Cardi B Bares All In New ‘Press’ Video
In her new video for her single, “Press,” Cardi B is completely stripped down.
A close-up shot of Cardi B kissing another woman opens up the video. The next scene alludes to Cardi having a threesome with the woman and a man. Afterward, the “Money” rapper lights up a cigarette while standing in all white lingerie before cocking a gun.
A gunshot goes off, and the next scene is of a screaming crowd filled with supporters of the rapper, some of whom held signs that read, “innocent until proven guilty.”
Cardi B then gets dragged into an interrogation room, and the video begins to flip back and forth between Cardi in the interrogation room and her walking completely naked with blood all over her body.
Dancers who are also completely naked eventually join Cardi in the street for a militant dance routine before the famed rapper appears in court.
On Wednesday, Cardi B took to Instagram to thank everyone who was responsible for helping the Bronx rapper bring the video to life.
“I was so specific with this video I wanted to co-direct with someone who can understand my vision and don’t say it’s NOT POSSIBLE for an answer,” Cardi B wrote in her caption.
“Thanks, glam for taking good directions and trusting me on glam and working together to make the looks possible,” Cardi explained. “I wanted these white eyebrow, white hair look so bad ! Ya work together and made it happen just how I wanted it.”
