Cardi B’s daughter is a budding artist.
Cardi, 32, took to her Instagram Stories on Sunday, March 23, to share a video of her expensive Hermés Kelly handbag in golden crocodile leather. Her daughter Kulture, 6, had taken a black pen and drawn a single heart on the purse.
“Literally spent $60,000 on this purse,” the rapper despaired in the clip, which has since been posted on YouTube. Zooming in on the heart, she continued, “Look what my daughter did to my purse. Look what my daughter did to my purse.”
(No worries. If Cardi wants to, she can bring the bag to a Hermés store for repairs.)
Cardi and ex Offset welcomed Kulture in July 2018, their son, Wave, in September 2021 and a third child in September 2024.
In December 2024, the Grammy winner squashed criticism that she was accepting brand deals to pay the bills.
“People say that I’m surviving off Shein deals and brand deals — wait, hold on,” she clarified in a voice recording posted via X. “I want to let y’all know I could wake up tomorrow and sign a contract and I’d have half of $65 million — or half of $70 million — in my bank.”
Cardi said at the time that she spent “about $3 million in a month,” and noted that 2024 was her “off year” in terms of lucrative music deals. She added that she was waiting until her next album release to sign a tour deal — which would net a bigger payout.
“You can’t act like you’re hungry, especially when you’re not,” she said.
Nearly seven years have passed since Cardi B released her hit album Invasion of Privacy, and her fans are hoping for a follow-up.
“I just be feeling like I don’t be liking anything. I feel like I got so many songs. I just don’t like nothing. Like, nothing is good enough. I got so much f—ing money saved up, I be like, ‘Yeah, whatever the f—,’” she said via an Instagram Live in December 2022. “Making music to me has become like a job that gives me anxiety because everybody just critiques everything that I do.”
During the same Instagram Live, Cardi B addressed how becoming a mother had affected her decision to hold off on releasing a second album.
“I feel like I have gotten too comfortable because, you know — I’m just a mom, and I do have anxiety,” she said. “I’ve been having a lot of anxiety because I know right after I drop my album, I have to go out on tour, and I have bad separation anxiety from my kids.”
