Cardi B played “Money” at the Grammys, won Best Rap Album (videos)

One of the most anticipated 2019 Grammys performers, Cardi B took to the stage to do her post-Invasion of Privacy single "Money." The performance of the piano-fueled song started with the camera focused just on the pianist, and then the militant beat kicked in and Cardi and her dancers took over with a performance as over-the-top as you'd expect, including a part where Cardi writhed on top of the grand piano.

Offset liked it:

Invasion of Privacy won Best Rap Album. Cardi was also nominated for Album of the Year, Record of the Year, Best Rap Performance, and Best Pop Duo/Group Performance (for her Maroon 5 collab "Girls Like You") but lost in those categories. She also made Grammy history, becoming the first female solo artist to win Best Rap Album in Grammy history (Lauryn Hill won in 1997 as a member of the Fugees). Watch her Best Rap Album acceptance speech below.

UPDATE: Offset used tonight as an opportunity to announce that his debut solo album will be out in two weeks. The announcement video features -- among other things -- footage of Cardi B giving birth.
