5) WAP

This song dominated 2020 and gave us memes, Tik Tok dances, reels, and gallons of online content.

For the track, Cardi B was joined by Megan Thee Stallion. What is even more exciting is that it also featured an appearance from Kyle Jenner. Despite the track's popularity and critical acclaim, it was met with a lot of hate, primarily for being offensive and for the use of animals in the music video.

Addressing the backlash in an interview, Cardi said:

"I’ve been really surprised by the reaction, honestly. I knew it was gonna have a big impact, I guess, because of me and Megan. But I didn’t know it was going to be so controversial."

She continued:

"I never expected that, you know, conservatives and Republicans were going to be talking about the song. I didn’t think the song was as vulgar as they said it was, you know? Like, I’m so used to it. I’m such a freak that I didn’t think it would be a big deal."

Cardi B and Megan performed the song at the 63rd Annual Grammy Awards. As of March 2022, the song was certified 7× Platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America.
