Cardi B Gets Fans Riled Up Over New Single, “Like What (Freestyle)”: See Reactions

Cardi B is back, and the Bardi Gang couldn’t be happier with her new single, the vicious “Like What (Freestyle).” Moreover, social media lit up with a firestorm of reactions, whether they were excited, skeptical, critical, or simply happy to have an album rollout finally in our hands. Sure, there was the Megan Thee Stallion collab “Bongos” last year, but this feels like a more elaborate and special drop with more anticipation behind it. After all, both femcees basically did a dual comeback moment, and they both went on to provide the true individual kick-offs to their respective new eras.

Furthermore, a lot of fans broke down the bars on “Like What (Freestyle),” commented on the Missy Elliott and Timbaland sampling in the beat, and spoke on Cardi B’s performance as a rapper. Overall, reactions seem pretty positive online, and most folks understood the assignment and are looking at this as a straight-up rap song. But another notable aspect that folks found curious was the fact that the Bronx rapper’s on-and-off-again husband, Offset, directed the video. The Bardi Gang reacted particularly wildly to this, as their relationship status is still unclear.

Fans React To Cardi B’s “Like What (Freestyle)”: The Good, The Bad & The Bardi

For example, a Valentine’s Day date indicated that they were patching things up following news that they were split for a while. In addition, they both continued to support each other’s moves and, clearly, chose to eschew this personal separation’s impact on their professional working relationship. Regardless, Cardi B’s listeners have a lot more to chew on, such as brand references, cheeky turns of phrase, and a whole lot of attitude. It’s great to see her reenergized like this, and you can check out more fan reactions down below.

Offset Directing Cardi B’s “Like What” Music Video Is Drawing All Sorts Of Reactions From The Bardigang

After months upon months of waiting for Cardi B to put out something, she delivered in a big way. Her loyal Bardigang were constantly flooding social media timelines with #WhereIsCardi and elaborate memes o’plenty. All of that begging and pleading worked as the gritty femcee from New York has just released her first single in about six months with “Like What (Freestyle).” The other interesting angle in all of this is her hubby. Offset directed the music video for “Like What,” and it is pulling in a lot of different reactions. The couple has dealt with a lot of internal struggles, but they appear to be on good standing.

They set the internet in a blaze a couple of months ago when they unfollowed each other on Instagram. However, since that breakup, they have slowly put the pieces back together. Clearly they are doing well considering how heavily involved the Georgia rapper has been with this single and convincing Cardi to drop her sophomore record. However, while they may be happy, fans have some mixed reactions to Offset directing the visuals for “Like What.”

Cardi B & Offset Are Back

There is an extensive thread of the Bardigang giving their opinions on the situation and some of them are downright hilarious. For example, one of the two above has one person “so excited” to have him back in the femcee’s life. Conversely, the other fan is jiving with their team effort. Even with the lukewarm feelings towards all of this, the music video is doing numbers on YouTube already. Since its premiere about 10 hours ago, it has racked up over 750,000 views. That is good enough for number two on trending for music.

Cardi B Serves Look After Look In Her Lavish New ‘Like What (Freestyle)’ Video

Cardi B has her foot on the gas. Tonight (March 1), she dropped her new single “Like What Freestyle,” on which, she lets none of her opps rest.

The song features a prominent sample of Missy Elliott‘s classic 1999 single, “She’s A B*tch,” and Cardi arrives with the same eccentric and charismatic energy Missy did 25 years ago.

She delivers some of the most scorching bars of her career, as she reminds us all how quickly she can switch it up.

“Classy and a c*nt / Blocks and money gettin’ spunt / Like what? / Like a Coach bag, baby, this ain’t what you want / If I ask for it, all I wanna hear is, ‘Yes’ / B*tch said she wanna be my opp, God bless / Look, I ain’t even got dressed / Any L that I took, come after YS,” she raps on the song’s chorus.

In the accompanying video, Cardi invites us into her lavish lifestyle, as she serves several looks, and eats sushi out of a YSL bag by her pool.

The end credits reveal that the video was directed by Offset, and that more music is on the way.

“This is just the beginning…stay tuned,” reads a screen at the end of the visual.
