Cardi B is a mom two times over, and she’s share some advice with her fellow reality star and artist Chrisean Rock as she ventures into motherhood for the first time.
TMZ caught up with Bardi in New York City on Monday (September 11) as she makes her rounds to promote her new Megan Thee Stallion-assisted single, “Bongos.” When asked for words of wisdom for her peer, she was adamant about making time for yourself.
“What I would advise is that whenever you start feeling like emotional — you might not think it’s post-partum but it’s post-partum. So when that happens, go outside, take a breather, go drink some coffee, go eat some lunch on your own.”
She continued: “When you’re a new mom, the new schedule overwhelms you. Just do something that calms you down.”

Elsewhere in her “Bongos” promo run, Cardi B stopped by Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen on Monday night (September 11), where she revealed that she’d be down to perform at the Super Bowl after previously turning down an invitation to appear as a guest during her “Girl Like You” collaborators Maroon 5’s set.
“Yes. Now, I will say yes,” she said in response to a question from a viewer. “Things change.”
In 2019, Cardi admitted she had mixed feelings about hitting the Super Bowl stage as she wanted to stand in solidarity with former NFL quarterback Colin Kaepernick, who had essentially been blackballed by the league after kneeling during the National Anthem throughout 2016 and has not played in the NFL since.
“My husband, he loves football,” she told the Associated Press prior to the Super Bowl LIII contest between the New England Patriots and Los Angeles Rams. “His kids play football. It’s really hard for him … He really wants to go to the Super Bowl, but he can’t go to the Super Bowl, because he’s got to stand for something.
“You have to sacrifice that. I got to sacrifice a lot of money to perform. But there’s a man who sacrificed his job for us, so we got to stand behind him.”
However, Cardi had to defend starring in Super Bowl commercials and performing at other events surrounding the big game.
“I hear people saying like, ‘Oh, y’all are saying all this stuff about the Super Bowl, but you’re doing all these parties.’ And it’s like, ‘Well, if the NFL could benefit off from us, then I’m going to benefit off y’all.’
“Y’all make the most money off our people. Why am I not going to take advantage of y’all and take money from y’all too? Because of y’all, we are getting these parties. Okay, thank you.”
