Cardi B (the stage name of Belcalis Marlenis Almánzar Cephus) first gained fame on Vine and Instagram when several of her videos went viral. In 2015, she was cast in the sixth season of the hit VH1 reality series Love & Hip Hop: New York.

The Bronx native quickly won fans over with her vibrant personality, tick accent, and snappy one-liners. Two seasons and two mixtapes later, Cardi B announced her departure from the show to focus on her music career.

In February 2017, just two months after her exit from Love & Hip Hop, Cardi B signed with Atlantic Records at just 25 years. Her debut single, “Bodak Yellow” was released in June that year. The song was an instant success, catapulting Cardi B to worldwide fame.

Infatuated with the rapper’s unapologetic style, rapid flow, and thick New York-Dominican accent, listeners quickly turned into fans. After topping the Billboard 100 chart for three weeks in a row, Cardi B became the second rapper to reach number one as a solo artist. The music video for “Bodak Yellow” was just as big of a hit. When it dropped on YouTube, it became the fastest solo female rap song to reach 1 billion views on the platform.

Cardi B’s first studio album, Invasion of Privacy, dropped in 2018 to universal acclaim. The 13-song tracklist included collabs with Migos, Chance the Rapper, Bad Bunny, J Balvin, Kehlani, 21 Savage, YG, and SZA. The album entered the U.S. charts at number one and became Apple Music’s most-streamed album for a female artist in a single week. By refusing to soften herself as a new female artist, Cardi B redefined what it meant to break through in the industry.

The album went on to produce five singles, including “I Like It,” which also reached number one on the charts. Both Rolling Stone and Time magazine named Invasion of Privacy the best album of 2018. This phenomenal success earned Cardi B the titles of “Reigning Queen of Hip Hop” and “Queen of Rap” by multiple music publications.

Cardi B’s rapid rise to success reached a climax during a 2018 appearance on Saturday Night Live. The rapper had previously revealed to fans that she had wed her fiancé, Offset, in a secret ceremony the year before. While performing “Be Careful” live on the show, Cardi B revealed she was pregnant with their first child. The announcement broke the internet. Her baby daughter Kulture has since become an icon in her own right. She has captured the hearts of 3 million+ Instagram followers by featuring in several of her mom’s social media posts.

After welcoming her baby into the world, Cardi B’s career showed no signs of slowing down. At the end of 2018, she made history as the first female rapper to appear on the cover of Vogue. In early 2019, she won her first Grammy Award for Best Rap Album. For only the second time in 25 years, Thierry Mugler opened its archives to dress her for the event. Cardi B’s invite to the 2019 Met Gala confirmed her status as a budding fashion icon, and the very next year, she was recruited by Balenciaga to be the face of their winter campaign.

Cardi B’s star has only continued to rise. She made her film debut in the star-studded 2019 hit Hustlers, and she returned to TV as a judge on the Netflix competition series Rhythm + Flow. She has since also joined the Fast & Furious franchise, starring in F9 and the upcoming Fast X.

Toward the end of 2020, Cardi B teamed up with Megan Thee Stallion on the single, “WAP.” The song debuted at the top of the Billboard Hot 100 chart, making it Cardi B’s fourth number-one single. On YouTube, the song broke the record for the biggest debut for an all-female collaboration. Praised for its sex-positivity, the song also received critical acclaim.

In 2021, Cardi B welcomed her second child, a son named Wave. The same year, “Bodak Yellow,” was certified Diamond by the RIAA, cementing her icon status.

Today, Cardi B is the highest-certified female rapper of all time. Her second studio album is currently in the works.

Live reviews

Syracuse 9/7/2019

Overall a complete disappointment, the first opener had no sound support, the second was probably the most engaging and professional.

We waited from 9 PM until 10 PM for Cardi B. with nothing going on. People were more amped up when they played Lizzo as compared to any moment during the entire concert.

Cardi cam out had no clue where she was. You know, its NY so we all must be from one of the 5 boroughs or LI. Because no there is no other part of NY that exists. Almost walked into two pyrotechnics, literally though she was going to catch on fire.

sang 45-second snippets of songs in between walking around (NOT DANCING AROUND) and speaking incoherently and twerking or otherwise just throwing her leg up on a bar to show the 95% woman audience her crotch.

