Cardi B is our new Bronx-diva and we were so excited when she announced she had gotten engaged with Offset, it was the perfect pairing. At the beginning of the year the "Bodak Yellow" hitmaker tweeted out her man had cheated on her, but nothing was confirmed and the tweet was later deleted. Now, the Migos member is saying the wedding is being postponed and they are not planning anything, which has led the fandom to speculate if the couple is going through a rough patch.

"We ain't, we ain't planning it right now," he told Rolling Stone. "We chilling. We don't got time for that right now." When the reporter pressed on the issue, Offset refused to give any details. "It's my real life," he added. "It ain't no gig. It ain't no fucking game, you know what I'm saying? It ain't no game. It's my life."

In the same interview the hip-hop artist seems to be really into Cardi B and their wedding plans postponement probably only has to do with their heavy work schedules. "She is real solid, came from where I came from, did what I did," he told the magazine. "She's herself, man. I seen her develop from the trenches all the way up, and I like how she did it. I respect her grind as a woman. She came to the game with some gangsta shit. I like that. I fuck with her. That's my baby."

Cardi B has continued to smash it and make history on the Billboard charts and is now part of a league where their first three singles have reached the Top 10 of the Billboard Hot 100 at the same time. The rapper has "No Limit" with G-Eazy and A$AP Rocky in the fourth spot, "MotorSport" with Migos and Nicki Minaj at number seven, and "Bodak Yellow" at number ten.

With this achievement the Bronx-diva joins the ranks of The Beatles that achieved this feat when they took the Top 3 spots with "I Want To Hold Your Hand", "She Loves You" and "Please Please Me," respectively. Ashanti also accomplished this with "Foolish", "What's Luv?" and "Always On Time."

In September 2017, Cardi B made history with "Bodak Yellow" as the first female rapper to top the Hot 100 Billboard music chart in 19 years and the first rapper of Dominican descent to ever reach that place in the chart. The previous record holder was Lauryn Hill, who topped the chart with no other billed artist. Cardi B, from the Bronx, had the number two spot last week and was able to overtake and dethrone "Look What You Made Me Do" by Taylor Swift. The Dominican rapper even threw a little shade at the former queen when she celebrated her number one spot by singing the chorus of the tune she toppled.

Cardi B, born Belcalis Almanzar to a Dominican father and Trinidadian mother, grew up in the South Bronx. She is only the fifth female rapper to top the Hot 100 after Lil' Kim who was featured on "Lady Marmalade," Shawnna who collaborated with Ludacris on "Stand Up," Iggy Azalea who led with "Fancy" along with Charli XCX. According to Billboard, Cardi B is also the first female solo artist to lead the Hot 100 list with no featured artist since Meghan Trainor's "All About That Bass."
