When you’re committed to evolving, the only way to go is up, and that’s Cardi B’s story. Before becoming a music star and having a social media following of over 100 million, she was in hustle mode to make her music career pop off.

He was one-third of the popular rap group Migos before pursuing a solo career and is husband to Cardi B , a female MC who needs no introduction. But the southern music artist has been in the entertainment industry for years — including as a backup dancer to Whitney Houston at one point.
