New York rapper Cardi B admits she has a problem with her chart-topping "WAP" anthem. Despite the song's massive success, the hip-hop superstar has come clean about having an issue with the record's squeaky-clean version.
Cardi B Hates Clean WAP
In a recent interview, Cardi kept it a buck about how she pieced together a radio-friendly “WAP” record. B admitted the word “gushy” alone irked her.
During an appearance on the Kyle and Jackie O Show, Cardi discussed the process of creating the clean radio edit version of her new hit, explaining that she hates it because she had to replace the phrase “wet ass pussy” with “wet and gushy” which she finds disgusting. But she added that if she didn’t say gushy, “I would have had to replace it with ‘bounce that big old booty’ because that’s the only thing that rhymed. It was really hard for me to clean this song up because nobody could convince me to keep gushy because I hate the word gushy.” (Vanity Fair)
