New York, NY (Top40 Charts) History-making Hip-Hop icon, Cardi B, has released the highly anticipated video for hit track, "
Be Careful" off her #1 debut album "Invasion of Privacy." The video, directed by Jora Frantzis, is the follow up to last month's video for "Bartier Cardi (feat. 21 Savage)" directed by famed artist Petra Collins, which has since amassed over 19 million views. "
Invasion Of Privacy" instantly broke records with the biggest ever first week streams for a debut album and female artist as well as topping the Billboard 200 chart, Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart, Top Rap Albums and Top
Digital Album charts. The acclaimed album entered the record books at the 5th largest streaming debut of all time. Additionally, last night saw
Cardi B take home the award for Top Rap Female Artist at the Billboard
Music Awards.
"INVASION OF PRIVACY" - which includes the 5x RIAA platinum certified classic, "Bodak Yellow," alongside the platinum certified smash, "Bartier Cardi (feat. 21 Savage)," standout favorites like "
Be Careful" and "I Like It," featuring
Bad Bunny and
J Balvin and a spectacular lineup of featured appearances from Chance The Rapper, SZA, Kehlani, Migos, and YG - has drawn critical acclaim around the world to match its remarkable popular success. "INVASION OF PRIVACY" "is lavishly emotional, intimately personal, wildly funny," announced Rolling Stone in its four-starred rave. "Still, there's no question whose album this is. Funny, fierce, foul-mouthed and in-your-face, "Invasion of Privacy" is one of the most powerful debuts of this millennium," declared Variety. "The 25-year-old's debut album shows off her hard work, versatility and ambition, mixing quick-jab rhymes with the enthusiasm and charm that have made her a star," raves The New York Times. Pitchfork summed it up best: "Cardi B's remarkable debut places her, without a doubt, in the pantheon of great rappers. It is both brazen and vulnerable, filled with wild amounts of personality, style, and craft."
