherhood that it's just like it's just so beautiful
I love them kids so bad and I feel like that's what you and that's the right thing to do
that's what you was devoted to the last age year even more
I didn't think about, if you were supposed to shoot that movie with Paramount,
and you was like, no, I'm not even going to do that right now.
But I'm not, that is something, too, that is like, I don't really like to do.
I always tell people, like, it's like, I don't like sets.
I don't like waking up at a certain time.
I don't, I don't like having, like, a set schedule.
It's just, this is why I never finished college.
Like, it's just, certain things are just not for you.
certain responsibilities are not for you
like I have to do things my way
my time
I don't know how people do it
and then it's like I heard
I always heard that it's like
if you start off and you do like a movie
and you do great
then the other movie that you make
that's when you get the big coins
I don't got time to be like
I'm getting this
well this shit still come correct
because you Cardi B though right
no it's not like that
not in the movie world so you start fresh
you start fresh you start fresh
And it's like, I'm doing all.
This is hard work.
Getting up and leaving at a certain time,
it's hard work for me.
But that's your gift.
Like even before music, we always,
we saw you on Instagram.
He was like, your, Cardi going to be in TV shows.
Cardi going to be in movies.
So that's not like a desire of yours?
I think that people just, this is just my natural self.
Like, I'm just being my natural self.
For example, somebody, I'm funny, right?
So people be like, you should be a comedian.
It's like, that's not my, that's not what I like to do.
Like, because if I stand with a mic, I can't do a joke.
Like, yeah, I'm just talking.
Like, in my fault, that when I say funny, but I can't think, like, the ticket
from the road.
Yeah, so as soon as you try to be funny, they're going to be like, nah.
Yeah, like, when I try to be funny, it's not.
And then it's that I don't know how to really act.
Like, I don't know how to act.
Like, when I was taking act classes.
It wasn't good.
It was just like.
Like, it was just like, like, the, like the teacher, like, there was like, think about a time when somebody died and this and that the most thing happened to you.
And it's like, nope, I still can cry.
It's not going to happen.
I have to go through some shit so I could cry.
It's just, it's not my thing.
It's really not my thing.
So what's the last thing that made you cry?
I mean, I could, I could.
It's not that I don't cry.
I just don't know how to cry on cue or like,
or if I have to do a scene where I'm going to cry, I'm going to laugh.
Automatically, like, I can't help myself.
Like, I'm just naturally dramatic, but I don't know how to do drama, I guess.
It's not my thing.
But you were making this album, which one of these songs, like, were,
what was the hardest emotionally for you to make and rehear and be in the studio doing?
Man, are you word?
and because I was going through it at that time
it was not like it was like oh I was talking about
something that happened in 2018 or whatever
it was happening at that time and I was doing it at that time
and the hook was just so beautiful
that it was supposed to be like a female singing the hook
but nobody was singing it with with that emotion
that Dougie did it and I'm like I don't care if it doesn't make sense
I'm keeping Dougie
And so in getting into those emotions and the things that you were experiencing while making an album, did that put you in a place where, because from what I've been seeing anyway, you tell me if I'm wrong, the way that you started talking about, the divorce and offset and all the things and the way he started, now you guys, it seems like it's a lot more peaceful on both ends and it's not. No, it's not peaceful at all. No? No, it's not peaceful at all. I don't even talk about it because it's like, it's not peaceful at all. I don't even talk about it because it's like, it's not peaceful at all. It's like, it's not peaceful.
like court thing but it's like it is not peaceful at all it is not it is not
peaceful I don't even want to like make it into it's not peaceful just no when you
heard his song move on offsets move on what you think I laugh whatever you let the
world think what they want to think people see it people see what's up I'm by
nobody they can't prove that about them
Did it hurt your feelings when he said you couldn't cook?
No, because you know that.
But now you got all these bitches that cook for you,
why are you still bothering me?
And you used to be on TikTok.
You never said that you could like you were a chef boy or did you be on TikTok
making your, you know, cooking what you cook and doing your things sometimes?
If somebody asked me or if somebody told me like,
Like, it's like, I want you to cook for me.
This is what I require and stuff like that.
