Cardi B. hits #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 with "Bodak Yellow"

Cardi B. is having the best week ever as her single, "Bodak Yellow" has FINALLY hit #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. "Bodak Yellow" is the first solo single from a female rapper to top the chart since 1998 when Lauryn Hill released "Doo Wop(That Thing)". Cardi has received congratulations from everyone from Missy Elliott to singer Taylor Swift(who sent the rapper flowers for her achievements). I would definitely say "Bodak Yellow" is the song of the Summer. Congrats to Cardi B. Now that Cardi has hit #1 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart, people will be waiting to hear what Cardi has in store for us next musically. She was slated to drop an album in October but its since been pushed back to an unspecified date. I really think Atlantic needs to strike while the iron is hot! Either way I think whenever she releases her debut album it will be a success. I just don't think they should wait forever to release it.
  • Singer Tamar Braxton says her new album, "Bluebird of Happiness" will be her last album as she will spend time repairing her broken marriage. I wasn't aware there were cracks in the marriage between Tamar and Vince(Tamar's husband) but good luck to the couple as they set out to mend their marriage. I can only imagine how hard that is especially when your marriage has been under public scrutiny. I also feel for Vince because Tamar is a great singer but her personality is way too over the top even for me and I love over the top for reality TV but she is too much sometimes in my honest opinion. Meanwhile in other Braxton family news; her sister, Toni Braxton's new single, "Deadwood" was the most added single at Urban AC radio last week. Congrats to Toni!

  • Azealia Banks is set to release her new album, "Fantasea II: The Second Wave" on October 31(Halloween) the same day as her Mermaid Ball. Azealia just finished touring overseas and will be touring North America starting next month. She will hit spots in Detroit, Chicago, and Atlanta just to name a few. I was fortunate enough to see Azealia live in Chicago a few years back and it was a great experience. In support of her new album, Azealia will release new singles, "Movin' On Up(originally from her movie, "Coco")/Wut U Do" on September 30. I hope Azealia sticks to this release date and not push it back. I also read that she deactivated her Twitter account perhaps to concentrate on music and to stop "hating" on Cardi B. :)
