Cardi B reveals million-dollar show fees and lavish monthly costs
Cardi B has opened up about how she makes money and how much money she spends every month.
She spent a long time walking through X Spaces on Wednesday (November 27), talking about how her upbringing around drug dealers who made their money but didn’t keep it led her to view money as it is: a means of exchange. They always got broke fast after all. Because of that financial mismanagement, however, instilled things like “hustler mentality” into Cardi’s early years, which are partly towards her achievements.
“I receive a big check every four months from the songs I’ve released,” she said. “Everyone involved in the album earns something, so I still earn very much from my music.”
Cardi went on to say that music is her number-one source of income, saying, “I earn $1.5 million for shows in America, but for bigger venues, it’s $2 million. For international performances, I charge $2.5 million. And if someone pays me to promote something, I’m taking that money, too.”