I'll do it.
I will do it.
But that was never like a requirement.
So it's like now you act, now you acting like that was an issue.
Now you got these bitches that they cook.
Why can you sign the papers and these bitch is cooking?
After everything, do you think loving marriage is still worth it?
I think it's worth it.
Were you getting married again?
Mm-hmm.
Really?
Mm-hmm.
Mm-hmm.
I will get married again, but not as quick as I got married the last time.
But it's a lot.
It's really a lot.
It's actually disgusting.
Do you find any peace in independence?
Like when you just alone, like you're not in a relationship or nothing?
Or do you have to have being in a relationship with a mother?
When I was like completely single, like when I just was.
completely single as I could see I was outside with my friends I just had my baby and I just
had to get out of that funk and it's like sometimes they feel good and then sometimes like you'll be
in the club like I just told that to somebody like you'll be in the club and it's 3 30 and you're
drunk and you're realizing that it's like damn I'm going home I'm lit and I literally fuck not even
having somebody to fuck or something because sex is just sex you don't have no
to talk to and you really feel alone and that is a feeling that just comes out of nowhere like
if you hear Adele my little love like at the end she's really saying it like it's like I'm
cool with with being alone I like to be alone I like to watch movies and be alone but today I just
feel so I feel so lonely and I feel like am I going to be like lonely forever you get those feelings
when you're like alone but don't let that get too desperate neither you know what I'm
saying don't let start dating somebody and give them the box and then it's like you gave a box
somebody that it's gonna go to you ghost you and stuff like that like or just like it's like oh
I gave I gave some pussy to the wrong nigga you can't even do that no more because you
carty be all these things want to tell on you I definitely can't do that and and it's not even
that I definitely can do that like is that I don't really
like people.
I'm really a person that is like,
I don't really like guys like that.
Like, not guys, like I'm some gay bitch
or some shit, but it's like...
You say on the album, you'd be gay for the right girl, though?
I'll do something with a girl, but I can never be...
I'm not a relationship with a girl type of girl.
Gotcha.
It's just not my thing.
I'm sorry, girl.
Like, I need somebody to protect me.
You can do shit for me, girl.
What was dating, Carling?
She sounded like,
She's not like named Ash.
I'm sorry, girl.
I'm sorry, girl.
He is a, oh, what was I'm like?
Oh, what was dating, like when you were dating?
Because we didn't really, I mean, yeah, we didn't really get to see it much.
It was literally like we just heard about Stefan Diggs and now it's like, you were locked in.
What was Cardi B like in dating?
Like, were you going out places?
Were you like answering DMs?
How were you even getting hooked up with people?
Like, were you ghosting people?
What was that like?
I really wasn't, I was talking to somebody for like a little bit.
I never kissed them, make out with them.
They didn't even link up with them.
I just, I was talking to Stefan.
Sometimes I, I stopped.
Sometimes I didn't.
Because I was just so scared.
I was just, I just needed my time.
I needed some time.
I need, I need a time.
And then it's like, you know what?
I'm, I'm going to give it a chance.
but I'm not going to put
too much in it like
it's like girl like
men are weird
not men are weird it's just like men
it's just scary dating is scary
being vulnerable with a person again after what you went through
is what you were scared of or what were you scared of
of everything
just I don't know I was just scared
it's scary
scared out there and then me and in your 30s
and stuff like that and letting people in your world
and the things that people will put in your head.
But I gave it a chance.
Now I'm here.
They're going to be picking apart this album
because some of these songs sound like you're talking about your new relationship.
I am.
She is.
Oh, okay.
I am because it's like I started to feel like it.
Yeah, a lot of songs is about him
because it's like when you date and you like experiencing certain things
that it's like you haven't experienced in a long time,
Like, it's like, I think I really like this guy.
Oh, I got butterflies and stuff like that.
Oh, he played with we have, like.
Was it the castle?
No.
Oh.
We've been talking before that.
Okay.
So we've been talking before that.
It was just really like a talking thing, talking.
Sometimes we didn't, sometimes we did.
It just really was getting to know each other before you really come, before we
really come in our world, like.
