Cardi B celebrates another milestone in her rap career as her chart-topping song's music video "Bodak Yellow" recently amassed a billion views on YouTube.
The hashtag #BodakYellow1Billion became a trending topic as fans share their sentiments over the significant achievement of the rapper.
Following the significant celebration, many fans allege that Cardi B made history for being the first music video to get a billion views with the lowest budget.
Even though fans can't contain their excitement, other supporters are skeptical about the claims saying the music video didn't look cheap.
"Impossible for this to have cost 15k. That'd barely cover the cameras and studio," one fan wrote.
"Low budget?! Flight to Dubai ain't cheap." Another fan wrote.
"LMAAOOO y'all just be making accomplishments," one fan tweeted.
YouTube has not released an official statement whether Cardi B's recent milestone is a first in the social media platform's history.

Other Music Videos Cost a Lot of Money
Despite 'Bodak Yellow' being Cardi's cheapest production, her other music videos cost her a hefty amount of money.
The budget for the music video of "Money" costs $400,000, "Please Me" costs $900,000, and "WAP" featuring Megan Thee Stallion costs a staggering $1 million to produce.
Cardi B explained that she spends a lot of money on some of her music videos because she doesn't want to look like a "small artist" with a low budget.
