Cardi B Brings High-Energy Performance to SNL with 'Bodega Baddie' and 'ErrTime'
The Queen of Hip-Hop returned to Saturday Night Live (SNL) last weekend, treating fans to a high-octane performance that highlighted her latest album's standout tracks. Cardi B's 33-track album, Am I the Drama?, marked a triumphant comeback for the Bronx native, who has solidified her status as a chart-topping icon.
The show kicked off with the infectious "Bodega Baddie," a merengue and dembow-influenced anthem that showcased Cardi's versatility and undeniable stage presence. The song, which has been making waves on streaming platforms, was a fitting opener for what promised to be an electrifying setlist.
Next up was "ErrTime," a nominee for Outstanding Hip Hop/Rap Song at the NAACP Image Awards later this month. The song's edgy beats and Cardi's signature flow made for a compelling performance that left audiences eager for more.
Throughout her SNL appearance, Cardi B revealed glimpses of what went on behind the scenes during the writing process for Am I the Drama?. In an early 2024 interview with Rolling Stone, she confessed to being a different person every day and having various artistic visions, from club-friendly anthems to pop-infused hits.
The rapper's return to SNL marks a significant milestone in her career, as it cements her status as one of hip-hop's most bankable stars. With the launch of her first headline arena tour, Little Miss Drama, set for February on the west coast, Cardi B is poised to take the stage by storm once again.
As Am I the Drama? continues to rack up critical acclaim, it remains clear that Cardi B has cemented her position as a force to be reckoned with in the music industry.