I don't belong to you, you don't belong to me,
but now you belong to me.
I wonder if he's ready for this new world, though,
because I saw him get questioned in the locker room the other day.
He's a little different from, he's a little different.
And they press and the world is way different for mine
and stuff like that.
So, but you know what's up?
You see what it is over here?
You're pregnant.
Yeah.
Dave Chalvin.
Yeah, we're right.
Were you scared when you found out that you were pregnant?
Like, were you scared about people's thoughts, opinions, anything?
What were you thinking when you found out?
Certain times I was scared, and then certain times I just wasn't.
Because if I want to have a baby and I want to have a career, I'm going to get it.
I'm going to get everything that I want.
You just got to work.
And you can't complain.
Oh, my feet are, well, you know, you know the consequences.
You know the consequences.
Yeah, people are going to like, like so many people have different opinions.
Like yesterday was a lot.
It was a lot of bad ones.
But it's like, and I understand why because everybody has practically been with me for the past eight years.
So it's like, it's like sometimes it's like, bitch, money business, look what you got?
But it's like, I can't even do that because you, you probably.
you probably like probably you want best for me or probably you don't but at the end of
day like I kind of get it and at the end of day I'm a public figure however like it's like
it is what it is I did I did my decision I'm growing and I and I'm happy I'm excited so then when you
went on to sit down with Gal King did you know you were going to like that was you knew you were
going to like tell people you were pregnant or did you in the moment just be like I'm just ready
to talk about it I I wanted to talk things
on my own term like it's like let me let me put out my tour let me put out my business let me put
out everything on time like everybody just feel like oh oh hold first of all i i don't ever tell
if if people notice like i don't tell right away that i'm pregnant either i'm very superstitious
things things just happen all the time and i do believe that that people speak evil on your on
on your on your kids on your life
especially when you're pregnant
oh I hope the baby cross out is
baby stupid or something like that
there's there's wicked people that
that really don't that do that so it's like
I don't even like to put it out there
I wasn't hiding I couldn't hide like
I had to work I had shit to do
so I ain't hiding from nobody but it's like
damn let me say let me secure certain deals
let me tell let me tell these white folks like hey
I got this at a certain time
Like let me let me close shit up
I want to say it on my time
And I did say it on my time
Would it have been a difference
If I wouldn't just say nothing
And I would have came out like
Hey yeah
So I just had a baby
It wouldn't make no difference to you
Because I was gonna still have it
Whether I would tell you or not
Hey everybody this is Matt Rogers
And you're never gonna guess

I'm Jorge Ramos
And I'm Paola Ramos
Together we're launching The Moment, a new podcast about what it means to live through a time as uncertain as this one.
We sit down with politicians.
I would be the first immigrant mayor in generations, but 40% of New Yorkers were born outside of this country.
Artists and activists, I mean, do you ever feel demoralized?
I might personally lose hope. This individual might lose the faith, but there's an institution that doesn't lose faith.
And that's what I believe in.
to bring you depth and analysis from a unique Latino perspective.
There's not a single day that Paola and I don't call or text each other,
sharing news and thoughts about what's happening in the country.
This new podcast will be a way to make that ongoing intergenerational conversation public.

and my mom is a cousin, so, like, it's not, like...
What do you get when a true crime producer walks into a comedy club?
I know it sounds like the start of a bad joke,
but that really was my reality nine years ago.
I just normally do straight stand-up,
but this is a bit different.
On stage stood a comedian with a story that no one expected to hear.
Well, 22nd of July 2015.
A 23-year-old man had killed his family.
And then he came to my house.
So what do you get when a true crime producer walks into a comedy club?
A new podcast called Wisecrack,
where stand-up comedy and murder takes center stage.
Available now.
Listen to Wisecrack on the IHeart Radio app, Apple Podcasts,
or wherever you get your podcast.
I started trying to get pregnant about four years ago now.
We're getting a little bit older, and it just kind of felt like the window could be closing.
Bloomberg and IHeart Podcasts present IVF Disrupted, the Kind Body Story,
a podcast about a company that promised to revolutionize fertility care.
