Cardi B Says Beyoncé’s Show Is Beyond Her Style

She emphasizes a party-style show focused on rapping over choreography.

Overview

  • Cardi B said in an Allure interview that Beyoncé’s Cowboy Carter concerts are “way removed” from what she can do on stage.
  • She said choreography feels like math to her and that she lacks rhythm, so she leans on a party vibe and her rapping.
  • She prepared by attending Madonna and Beyoncé shows as research for her 35-date Little Miss Drama tour, which runs into mid-April.
  • She described touring with young children as hard to manage because her daughter is in school, and she defended the run as sold out after starting it about three months after giving birth.
  • Billboard reports Cowboy Carter grossed $407.6 million across 32 shows, framing the scale of production Cardi says she is not aiming to match.