I spent more time staring at her crotch than listening to her do anything. She needs rehab and a new manager.

Report as inappropriate

Started at 10pm she showed up at 3:30am and performed 2 songs all of 15mins. It wasn't an enjoyable experience in heels for 5.5 hours just to hear 3 Dj's play the same songs all night. $100 ticket at the door for a friend last minute was not even worth it. It should've been labeled a Club appearance. Not a show. Wack. Then she had so many people on the stage you could barely see her. Even though I was early to secure a front close picture, I waited for an obstructed view! Awful.

I'm so glad I went this was my second time I just seen her in May.. I think she was real dope her performance was off the chain hands down I'll go see her anytime I can. She had me laughing when she said I ain't no Beyonce out this piece I can't jump rap and dance all at the same time take it or leave it AAAAAAAHHHHHHHH Love you Cardi CT LOVE YOU

Waited there for HOURS after she was supposed to have been there and she finally showed up with some lame excuse about a fight with her boyfriend. DJ sucked before, was so tempted to leave. She played about 3 songs and left. What a bitch, clearly doesn't care about her fans and that we paid money.

Come To Buffalo Please. Syracuse show was great. Juat wish she sang money the wholw way through her illest song. Also wish she would have apologised for the 5month wait may to sept but aye. Like i said money is the hottest song and buffalo crowd would be WILD for you Cardi. Love you belcalis

Excellent. Saw her in LA last year and she was so lively and full of energy.Twerking and full choreo soooo fun, She was so natural on stage and captivated me the whole show - She has so many big hits too the crowd sang word for word lol. Can't wait for a tour!!! I love Bartier Cardi live.

VERY DISAPPOINTED

MONEY WASTED

LAST MINUTE CANCELLED SHOW

NO RESCHEDULED DATE

NO PROMOTION FOR CANCELLING

Really a big let down to her genuine fans especially when WE ARE DISABLED AND HAVE TO MAKE SURE THAT THE ACCOMMODATIONS FOR US CAN BE WHEELCHAIR ACCESSIBLE

My daughters dream is to see you!!!! She had scoliosis surgery in June so I was not able to take her to San Antonio to see you. We live way down south of Texas . Hope you come to Houston or Dallas Texas soon so I can take her to see you. She says your the best!

Saw her @Houston Livestock and Rodeo! Hands down the best Concert to date!! The crowd went crazy for Our Cardi B , she set a new attendance record 75,580 Houston fans! She looks like a hot ass cowgirl!!!!

Horrible. Waited outside for an hour and a half then inside for 3 hours and 40 minutes. Doors opened at 9pm, she didn’t go on stage until 1:40am. And then only performed 3 songs!!! Everyone was livid.

Singer Diljit Dosanjh’s India tour sells out within minutes leaving fans crushed

Tickets for actor and musician Diljit Dosanjh ’s “Dil-luminati” India tour sold out within minutes of going on sale, leaving many fans disappointed.

A presale started on Tuesday and tickets for the concert in capital Delhi sold out in just under two minutes.

General tickets opened for purchase on Thursday and sold out within minutes, with fans showing the same level of enthusiasm as seen for Taylor Swift’s Eras tour .

“We have already sold 150,000 tickets. While there is enormous demand, due to the rules, regulations, and venue capacities, we are expecting around 200,000 people across 10 venues,” tour organiser Janamjai Sehgal from Saregama India told NDTV .

“This level of response has never happened in India before, not even for international artists. On the first day of the presale, 8,000-10,000 transactions were made in a single minute. We sold 100,000 tickets within 15 minutes,” Sehgal said.

Fans who managed to get the tickets celebrated on social media and those who didn’t were trying desperately to find resellers even though they were asking for jacked up prices.

“Bajaj Finance IPO, if one lot is allotted of ₹14,900 (£135), could potentially become ₹28,757 (£260), assuming a 93 per cent GMP. Diljit Dosanjh concert tickets which people bought for ₹5,999 (£54) are being resold for ₹21,000 (£190), that’s a growth of 250.04 per cent! Next time, you know where to invest,” one fan joked on X.