Introducing Kind Body, a new generation of women's health and fertility care.
backed by millions in venture capital and private equity,
it grew like a tech startup.
While Kind Body did help women start families,
it also left behind a stream of disillusioned and angry patients.
You think you're finally like with the right people in the right hands
and then to find out again that you're just not.
Don't be fooled.
By what?
All the bright and shiny.
Listen to IVF disrupted, the Kind Body story,
starting September 19 on the IHeart Radio,
app apple podcasts or wherever you get your podcasts but let me do it on my thing damn i i just i literally
have a video i just told my mom yesterday i told my mom yesterday i told my dad three days ago like it's
like let me do things on my time what they say my dad he was like boy girl okay and then my mom was like
yeah no i just i don't know why you i thought clearly i got eyes everybody got eyes i mean yeah well now
But did she know
She was dreaming
She probably
Drump the fish
It's not even
No it's not even about like parents
Like it's like even my fans
I think my fans
could probably tell
that I'm pregnant
The day
The day that like my stomach
Don't even look flat
Because they kind of peeped it
From a hot minute ago
Culture's birthday parties
When the first time
I peeped
You were in a red
T-shirt
It was like a long shirt
And I sent it to our group chat
I was like
Do Cardi look pregnant?
I was like no I'm tripping
Like
They've been people
Yeah I was like
Maybe I'm tripping
They've been people
These people
They know me so well
they've been
you would even
you'll be surprised
the day that they peep
and the day that they peep
is like damn
y'all y'all be clocking me
so bad
and you'd be wanting to tell them too
don't you
no not really
I'd be wanting to tell them
live no you're wrong
but they're not wrong
how do you handle
hold on asking something
about the album right
the pleasure principal
sample
was it hard
getting Janet Jackson to clear
it wasn't hard
it wasn't hard
it wasn't
this how I know that she really
likes me because everybody said that it's very, very hard for them to clear anything because
I think it's like the Jackson State, yeah.
Yeah.
And this is how I know they really like me.
They even was like asking like, oh, can we do, can y'all do this, can we do that?
And it's like, oh, whatever the hell y'all are we to do?
Like, sure, but I could tell she really for me because she didn't, and it's two samples.
It's two.
Yes.
It's on my back.
Funny how Tompins fly.
Yes.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Like, I'd be joking around.
Like, it was like, this other should have been
Cardi featuring Janet Jackson.
Yeah.
But she just, it was just so many good ones.
I could have picked.
Did you let her hear the records before?
Yeah.
You have to.
She has to listen to it.
And she was like, I fuck with it.
Yeah, she fucked with it.
Damn, so you got Janet Jackson and Jay Z to clean some shit.
Who made you more nervous?
And could you have handled the rejection if they were like,
nah?
I would have handled it.
I would have handled it.
I would handle it because it's like,
it's not like,
it's not like because it's just like me or is it personal.
They don't really do it for nobody.
So I feel like because with imaginary players,
like I worked on it for a long time that I would have,
if he wouldn't clear it,
I would have been like,
I get it.
But it felt really good when he cleared it.
Like I was like,
ah!
Did you get my record?
Like you really liked my record.
Absolutely.
Was there ever any conversation about Jenny Jackson coming on, like, coming on, like, putting, you know, singing on anything, talking on anything, like, actually being newly on the album as well, too?
It wasn't because, like, it's, like, sample, but, like, it's a little bit, like, I don't know, it's, like, it's, like, different.
It wouldn't have, like, fit, but I do want to work with her, though.
Like, for real, for real.
