Cardi B Brings A Fearsome Presence To Fat Joe And Anuel AA's Nostalgic 'Yes'

Cardi B brings the hammer to Fat Joe's new single, "Yes" which also features Anuel AA. This bilingual party starter is a ball of energy that keeps it up and continues to unfurl over the course of three minutes and finds Cardi B, in particular, bringing an avalanche of icy energy to the proceedings. Her threats and boasts have never sounded so crisp and electric.


Cardi B's verse comes second on the nostalgic-sounding tune that wouldn't sound out of place at a night club in 2003, where its inhabitants are wearing large NBA jerseys and hats tilted sideways to the back. The "Please Me" rapper spits about what she has, how she got it, and what she'll do to defend it. She places herself on the rap's throne by telling each person just how hard she's been working: I been in my bag/ Hoppin' outta jets/Been runnin' shit/ And still ain't outta breath," she hisses because the venom drips from her fangs. Immediately after calling out her detractors, she gives them a phone number to dial her at (1-800 59 BX). It's probably not a real number, nevertheless yet still, you've got to admit, it's pretty hilarious.


Cardi B is set to appear in the film Hustlers that comes out on September 13. Earlier this year, she released "Press" and "Please Me." Any time she's not lighting up other people's songs with fiery features, she's crafting hits for herself.


Listen to "Yes" up above.
