Cardi B Reveals Her 'Biggest Influences' Are Rihanna and Jay-Z, Wants To Be 'Billion-Dollar Woman'

Cardi B wants to become a "billion-dollar woman" like Rihanna. During her guesting on Stationhead Wednesday, the 28-year-old rapper mentioned Riri as one of her biggest influences alongside Jay-Z.

"When I came to the game and people used to be like, 'Who do you look up to?' I always used to say, 'I don't look up to nobody,' because I didn't really understand the game and I only feel like I got influenced by the people that was [sic] around me," she explained as per People.

"But now that I'm at the level that I'm at, one of my biggest influences is Rihanna and Jay-Z," Cardi said. "And I'm not just saying it to kiss ass or anything. I just feel like they're so influential because Rihanna comes from a country, a Caribbean country, that my parents came from and she's a whole billionaire."

"But for her to make her business so big and be a billionaire, that's what I strive to be. That's what I want. I want to be a billion-dollar woman. I want to build a huge brand," she added.

"And Jay-Z, he's from the hood just like me. He's from the hood and this man's a whole billionaire," Billboard quoted Cardi as saying. "And that's just all about strategy and that's just all about shaking hands, that's just all about putting plans together."

Errol Webber, a California gubernatorial candidate, took to Twitter Wednesday to post a video of Cardi.

"Cardi B cuts off WAP when her daughter, Kulture, walks into the room. She looks embarrassed," Webber tweeted. "This is how you know Cardi B knows right from wrong, yet STILL deliberately chooses to do wrong by girating [sic] and scissoring her WAP on national TV... in view of other people's kids."

Cardi noticed the post and retweeted it, noting that her performance took place at around 10 p.m., when children were supposed to be asleep.

"The Grammies are [sic] PG .That means parental guidance.Meaning is your job like it is to mine to my child to monitor what they watch," she noted. "My performance was around 10 pm on a Sunday Your child should be in bed ready for school the next day why are they up watching Wap?"

It was not the first time Cardi got criticism for her "WAP" performance with Meghan Thee Stallion at the 63rd Annual Grammy Awards. Just recently, she made headlines for getting into a Twitter fight with conservative author and political commentator Candace Owens, who also slammed her for the controversial number.