that she really
fuck with me
and I fuck with her
have y'all built
like now you're having
conversations outside of just that song
since going through that process
and having to be in communication
during that time
I'm very shy
I don't like to talk to artists
everybody knows that about me
I do not like talking to artists like that
and you and Janet
will both be standing there
whispering at each other
and I'm like that time for all
you know what I'm gonna get you out of it
because I know you want to eat
but I haven't seen you spazzing
online a lot lately
what made you slow that down
you ain't spathed in a minute I don't know I kind of did like I kind of did like
two weeks ago because I feel like I'm getting picked on again what was it two weeks
ago I don't remember that it was it was kind of mild okay probably like two weeks probably
like a week but I don't know I just been so I just been so busy we feel like you
you were talking about the um like the you was going at like the podcasters and the blogs
and people reviewing and talk about you musically right was that it it's not even talk about me it's
talk about everything like everything like you know like you guys you guys talk about people but it's like
imagine if you like come every single day and talk about one person every single day every single
time and then it's like all right you don't do it for this person so why you do it to me but and it's
constant and it's constant and it's every week like it's like i like you're like I like
like what's up now you got my attention for real
is that why you did this rollout this because a lot
from that the conversation has been
Carty did the upper brow outlets like you sat with
Gil King you sat with Kelly Rowling you're here with the
breakfast club but you didn't do a lot of upper brow I mean but we are
we're the intersection between the righteous and the ratchet but
these are like these are my people I know these people
people feel like you didn't because of that rant
that like we've seen people have been going to a lot of like
podcast and they're sitting which I know you
You're going to do a stream, right?
I have, I did podcast, though.
They just haven't come up yet.
Oh, okay.
I did do some podcasts, but I'm going to do podcasts with people that, that like me.
Like, why do I got to sit with podcasters that I don't like?
I'm going, I'm like, like, like, for what?
Like, if you don't like me, like, why am I going to go to your shit?
Like, so I could, like, what, prove what to you?
Like, you don't like me, and it is what it is.
Then there.
And you're pregnant.
And you can't swing on nobody if you want to.
No, it is.
I don't hit people
then like I see a lot of people
going like to streamer stuff
I really like I like
um
Fanu

to do a stream with him
like when I

not like right now
because I have so much on my schedule
like when I feel like
general in love like
because I'm gonna go to him
I'm not really like a streamer person
like I'm not up to date to that
because I'm just old
like I'm 33
but I know the younger kids
like it but it's like it's not really like my thing like even on TikTok and stuff like
you don't see me doing TikTok dances not because it's something wrong with it I'm just
I'm just a little older and I just don't know how to do that shit and do this video 10 goddamn
time I'm tired like what I like and what I see on my on my on my timeline that's a that's
who I'm going to go to like you I'm going to go to you and you pregnant like you ain't got
I guess I cannot even say pregnant because I've been doing everything.
I have literally done everything and anything.
Like even after those days in court, I was still doing shit.
Like I have 6 a.m. mornings all the way like today.
Like I woke up today at 6 a.m.
My night was going to finish at 3 a.m.
Because that's when my party finished.
Then tomorrow I have to wake up and I have to do those meet and greets.
And I have to meet about 4,000 or 5,000 people.
Like it's like it just don't stop.
me, but it's like, I'm not going to go to podcasters that I don't like.
Why am I going to go sit down with you?
You don't fucking like me.
You talk mad shit about me.
You contribute, you contribute, like, contribute to, to my pain.
You contribute, like, to my pressure.
So why am I going to sit down with your ass?
I'm going to sit down with people not like, oh, because we were like, oh, you sit down
with people that kiss your eyes.
No, I like positive people.
I like people that make me feel good.
I like people that I be like, you know what?
I like them.
I can hang out with them.
But I don't like you.
Why am I sitting down with you?
to prove what point you know people think you actually pay me they think you pay me uh
talk good about you no i don't i just really and i i really just be talking to charlemagne not all the
time like sometimes you would even believe the things that we would talk about what we talk about
the most politics that's right that's true that's what really we be talking to most of the
most of the time that's what we really be talking about even the other day i was so busy but i was
going to hit you out like it's like uh i would have some jokes for you i would have some jokes for you
Not even to be messy, but, like, to be messy, but it's like, I, I know you could have
came harder, Shalerman.
Come on now.
Are you talking about he was being called a girl?
Yeah, like, it's like, well, I'm going to call a girl.
Like, it's like, you're telling me that I'm not secure to my woman.
My woman is financially secure, though.
That's a fact.
There's nothing wrong being around.
Finanational.
Nick, a daughter birthday fucking part of like a fucking bar mitzba.
Like, what you can't talk to you?
You can't fucking talk to me.
You're asking NBA
You got a view
Have you seen that in the house?
