A few days before her debut studio album, Invasion of Privacy, drops, Cardi B has released a music video for her hit single "Bartier Cardi."

The track, a collaboration with 21 Savage, already entered and peaked at the 14th spot of the Billboard's 100 earlier this month.

Retro Glamour

In the music video, the iHeartRadio Music Awards 2018 Best New Artist transforms into a vintage sex icon. The 25-year-old appears onscreen in a matching red lingerie she accessorized with a giant red fur scarf and sparkling diamond jewelry. In the next scene, the rapper seduces as a pin-up girl in green fur, a shape-hugging white corset, and a perfect updo. For the club scene, Cardi changes into a high-fashion white dress with fur trimmings, a pair of white elbow-length gloves, and sharp cat-eye white sunglasses.

Rapper 21 Savage also appears briefly and raps while two women drag him into a chair and strap him in front of a wall of television screens.

Cardi B's fiancé, Offset of Migos, makes a cameo in the car scene. She and her rumored baby-daddy make out on the back seat of their moving luxury vehicle. Fans who are hoping for a confirmation that the rap newcomer is pregnant will probably have to wait longer because there is no baby bump to be seen in "Bartier Cardi."

The chart-topping rapper first teased the music video, which seems to be inspired by Madonna's "Material Girl," on Instagram last weekend. She gave fans a sneak peek into her all-red outfit, announcing that "Bartier Cardi" will be released on VH1 this week.

Cardi B also recently released the track "Be Careful," a song that fans assume is dedicated to her fiancé who was previously found to have cheated on her with an unknown woman.

Packed Schedule

After she released Invasion of Privacy this week, Cardi B will be heading on a North American trek with Bruno Mars as part of his 24K Magic World Tour. The Grammy-winning singer announced the last leg of his series of concerts last February following their performance of "Finesse" at the 2018 Grammy Awards.

In addition, Cardi B will also perform at Coachella this summer and appear on Saturday Night Live as a musical guest on the episode that will be hosted by Black Panther star Chadwick Boseman.

Invasion of Privacy will be released on Friday, April 6. Watch the NSFW music video for "Bartier Cardi" below.
