Cardi B Becomes First woman to win Best Rap Album | 2019 GRAMMYs

Tearful Cardi B made history at Sunday night’s Grammy Awards becoming the first solo woman to win in the Best Rap Album Category.

She won the first GRAMMY of her career for her debut “Invasion of Privacy.

During her speech, the rapper, taking the stage with Offset, teared up while talking about her pregnancy and daughter, who was born this past July.

“I want to thank my daughter,” she said. “I’m not just saying thank you because she’s my daughter. It’s because, you know, when I found out I was pregnant, my album was not complete, like three songs that I was for sure having.

And then you know, you know how it was, we was like, we have to get this album done so I could still do videos while I’m still not showing. And it was very long nights.”

While Cardi’s the first woman to win the award for a solo act, Lauryn Hill did win best rap album as part of hip-hop group Fugees (also made up of Wyclef Jean and Pras Michel) in 1997.
