I am a Native New Yorker. I have seen firsthand where your circumstances and decisions can lead you. It's so easy to become a statistic. The fact that she has exceeded expectations and broken records makes me proud. I have been rooting for Cardi B from jump. I just love how being featured on a scripted show she breathed fresh air into a stale medium. Reality Television is an oxymoron. Nothing is REAL about this genre since the First Season of Real World in New York aired over twenty five years ago. Even then they KNEW the camera were rolling.
Maybe her path isn't one that is conventional. I don't know exactly EVERY step she took but she's now making MONEY MOVES! We live in a country where the sitting First Lady....I digress.....Anything you want to do go hard. Put your best foot forward and LEAP. Step out on faith. Devise a plan and take the best route to execute it. You're never too old, too young, too brown, too WHATEVER to achieve your dreams.
And make sure everyone in your boat is rowing and not poking holes while you paddle. The road is long, and the nights are short. The days you put in will sometimes run into each other. You will lose people along the way. That's just less people to hit off when you cash out. You will have to make sacrifices. The work you put in started way before you even knew it was beginning. Some people luck up and get a quick hit. Fifteen minutes of fame can be stretched into an hour. Social media will have you envying an illusion that doesn't exist. But when you see a STAR like Belcalis Almazar you just KNOW like that audience in her high school auditorium knew when she was channeling Lady Gaga years ago. Now they are playfully battling about "who wore it best"-FAVOR ain't FAIR.
