Cardi B rocks a TINY pink hotpants while shopping in New York (2024)

She's known for her lavish lifestyle and love of designer goods.

And Cardi B treated herself to some retail therapy on Friday, as she headed to Gucci's Fifth Avenue store in New York.

Walking down Millionaire's Row, the singer, 29, turned heads as she rocked a pink hot pants andpurple crop top while bringing attention to her impressive abs.

The former stripper looked in a playful mood as she pulled several funny faces, while showing off some of her stage moves.

Stepping out in a pair of fluffy double strap animal print slippers, the hitmaker appeared to form a little twerk as she strolled down the street,

Looking as glam as ever, Cardi rocked picture-perfect makeup, with her tresses styled sleek and straight with a centre parting.

The outing comes after theNew York city rapper released her first solo single in over a year two days ago.

The pulsating and provocative Hot S*** — featuring Kanye West and Lil Durk — officially dropped just after midnight on Friday.

This is the Cardi's first new song since Up debuted at number two on the Billboard Hot 100 chart in February 2021. It would eventually hit the number one spot on the chart after her riveting performance at the 63rd Grammy Awards five weeks later.

In full-on Cardi tradition, the hip hop superstar hit hard on the lyrical front, to match the driving force of the song.

Lead by a constant bass drum, the Bodak Yellow star jumped right in for verse one with hard-hitting raps.

'Nah, this that Hot S*** - Jimmy Snuka off the top rope - Superfly s*** (Fly) - Might get in the tub - with all my ice on some Pac s*** (Hot) - Either way you slice it bottom Line, I'm the top b****,' she began.

Continuing on with her self congratulatory tone, she added:'New Chanel, I rock It - twist and it ain't even out yet - All this jewelry at the grocery Store - I'm obnoxious.'

She also highlighted her accumulating wealth by spitting out lines like, 'Bought a home and closing on another - I know I'm blessed - Everybody wanna be gang - Ain't no spots left - Bad b**ch contest -Thеre wouldn't be a contest.'

The song also marks the second time Ye has collaborated with Lil Durk on a song. The Chicago natives previously worked together on the song Jonah that made it on to West's studio album, Dona (2020).

Leading up to the release, Cardi (born Belcalis Almánzar) had been in promo mode, teasing a 15 second snippet fro. the track while sipping champagne on a New York City rooftop dressed only in aDisco Daddy Studio bathrobe and towel.

And 15 seconds was all the Bronx, New York native needed to start creating TikTok dance/lip-sync videos as she remarked: 'It's starting already!
