Cardi B performed on New Year’s Eve (Dec. 31) at Fontainebleau Miami Beach as part of the “Dick Clark’s New Year’s Rockin’ Eve” broadcast. Post Malone, Doechii, Janelle Monáe, Ludacris, Nile Rodgers, Coco Jones, and other celebrities also made appearances. The NYC artist visited a Miami club after her performance and shocked the crowd with some previously unheard tracks. Cardi was seen rapping to an unidentified song in a social media video while money was tossed in the air in the foreground.

 

 

 

Cardi disclosed what appeared to be an illness on her Instagram Stories before the celebrations. Right now, I’m battling for my life. In a little film, she declared, “I’m literally fighting for my life right now.” Like, I’m really ill. And I find that incomprehensible because I was out in New York wearing sweaters and showing off all of my toes. I performed well. [As] soon as I get to Miami, my friend… I will inform others. Miami triggers an allergy in me. Florida allergies me. The state irritates me. Then she reported that her “chest started getting tight” and that she had a “little cough.”

 

Five years have passed since Cardi B’s official debut album, Invasion of Privacy, was published. It had 13 tracks and features guest appearances from artists such as Migos, Chance The Rapper, Bad Bunny, J Balvin, Kehlani, 21 Savage, YG, and SZA. With 255,000 album-equivalent units sold, the record opened at No. 1 on the Billboard 200, marking its enormous popularity. Additionally, the project was certified quadruple platinum.
