Music Video: Cardi B & Megan Thee Stallion – “Bongos”
What’s better than one “it” girl? Two.
Three years after the chart-topping “WAP,” Cardi B & Megan Thee Stallion are back at it with “Bongos.” And this time, Meg is credited the right way — as a co-lead.
“Bongos” doesn’t quite jump at you right away, but as the reggaeton-ish beat gets thicker, it starts to make sense. Also, Bardi and Meg are talking cash shit from start to finish, so even as you warm up to the beat, you’ll be entertained by their bars.
If you’re not impressed by the beat nor lyrics of “Bongos,” you will at least be impressed by the video. It is flush with colors, and if not for the bouncing asses, you might think it was a Fanta commercial (and I say that with love). Also, the general consensus is that one of the dance scenes looks similar to a scene in Beyoncé’s “Baby Boy” video.
The video has been watched more than 1.5 million times in the 12 hours since its release, so a top-five debut on next week’s Billboard Hot 100 is almost a guarantee. Press play.
