How is she different from Iggy?
she's looking like basically the opposite of Iggy.
Iggy got popular off her looks and a few mixtapes, threw in rap, and got destroyed by her haters and apparent inauthenticity, being an outsider to the actual culture.
Cardi got popular off her authenticity, threw in rap, has upgraded her looks and now is pretty much at the top. She was basically molded from the actual culture.
On the other hand, Iggy and Desiigner have
never been particularly good from a lyrical standpoint. Now, I have always defended Iggy, when people would knock her for being a trash lyricist. And nobody would ever have shit to say when i'd ask how they'd be okay with talk/mumble rap but have a problem with Iggy.
Cardi on the other hand, she obviously makes stripclub music but i'll be damned if she doesn't actually have bars better than most of the popular artists on the radio today.
She's a former Blood. She was fired from the Supermarket and became a stripper. If she wasn't cute yall would give two shits what she had to say. She got breast implants. She got ass implants. Let's be real. You can like her. Let's not pretend she's got some deep message. I don't like her. We can disagree. It's all good.
Cardi has never given off the impression that she has a deep message to send, she's hilariously open about how shallow she is