I have
See his wife closet
I'll never leave
Thank you for coming to my daughter's Sweet 16 though
That was amazing
That is like a black ball mixture right
Like it's fly to see black and brown people
doing shit like that
Yeah
And everybody
It just made me realize like it's like wow
So this is how my daughter birthday
is gonna be even 16
Word
All white folks huh
Oh culture is gone
Baby
I don't know
By 16?
Yes, especially when you live at that.
Especially when you live back.
She's going to be to have been famous for a long time at that point.
Pulling up to the fashion shows, yeah, it's going to be very upper brow, very white.
No, it's not even, it's just like, it's just.
Her cousin's going to be there.
You had to be at that party.
So you could see like, wow, you would just have like an understanding of like what the schools are like over there.
Yes, exactly.
So sometimes I be thinking like, it's like, damn, my kid don't got flavor like that.
But that's why they don't have no flavor like that.
But she got you.
Yeah.
We saw Coach you the other day.
Alexander Wang.
Yeah, we talked about it up here.
But they're so innocent.
They're so innocent over there.
They're innocent in Jersey.
But.
That is interesting, right?
Because you're raising your kids in a mansion, right?
In Jersey.
But you grew up in the Bronx.
How do you make sure they don't grow up spoiled?
Because that's what I'd be trying to focus on.
They spoil.
They ain't going to do that.
And it's not even that they spoil.
They don't know nothing else.
They don't know nothing else.
Yeah.
But they do as, you know what I noticed?
As long as they were their cousin, they don't care where they at.
Because when they be in my grandma's house or like when they was in D.R.
In the country, country, they, I kept calling like, are you guys okay?
As long as they were their cousin, kids are okay.
They just got to be with their cousins.
That's the trick.
They got to be with their cousins.
They're going to have a good time anywhere, long as their cousins is around,
their friends around.
What's up with Hennessy?
I see you got her tattooed on your arm
and it seemed like Hennessy be on the loaf.
Is that on purpose?
I don't know why she became such an introvert.
Yeah.
I don't know.
Because my sister, she really have,
we're really like almost the same person,
the same person.
Like we have the same attitude, the same.
We talk the same, everything.
We do have like, we are a little different in certain ways.
But she just,
she's just like an introvert.
And sometimes I wish that she was more out there, but then it's like, maybe she shouldn't be out there because she's just, she's a bomb.
My sister's a bomb, but I do be wishing that she's, like, more out there.
Because she was doing a fashion thing at one point.
Yeah.
She was, like, designing and she was doing that.
I thought that was going to be, like, her thing.
Yeah.
She was good.
What could be said about her?
I made a joke with my mom yesterday.
I was like, for every year, the Hennessy don't have a baby,
I'm going to have one.
Damn.
She's like, what the hell, Cardi?
And my mom didn't find the joke funny.
Did being in the Bronx keep you grounded?
Grounded as in what?
Just grind it, like keep your feet on the ground,
let you know it's always really important.
Fuck all of the industry.
and everything, just keeps you grounded.
Do you find your peace
when you home in the Bronx is what I'm saying?
Yeah, I have fun.
I personally like going over there
because it's fun to me.
Like, it's like,
when you, like, in your backyard all day,
you get bored.
It's silence.
Then you can't bring everybody to your house.
Like, you can't bring everybody to your house.
I'm going to go to the block.
But you got to know how to be in the blog.
You can't do too much.
Like, I'm not going to.
I'm going to go to the block and I'm dressed up makeup.
I'm being sweats and everything, you never know when I, when I'm there.
You just never know, but I'll be there.
Just, it just feels good.
I'm chilling.
I'm with my friends.
You are people you know.
Yeah.
I want to go back to something you had said.
You said that you are shy around other artists, which is hard.
You got to eat too now.
Okay.
Give them up.
This is my, this is why, this is trying to get this in early.
I think you try to eat.
No, we just want to make sure you eat.
I'm just talking for two.
I know you're tired.
Yes.
You know, you're tired.
I'm good.
You said you shy around other artists
and you kind of to yourself.
Is that because you've been like burned in the past
by like trying to develop relationships?
