Welcome to history, Cardi B!
The “Money” rapper made bank at the 61st Grammy Awards when she won Best Rap Album — becoming the first solo female to do so.
“The nerves are so bad. Maybe I need to start smoking weed,” the 26 year old quipped during her acceptance speech. “I just want to say thank you everybody that was involved… I want to thank my daughter.”
Cardi was only one of the females who fared well on music’s biggest night.
Dua Lipa took home the award for Best New Artist, rewarding her for a year worth of hits; while Kacey Musgrave walked away with Album of the Year for her offering Golden Hour.
Best R&B Album went to H.E.R., and Lady Gaga shared the spoils for Best Pop Duo/Group Performance with Bradley Cooper for the Oscar-nominated song, “Shallow.”
Two days after releasing her latest album, Thank U, Next, Ariana Grande picked up Best Pop Album for Sweetener.
The “7 Rings” singer did not accept the award herself, as she was not in attendance due to a dispute with producers over which song she was allowed to perform.
The men were not left out, however, with Childish Gambino winning the biggest awards of the night — Record of the Year and Song of the Year, as well as Best Music Video, all for “This Is America.”
