In Cardi B and Meg Thee Stallion's “Bongos” and Flyana Boss' “You Wish,' Black women hip-hop artists share pleasure, joy and sisterhood.
Both women were driven out of the culture due to violence, and this legacy is still a hallmark of too many songs and videos in mainstream rap music. This is the irony of celebrating hip-hop’s milestone year: It represents the beats and the voices of pleasure and joy, just as much as it captures so much pain.
That is what makes the videos for “Bongos” and “You Wish” so much fun to watch. The artists are creating legible spaces for pleasure, joy and sisterhood. Cardi B often proudly owns her identity as a married wife and mother, as shown in her shared behind-the-scenes photos of her “” partner Meg Thee Stallion interacting with her children; however, her sexualized performances push back against notions that she has been “redeemed” for respectability. She refuses to erase her past as an exotic dancer and eagerly partakes in sexually fluid roles with Meg Thee Stallion when their bodies intertwine in the video.
