With "Bodak Yellow," Cardi B officially has the No. 1 song in the country. She dethroned Taylor Swift's single "Look What You Made Me Do," which has been No. 1 for three weeks.

Cardi is the first solo female rapper to reach number one since 1998, and just the second female rapper in history to top the Billboard charts.
The rapper herself was obviously hyped, hosting a special celebration when the news was announced — and giving a speech in a way that only Cardi could.

But the win was emotionally significant for a lot of other people.
Cardi B having the #1 record in the country is the inspiration I needed for the week.
It also made fans reflect on and respect Cardi's come-up. Belcalis Almanzar (Cardi's real name) was once a reality TV star from Love & Hip Hop, but now her reality is making hip-hop history.
Cardi B's story is very inspiring.
Cardi B. really went from the strip club to making hip-hop history. If you can’t respect that, you lost in the sauce.

The win was particularly significant for black and Latinx communities.
Cardi B going #1 feels like a win for all of us. We did that. I’m singing Bodak Yellow to every Black person I see.
