Speaking about the legacy of female rappers in the game, Cardi said, "When I was six, seven, eight, there was a lot different female rappers and then there was a time that there was no female rappers at all."

She added, "I have to keep replaying songs from the early 2000s. I have to keep replaying it, replaying it, replaying it because for a while there wasn't no female rapper."

Appearing to pay her respects to Nicki Minaj, Cardi then said, "And then there was one female rapper that dominated for a very long time. You know what I'm saying? And she did pretty good. She's been still dominating."
