On Monday, Cardi B made history by becoming the first female rapper to have two No. 1 singles on the Billboard Hot 100. So naturally she celebrated her new record in true Cardi fashion: with a good, old-fashioned twerk sesh. Upon hearing the news, the pregnant rapper immediately took to her Instagram with the festive video. In the clip, which is superimposed with "NUMBER 1 AGAIN" in giant numbers, Cardi B lets out a celebratory, "Number one, I'm number one, I'm number one!" before planting her hands on the bed and twerking with unadulterated enthusiasm in a floral maternity dress. As Billboard announced, Cardi B topped the charts again with "I Like It," the collaboration with Bad Bunny and J Balvin from her new album, Invasion of Privacy. Her first No. 1 single was, of course, "Bodak Yellow," which made her a household name all the way back in October 2017. This is, obviously, a big deal. To put it into perspective, according to Billboard, only four other female rappers besides Cardi have scored a No. 1 single: Lauryn Hill, with "Doo Wop (That Thing)" in 1998; Lil' Kim, with "Lady Marmalade" in 2001 (with Christina Aguilera, Mya, and P!nk); Shawnna, with Ludacris's "Stand Up" in 2003; and Iggy Azalea, with the Charli XCX-featuring "Fancy" in 2014. This isn't the first time Cardi B has celebrated a chart-topping record with a signature Cardi move. In April she reacted to her single "Bartier Cardi" going platinum by tweeting, "Foreal😱😱😱😱😱yaaaaayyyyy!! Made my day ..Floppy B." Before that, in January she celebrated having three Billboard Hot 100 singles in the top 10 at the same time.

The Latina rapper, who blessed fans with the summer banger "Bodak Yellow" last year, claimed the summer was hers with another No. 1 spot on Billboard's Hot 100 chart. Cardi's latest single, "I Like It," featuring Bad Bunny and J Balvin, moved up to the top spot on Billboard's most popular chart Tuesday. While a number of Cardi's songs have appeared on the chart, "I Like It" marks her second time topping the list. Her position on the chart is the first time a woman has scored two Hot 100 No. 1 singles. When Cardi first snagged the No. 1 spot on the Billboard chart in October 2017, she made history by becoming the second solo female artist to achieve the feat. Lauren Hill was the first one to do so with 1998's hit "Doo Wop (That Thing)." "I Like It" also marks the first time Bunny and Balvin have received No. 1 recognition on the Hot 100 chart. The song appeared on Cardi's debut album, Invasion of Privacy, released in April, and was an instant favorite with fans. The half-Spanish record was a sample of the Pete Rodriguez's 1967 hit, "I Like It Like That." The song was reworked by Latino artists a number of times, most memorably in a 1997 cover—simplified to "I Like It"—by The Blackout Allstars. That version claimed the chart's No. 25 spot after its release, Billboard reported. Puerto Rican musician Tito Nieves also recorded a solo cover of the song, and "I Like It Like That" appeared in the 1994 movie of the same name, starring Jon Seda and Lauren Vélez. In addition to being the first female artist to secure two No. 1's on the chart, the soon-to-be mother is the first artist to achieve the honor from a debut album since Macklemore & Ryan Lewis's 2013 alum The Heist. Both singles, "Thrift Shop," featuring Wanz, and "Can't Hold Us," featuring Ray Dalton, landed on the list that year.<doc-sep>Cardi B knows how to celebrate! The 25-year-old pregnant hip-hop star took to Instagram on Monday night to ring in a milestone accomplishment. Cardi became the first female rapper to land two No. 1 singles atop the Billboard Hot 100 list, thanks to her track, “I Like It.” She scored her first no. 1 with 2017’s “Bodak Yellow.” In honor of the special occasion, Cardi posted a video to Instagram with the caption, “Number 1 Again.” In the clip, Cardi is walking around a bedroom, shouting, “Number one! I’m number one, I’m number one,” while leaning against the bed and twerking it out – baby bump and all! This isn’t the first time Cardi has twerked during her pregnancy. In April, she showed off her moves during her Coachella performance. Shortly thereafter, she announced on Instagram that she was taking a break from performing ahead of the arrive of her first child. “Shortie keep growing. I be looking like I be moving and everything, but in reality, a b**ch barely can breathe!” she said at the time. “I want to thank y’all for understanding. I’ll be back for the Bruno Mars tour and everything.” Cardi’s no. 1’s aren’t the only thing she has to celebrate. In addition to her baby girl on the way, she also recently announced that she and Migos rapper, Offset, had secretly tied the knot last September. "There are so many moments that I share with the world and there are moments that I want to keep for myself!" Cardi tweeted. "Getting married was one of those moments! Our relationship was so new breaking up and making up and we had a lot of growing up to do but we was so in love we didn't want to lose each other, was one morning in September we woke up and decided to get married. We found someone to marry us. And she did, just the two of us and my cousin. I said i do, with no dress no make up and no ring!"

Cardi B fans collectively said “I Like It” to the rapper’s new song with Bad Bunny and J Balvin, propelling this hip-hop star to a new record. She is now the first female rapper to land two No. 1 hits on the Billboard Hot 100 chart between “I Like It” and “Bodack Yellow (Money Moves).” Cardi B has been celebrating on social media since the news dropped. “I’m so happy, I’m so excited,” she says in a video on Instagram that gets a tad NSFW towards the end. “I can not believe that ‘I Like It’ is No. 1.” The rapper mentions how she “slept on this record because two verses on this song… is in Spanish and I figured not all my fans know Spanish, but it’s like, this is the song! Y’all made it happen!” “I Like It” is a revamp of Pete Rodriguez’s “I Like It Like That.” The 1967 song was also remixed in 2015 by The Blackout Allstars as “I Like It (Like That).” The latest chart-topper for Cardi B marks another achievement for the rapper behind Invasion of Privacy. According to Billboard, she’s the first artist to land two Hot 100 No. 1 songs from a debut album since the days of Macklemore and Ryan Lewis’ The Heist. Meanwhile, Bad Bunny and Balvin are celebrating their first song to hit No. 1. It’s definitely been the summer of Cardi B. In addition to “I Like It,” she’s popped in for music videos with Maroon 5 (“Girls Like You“) and Jennifer Lopez (“Dinero“). Now, as she says in another Instagram video, she’s just waiting on her baby girl.
