Book Description
The elusive apex of critical praise and commercial success is a metric achieved by a select few. In 2020 Cardi B has become synonymous with "record breaking" in the new millennium. Whether it's streaming, charting, views, likes, retweets or shares Cardi dominates. Cardi B's ascension to stardom is also pure 21st century; from welfare kid to unapologetic stripper, to reality TV persona, to social media maven, to a household name delivering one of the consummately executed albums in Rap History, it's easy to imagine future critics noting popular music as before and after the rise of Cardi B.This in-depth look at Invasion of Privacy features a track-by-track breakdown of the album, with an accompanying conversation or essay from a collection of voices about a topic each song addresses. It explores the album's multicultural musical influences, technical elements of production, and the producers on the record. It includes a summation of awards and note the record's chart shattering success--going 5x Platinum while establishing Invasion of Privacy as the longest charting record by a female rapper in history.
