Cardi B is the winner for the best album at the Sunday's BET Awards.
The Grammy-winning rapper pranced up the stairs to accept her award wearing a lime green dress. She bragged about the success of her multi-hit album "Invasion of Privacy" before she thanked everyone featured on the project.
Cardi B is the leading nominee at the BET Awards with seven, including video of the year, thanks to her hits "Money" and "Please Me," co-starring Bruno Mars.
Cardi B, who won two BET Awards last year, is also competing for viewer's choice award and best female hip-hop artist, where her competition includes Nicki Minaj, Remy Ma, Megan Thee Stallion, Kash Doll and Lizzo.
The BET Awards kicked off on Sunday with a two-song performance from hip-hop couple Cardi B and her husband Offset.
Offset of the hip-hop trio Migos stepped onstage first before being accompanied by his wife on his lap performing the song "Clout." Cardi B took to stage on her lonesome to perform "Press" on Sunday night at the Microsoft Theater in Los Angeles.
