Chun-Li I like, the vocal is good and I like the weird horn in the production.
Barbie Tingz I don't like as much though |

Agree with Jake, Jack, Lew and Liam...I’m not loving either song to be honest. I really was excited and I’m going to try to get into them but I don’t even have a slight urge to listen to them. I’ve been loving the Cardi album today and pretty much all the tracks on there are more instant.

I think she wants to appeal to a more Drake-like audience rather than having a similar fanbase to the pop girls. It annoys me that everyone denounces Cardi for being apparently homophobic when Nicki blocked fans asking her to post a message about Orlando and she’s faced nowhere near the same backlash as say Jessie J for admitting she’s not bisexual when she said she was.

You can tell she absolute hates her pop music, I know she's not a massive fan of 'Starships'. Yeah I do get that impression so I get why she's not doing pop necessarily, and it'd be selfish to want her to do something she hated, but I just don't really want... whatever this is from her. In fact my favourite song by her is probably Beez In The Trap, she can do not being pop without it being quite so pandering to the sassy gays (Lew saying that is the best way to sum it up I've seen so I'll just repeat that point ). This doesn't feel to me like the big comeback "look I'm back" to me, it's just like "a reminder I exist". |

This is basically a more polished Itty Bitty Piggy - which is good tbf! But it’s not really a smash and I feel she could’ve gone a bit harder on production. It’s decent but I’m not sure it will be one of her classics!
I love the production on Chun-Li, I think it’s probably the better of the two! |

I hear the Remy Ma shade towards the beginning of the song (which is to be expected given there past) but I don’t hear any Cardi shade at all in either song ? People keep trying to put them against each other when it’s possible to like both of them and for both of them to succeed and do well at the same time . There is some, such as: How many a' them coulda did it with finnesse? Now everybody like, "She really is the best." You play checkers, couldn't beat me playin' chess Now I'm about to turn around and beat my chest |

When you compare it to the big comeback of featuring on Flawless Remix and then Anaconda it’s pretty minimal for a comeback! |

These are both so disappointing, I was so ready for a huge comeback.
I thought she’d be past the whole ‘drag another female rapper’ thing but apparently not. Completely different, but the whole of Invasion of Privacy is better than these two. |

Okay with distance I'm not underwhelmed by this but it's not as good as the other one.
Her flow still runs rings around Cardi though. There's so much I could level at her but that would be going off topic. Suffice it to say relying on cheap samples, ghostwriters/people writing for you and your boyfriend to make bops isn't exactly making waves as a female rapper~ |

Is she bitter that Cardi is the biggest female rapper right now?

Both songs are terrible lmao. I'm just listening to the hip hop songs on The Pink Print and wondering what the hell happened? Not her playing the victim at Cardi when she's never said anything about her

Are you here to discuss Nicki or are you here to start yet another thread argument? Keep it on topic please. Currently at #10 on iTunes UK! No... Nicki referred to Cardi in the singles apparently so I’m discussing it? Nicki is far bigger, 10 years strong in the game! Nicki is bigger overall for sure, but I said that Cardi is the biggest female rapper right now which is obvious! |

The only place Cardi is bigger is in the belly region :/

Theres about 40 seconds in Barbie Tingz that is really great. Chun Li is for me though.
Didn't she say these were more of the 'poppier rap songs' in the interview or something to that effect? The run up to her coming into the studio where they played 'Moment for Life' made me realise that really is probably her best song. |