Another fan posted screenshots of multiple tickets to reveal that he spent Rs 87,640 (£794) on them.

Several fans who weren’t able to get the tickets complained about the booking process, because patrons had to zoom in to the seats to confirm, which they said wasted time.

The “Dil-luminati” tour is set to kick off on 26 October in Delhi. Shows are also lined up in Chandigarh, Guwahati, Pune, Indore, Bengaluru, Kolkata, Lucknow, Hyderabad, and Ahmedabad.

Dosanjh has been on a world tour since the early 2024, performing sold-out shows across North America, Australia and New Zealand. And he has shows lined up in Paris, London, Glasgow, and Amsterdam through September and October.

The singer has seen his global popularity surge since a performance at Coachella in 2023 . His collaborations with international stars like NLE Choppa, Sia, and Saweetie have added to his appeal, and he’s often credited with putting Punjabi music on the map.

Earlier this year, he joined Ed Sheeran on stage in Mumbai to perform his hit track “Lover” . Dosanjh has also worked on a Punjabi-Spanish crossover track “Palpita” with Colombian singer Camilo.

He made his first appearance on The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon and performed fan favourites “GOAT” and “Born To Shine”.

The Gallagher brothers are reuniting for an Oasis tour 15 years after breaking up

Ayana Archie

Noel Gallagher, formerly of the band Oasis, performs in concert with Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds at the BB&T Pavilion on Aug. 8, 2019, in Camden, N.J. Leon Neal/Getty Images hide caption

Nearly 15 years to the day they broke up, the Gallagher brothers announced they are reuniting their band Oasis for a series of concerts next year in the United Kingdom and Ireland.

“The guns have fallen silent," Oasis posted on its website, a reference to earlier tensions between brothers Liam and Noel Gallagher. "The stars have aligned. The great wait is over. Come see. It will not be televised.”

The Gallagher brothers are reviving Oasis. Here's a look at their decades-long feud

The Gallaghers said they will play 14 dates in July and August in the U.K. and Ireland next year and will venture to other continents later in the year.

Tickets will go on sale this Saturday at 9 a.m. British time, and 8 a.m. Irish Standard Time, the band said.

Oasis broke up on Aug. 28, 2009, though the Gallagher brothers had a tumultuous relationship for decades. Their relationship has been marred by physical and legal fights, verbal altercations and their frequent and sudden resignations from the band.

"Major League Baseball is incredibly excited for this extensive slate of international games in 2024," Commissioner Rob Manfred said. "Our recent efforts have produced strong enthusiasm around the globe, and we look forward to building on that foundation with returns to Mexico City and London, while also opening the season in Korea for the first time. In addition, we can’t wait to celebrate the tradition of the sport in the Dominican Republic with our visit to Santo Domingo next March. We are thrilled that our fans across four different countries outside the United States and Canada will have the opportunity to see the game’s stars."

The MLB World Tour schedule for next year includes the return of games to the United Kingdom and Mexico for a second consecutive season, after the 2023 London Series between the Cubs and Cardinals and Mexico City Series between the Giants and Padres, in addition to new stops in Korea and the Dominican Republic.

“Players have a deep interest in growing baseball around the world. No matter where they come from, players are linked by a passion for our game that transcends different languages, cultures, and nationalities,” said Tony Clark, the executive director of the MLB Players Association. “The series announced today will allow fans around the globe to gain a first-hand appreciation for the unmatched skill and infectious enthusiasm players display every time they go to work. We are excited to expand our international presence in new communities and celebrate the game we all love.”

Here's a look at each of the four international series in 2024.

Seoul Series

The Dodgers and Padres will open up the 2024 season with two games in Korea from March 20-21.  

