Review: Cardi B re-teamed with Migos for her new single, “Drip.”
In both the video and in the lyrics, these two tag team on boasting about jewelry, wealth and their hip-hop status over a booming beat.
Throughout the video and song, the duo toss out pop culture references, often in triplet rhythmic patterns, between lengthy refrains of “Diamonds on my wrist, they drippin.'” Cardi B nods to Charlotte Hornets guard Kemba Walker and the world’s leading dating app: “Quick to drop a ni#ga like Kemba/ Lookin’ right a right swipe on Tinder,” she rhymes. In his money-minded verse, Offset compares himself to a classic horror film antagonist: “When I got a mil’, I got excited/ For the cash I’m a turn to Michael Meyers.”
Solid video. Solid song. Solid entertainment.
