From the moment Cardi B started rapping for money, she wanted to be the shrewdest in the game, even if she wasn’t the technical best. It was after the summer of “Bodak Yellow,” her playfully taunting mainstream introduction—and the first of four unprecedented No. 1 hits—that she became unstoppable, moving at roadrunner speeds. The audacity, humor, and business savvy that made her famous on both Instagram and reality TV carried over to her debut album, Invasion of Privacy. Her music was sensitive and hardcore, carefully crafted, and, most of all, likable. The bass on “I Like It" seemed made to blow out speakers on any continent, and “Be Careful” was Cardi's rap version of a quiet storm anthem. Her once unrefined flow—a subject of ridicule—was more sculpted, even next to agile guests like Migos, Chance the Rapper, and SZA. It was a seamless debut, made better by the fact that it wasn’t supposed to be this good. –Clover Hope

从Cardi B开始说唱赚钱的那一刻起，她就想成为该领域中最聪明的人，即使她在说唱技术上不是最好的。“Bodak Yellow”大火的那个夏天——这是她四次榜单冠军中（三首冠军单曲，一首冠军专辑）的第一首歌——她以颇具喜剧的小品风将自己介绍于众，从那开始她就已经势不可挡，像一台超级计算机极速前进着。她的大胆、幽默和商业头脑让她在Instagram和真人秀电视上都名声大噪，热度也延续到了她发行的首张专辑《侵犯隐私》(Invasion of Privacy)中。她的音乐敏感而中肯，制作精良，最重要的是，受到了广泛赞扬和喜爱。“I Like It”的低音似乎能让世间之人都为之疯狂，而“Be Careful”则是Cardi的说唱式“宁静风暴之圣歌”。她这未经雕刻的说唱flow——也总是一个被嘲笑的点——甚至比Migos、Chance the Rapper和SZA等专辑中的音乐之客更有雕塑感。这是一次完美的亮相，因这张专辑大大超出了人们的预期。