The Seoul Series will mark the ninth time that the MLB season has opened outside the 50 U.S. states and Canada, and the first time in five years. Previous international openers include:

• 1999 -- Monterrey, Mexico (Rockies vs. Padres) • 2000 -- Tokyo, Japan (Mets vs. Cubs) • 2001 -- San Juan, Puerto Rico (Rangers vs. Blue Jays) • 2004 -- Tokyo, Japan (Rays vs. Yankees) • 2008 -- Tokyo, Japan (Red Sox vs. A's) • 2012 -- Tokyo, Japan (A's vs. Mariners) • 2014 -- Sydney, Australia (Dodgers vs. D-backs) • 2019 -- Tokyo, Japan (A's vs. Mariners)

It will be the Dodgers' first international games since they played the Padres in Mexico in 2018, and their second Opening Day abroad after the 2014 season opener in Australia.

"The Dodgers have a long and proud history of helping to grow the game abroad, highlighted by our trips to Mexico, China and Australia. It's very exciting to add Korea to the list," Dodgers president Stan Kasten said. "I know our players are thrilled to put their talents on display in a country so rich with baseball tradition and talent, including former Dodgers Chan Ho Park, Hee-Seop Choi and Hyun Jin Ryu."

The Padres will be playing internationally for a second straight season, but in a new country, going from the 2023 Mexico City Series to the 2024 Seoul Series. Like the Dodgers, they've also played abroad on Opening Day before, in the inaugural international season opener back in 1999. 

"Korea is a great baseball country with a rich tradition, passionate fans, and talented players, including current Padre and San Diego fan favorite Ha-Seong Kim," Padres CEO Erik Greupner said. "The Padres are proud to serve alongside the Dodgers as global ambassadors for the game of baseball with our historic 2024 Korea Series."

Mexico City Series

The second Mexico City Series will feature the Astros and Rockies for a pair of games on April 27 and 28, almost exactly a year after this season's inaugural Mexico City Series.

Both Houston and Colorado last played internationally in Mexico, but in Monterrey, not Mexico City. The Astros played two regular-season games against the Angels there in 2019, and the Rockies played an exhibition series against the D-backs that same year.  

The Astros have played exhibition games in Mexico City before, in 2016 against the Padres and 2004 against the Marlins.

London Series

The London Series returns for its third edition overall, with the Mets and Phillies facing off at London Stadium on June 8 and 9.

The Mets will be playing abroad for the first time since 2010, when they faced the Marlins in Puerto Rico. But they're no stranger to international games, having participated in both MLB's first-ever international regular season games in 1996 in Mexico and MLB's first-ever regular-season games in Japan in 2000.

"Interest in baseball is growing all over the world, and to bring the Mets' 'never-say-die' attitude to sports fans in London is a tremendous honor," Mets owner Steve Cohen said. "Our Queens family is ready to show London a great time with exciting baseball and amazing experiences that create new fans and build the Mets community throughout the United Kingdom." 

The Phillies have never played regular-season games internationally, and have left the U.S. and Canada only once, over 50 years ago, for a pair of exhibition games against the Pirates in San Juan in 1977.

"Major League Baseball has done an excellent job of expanding its footprint internationally, and we are honored to play a role in that effort as part of the 2024 London Series," Phillies managing partner John Middleton said. "This will be a wonderful opportunity to showcase our players' talents and highlight the excitement that comes with a Phillies-Mets matchup for our fans in the UK and for those who have never attended a baseball game."

Dominican Republic Series

In addition to the three international regular-season series planned for in 2024, the Red Sox and Rays will play a Spring Training series in Santo Domingo at Estadio Quisqueya from March 9-10.

"This unique opportunity builds on our long-standing connection to the Dominican Republic and allows us to celebrate the remarkable talents and rich cultural heritage of a country whose passion for the game has distinctly shaped our organization," Red Sox president Sam Kennedy said. "From the players who have passed through our Dominican Republic Academy to those who have helped us win championships, we have been fortunate to witness the profound impact of Dominican players within our game, and we are thrilled to be able to bring Red Sox baseball to such a vibrant baseball community next year."

Exhibition games are also a key part of the MLB World Tour, which includes up to 16 exhibition games being played internationally between 2023 and ‘26, as well as up to 24 regular-season games spanning Asia, Europe and Latin America.
