Cardi B is Performing Fiery Hit I Like It for the First Time Since Giving Birth at the 2018 AM
Having a baby isn’t slowing Cardi B down by any means — she’s headed to the AMAs only THREE months after giving birth!
The multi-platinum rapper, singer and songwriter has been added to the star-studded list of performers for the 2018 American Music Awards, as she’ll be bringing her genre-bending, Latin-trap hit “I Like It” to the AMAs stage. Featuring appearances from Bad Bunny and J Balvin, the trio join previously announced performers benny blanco with Halsey and Khalid, Mariah Carey, Post Malone featuring Ty Dolla $ign, and Carrie Underwood.
“I Like It” earned Cardi B her second No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 chart (now totaling three No. 1s) – the most for a female rapper in the chart’s history. The song which also marks the first No. 1 for both Bad Bunny and J Balvin – landed the No. 3 spot on Billboard’s Pop Songs airplay chart, and went on to earn the No. 1 spots on the Dance/Mix Show Airplay, Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs and Rhythmic Airplay charts.