I saw that Kelly Rowland interview
where you said you had reached out
to the young girls that's going to come up
and then you found out it was dealing with your man
behind you, ex-man behind your back?
Is that?
Isn't that?
That is one of the, oh well, the original question is,
no, I'm just naturally like shy around people
and stuff like that.
And then it's like sometimes it's like
some people you just cannot relate.
relate and to relate with them with like if if I'm in a room with like a certain artist right
and we grew up differently we grew up in different places what are we talking about
so it's like so that dumb ass small talk I hate I hate small talk like what are we in the
eating dinner for yeah what are we talking about I rather just us be in the club we don't
at all turn up and drink I don't really like what is there to talk about like we don't have
nothing in common for real like I'm but there is certain like girls though that I feel like
I had supported because I generally like their music and I'm playing their music not because
I need something from them I'm playing it because it's like this song is hot right now
This is a song that I'm putting on repeat.
And I don't expect you to kiss my ass or be on dick or nothing like that.
But it's like, you're supporting a bitch and bitches really dead don't like you.
And it's like, damn, this is why you even got to be careful who song you're playing.
You got to be even careful who song you're playing because it's like,
you're playing a bitch song because you like it.
And the bitch really just don't fuck with you.
and there's some
bitches like it's like
you'll be
asking yourself
like it was like damn
did I say something
that sounded like I was loving somebody
or something
and it's like no
you just fuck my nigga
but that's
that's not all
that's not all
is this one person in particular
no it's a couple
oh god
there's a couple
it's not even rap girls
no there is rap girls
there's a couple
could you know
when you said that the other day
that interview
whole guessing game of who you were talking about it's a couple it's a couple and it'd be weird too
because it's like some some some girls it'd be weird because it's like some girls like it's like
they will even try to be friends with your friends or try to be friends with this and it's like
what you coming around for what you coming around for it got to the point that it's like I had to
start policing my friends like it's like oh this girl hit me up why she hit me up why she
I'm hitting you up.
Mm.
Mm.
Hit up, but check the temperature.
Right.
And there's that, oh, this is what she was coming around.
Bitches is weird.

I really want to, I want to fuck with you.
Like, I want to be your people.
Who?
Just whoever the woman is, whoever these persons are talking about.
That's why she goes to your other friend.

It's funny, but it's really not funny.
You shouldn't have to deal with that.
What?
Like, just being friendly or being encouraging to somebody, that's the most
craziest feeling ever.
Like, that's what crazy.
Especially because the girl might not owe you nothing, but like, your man at the time,

this is what I actually had a problem
with you with and I'm like
That's what you had a problem with me?
This is not something to have a problem about.
Baby, like, we could have been to talk about it.
This is really, this is really minor.
Like, are you sure?
And it's like, you know what?
That was stupid.
And then they gave me flowers.
Literally flowers.
And I was pregnant, too, with my son.
Gave me flowers and everything.
Then months later, I found out you fuck this nigga.
Oh, God.
And stuff like that be weird to me
Because it's like if a bitch
Fuck your nigga or whatever like that
It's like
A bitch don't owe you nothing
Just stay over there
Just stay over there
But that's how weird and sick bitches are
Like you're a weirdo
And as a matter of fact
How did that conversation win that day
That conversation was like
Oh you're late
And I was like
I'm late
I was doing things
And then when like they gave me flowers
I was like
And you know what I'm sorry I'm late
I'm just going through a lot.
I'm pregnant.
They're like, oh, you're pregnant, this and that.
And then it's like, I kept telling myself.
This is why niggas be fucked niggas, like,
because you can't always blame it on the bitch,
but this is how much bitches is weird.
So you gave me flowers.
I said that I'm pregnant.
And then I find out much later that you fuck my nigger.
You bitches are fucking, you host is crazy.
Y'all's is crazy.
Do you let them know you know?
They know I know.
That girl, did you go back and y'all had a conversation about it after?
No, I don't have to have a conversation no more
I know and you know that I know
And you know I have the receipts
The real receipts
I don't even play with receipts
I got them receipts
If I don't even have the receipts
I wouldn't talk about it
Because I have to prove it
I like to prove it
But it's like
It's just like
This is why it's like
Oh my gosh
I want to stay away from everybody
Everybody
And it's not even about
That's just a nigger thing
There's bitches that is like
I support it
That is like, I support you because, like I said, I like you.
