Cardi B has been a regular at every awards ceremony in the past few months, and that’s not going to change in 2019. The “Bodak Yellow” singer topped the list of 2019 iHeartRadio Music Awards contenders with a total of 13 nods!
Cardi already received two iHeartRadio Awards last year, and she’s coming back to prove the world what she’s got. Famous rapper scored majority of her nominations thanks to collaborating with other artists throughout 2018. That’s part of the reason why she’ll be her own biggest competition, especially in best collaboration category.
Cardi B isn’t the only artist who did great in the past few months. Drake also had the best year ever, and his score at the list of iHeartRadio Awards contenders reflects that. He received a total of eight nominations, and Post Malone was right behind him with five.
iHeartRadio Music Awards will be held on March 14 at the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles.
