This is the rawest reaction of the year so far.
Yesterday (May 16), BET released the nominations for the BET Awards. Cardi B is nominated for Best Female Hip-Hop Artist as well as Best New Artist.
She reacted to the award by going on Instagram and thanking all of her fans.

On another note, another artist is feeling snubbed. Dreezy had a hit single with “Body” featuring Jeremih. Yet she wasn’t even mentioned on the Best Female Hip-Hop Artist catagory.
Lol this industry funny.