And all of a sudden, like, you, you're subbing me and you're playing internet games to appease certain people.
And it's like, I ain't never even did nothing to you, bitch.
You know what?
Everybody got to turn.
You're still cool with a lot of the rap girls, though, right?
Mm-hmm.
Yeah.
There is a lot of, there is a lot of, like, the rap girls.
Like, glow, glow is your cousin.
Glow, I fuck with Glow.
Glow, I'm never going to talk about it.
One day, probably in 10 years, I'll talk about it.
She did some real, real, real bitch shit.
That was like, I appreciate this bitch.
Megan, I don't really talk to Megan much,
but it's like I'm always appreciate the fact that, like,
when I told her to come through, she'll come through.
And I'm just like, oh, here's a verse.
Like, she would really like, hey,
not only do I need a verse from you,
I need like 10 days of rehearsals and I need,
just so we can make it great, of course.
not she don't have to but she does it and I always appreciate that like when you make time
with a feature artist and they put in that effort that they don't have to do I will forever
appreciate that because me I just want to get a verse done and if we do a music video we do a music
video she put her time everything in it so I appreciate that I like la la la she's very like she's very
honest she's very cool she's she's a very sweet girl she gave me a Chanel bag so why did you ask
this my last question why did you ask yourself am i the drama because it and i like that you
holding yourself accountable you know from what you might be on but why did you ask yourself that
question i mean because i just always feel like i just always feel like she just always come
to me or like i said like it's like there will be people that just don't like me or they
like pick on me or something because you're on top but it always been like that even when
I was like in high school because you've always been on top regardless of the money your personality
the fact that people naturally gravitate towards you the fact that people naturally like you
know some motherfuckers or hate you just because of how everybody else love you yes and that's why it's
like damn am I the drama am I the ones and is it me Jesus like it's like why oh why I'm always
Like, it's like, it's like, things could go a certain type of way for me, but it's just not
going to go.
It's like, I don't know if I chase the bad things.
I don't know if the bad things is me, I don't think, but I'm also very blessed too.
Like, it's like, maybe I be thinking it's because my, it is my personality.
It is because, like, my voice just stand out.
And it always been like that, which is a, it's a, it's a, it's God.
It's God.
It's a blessing.
Sometimes it occurs, but it's really like a blessing because sometimes I feel like I get it
harder than most.
And I don't care if people say that they don't see it,
they know it.
They know it.
I really get it hard harder than most.
But then again, I am very blessed.
And some people might think that it's like, well,
she don't get that much because she's still here
and she stays in certain things.
And it's like, maybe I am blessed, or maybe I just, I don't know.
Well, don't spend all day looking at the motherfucking comments.
No, no, no.
Let the album come out.
Yeah.
Let people have their opinion and you keep it to fuck moving, okay?
Yeah.
I'm so happy that I got this.

You're here or no.
I do know.
This is supposed to be the gender reveal part of the.
Ah, you're trying to check me.
You're trying to chick me.
No, no, no.
You know, I always, I always.
say, when the baby's born, I always revealed the gender.
I always do it.
I always do that.
Duh.
Everybody.
I mean, I don't, I don't, I feel like certain people, they will wait mad long.
It takes time.
And, like, I always do it, like, when I get birth.
Then, like, probably, like, six months later.
Yeah, it's always, like, six months later.
I always show my baby, you know, you got to develop, sometimes they look a little funny.
My son was fucking funny looking when he was born.
Because on the album, you said, you're going to give this man a son.
I was like, oh, it's a little boy.
I was just trying to rhyme me.

In early 1988, federal agents raced to track down the gang they suspect of importing millions

Had 30 agents ready to go with shotguns and rifles and you name it.
Five, six white people.
Push me in the car, I'm going to go, what about that?
Basically, your stay-at-home moms
were picking up these large amounts of heroin.
All you got to do is receive the package.
Don't have to open it, just accept it.
