Cardi B isn't stopping there, as she has added another huge achievement to her list.

The rapper's true name is Belcalis Almanzar Cephus, and her 2018 album, "Invasion of Privacy," helped her reach yet another huge milestone.

According to reports, her record debuted at number 167 on the most recent Billboard 200. The first album of the "WAP" hitmaker has lasted four years, or 208 weeks, in the charts.

"Invasion of Privacy" is Cardi B's first album, and it is also the first album by a female rapper to spend that much time on the Billboard 200.

It was released in April of 2018 and debuted at the top of the charts with 255,000 first-week copies.

Last month, the Bronx native made history by being the first album to have all of its songs certified Platinum.

"Invasion of Privacy" is also the first female rapper's album to feature two Hot 100 top hits and two Diamond-certified singles.

In 2021, "Bodak Yellow" was certified diamond, and her other single, "I Like It," with Bad Bunny and J Balvin, sold 10 million units. Both of these songs have amassed over a billion views on YouTube.

Cardi B also worked with Maroon 5 on "Girls Like You," which earned her a Diamond Award.

"Invasion of Privacy" also set a Spotify record for the most-streamed female rap album in history.

Cardi B Quits Social Media

In other Cardi B news, her social media postings have gained her numerous followers, including "You" star Penn Badgley.

Those expecting her to provide the customary entertainment might be disappointed since, over the weekend, the rapper disabled her social media profiles, which have a combined 130 million followers, following a disagreement with her fans about her absence from the 64th Annual Grammy Awards.

Fans were irritated that their favorite celebrity did not attend "music's greatest night," where she was also nominated for Best Rap Performance.

However, she questioned everyone in a tweet, saying, "Where and when did I ever give hints? Like are you ok ? I'm not going to a award if I don't got a new song to perform Or my album ain't out ...Next year."

She also revealed that she has been posting on her Instagram Stories that she's been at her home in New York, and later called her fans dumb after they brought into the spat her 3-year-old daughter Kulture and six-month-old son.
