So apparently CupcakKe is the 1st Black Female Indie Rapper to hit #1 on iTunes in all genres.

This is huge for her! She’s been around for a few years now. Has anyone else heard the song? Homegirl has barz!

She totally deserves this and more. Have a feeling this could also be her first BB entry too. Hope that Cupcakke makes 2020 her bitch cause she’s been lurking under the radar for a while now…

“Discounts” goes hard! Cupcakke is an underrated lyricist. I love her delivery and sense of humor.

I would die if this song becomes a sleeper hit!

Cupcakke has made it clear since day 1 that she doesn’t want to sign to a label and wants to stay independent.

I love the song, but does anyone have any context how to this one popped off so quickly commercially?

She has been getting her bags chile, I’ve seen her twice at Austin Pride Fest. Plus she gives back to her fans and community too, she’s good!

The Barbz latched onto the Cardi B line as a “diss”. And supported the song on iTunes to spite her.

However, Cupcakke clarified on Instagram Live that it wasn’t intended to slight Cardi. She has used pop culture references in her lyrics since day 1.

Nicki Minaj fans are just dumb.
