Cardi B Wants To Be A Billionaire
When asked about what she had planned next career-wise, Cardi admitted she saw billion-dollar deals in her future and she knew just how to get them. The Bronx-native revealed she looked up to some of the richest hip-hop stars out there, Rihanna and JAY-Z, and would focus on getting to their level by making the right business deals.
“But now that I’m at the level that I’m at, one of my biggest influence is Rihanna and Jay-Z. And I’m not just saying it to kiss a– 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.” (Stationhead)
Cardi B Shares Her Wealth W/ Kodak Black

JAY-Z Explains The Major Moves It Took To Succeed
JAY-Z is now worth over $1.4 billion. In just several weeks, his net worth has risen over 40% following the sale of TIDAL to Square on March 4th, 2021, and his absurd $300 million champagne deal. The Blueprint boss also says he can’t just do music and needs to keep business moves going if he wants to keep raking in the dough and it’s paying off, so perhaps his advice is worth heeding. Hov also highlighted the importance of keeping the right crew around.
“I look at the make-up of individuals or a group and say, ‘Hey, wow, that’d be a cool group to hang out with” … It’s a certain decorum that they have, a certain way that they carry themselves and their business, [with] high integrity and passion for what they do. I just want to be surrounded by great people.” (JAY-Z to SCMP)
