Cardi B Becomes the New Voice of New York’s Subway—And She’s Keeping It Real!

From selling her new album on street corners to taking over the city’s iconic subway speakers, Cardi B is officially everywhere in New York.

The Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) announced Tuesday that the Grammy-winning rap superstar will be the latest celebrity voice featured in public safety announcements throughout the city’s subway system. Commuters across all five boroughs can now hear Cardi B’s unmistakable Bronx flair as she dishes out hilarious but practical advice on train etiquette.

“Steps are for stepping, not sitting. Move it, Bucko!” she declares, making sure riders know exactly how to keep things moving. In another announcement, she urges New Yorkers: “Stop subway surfing. Ride safe, keep it cute and keep it moving.” The MTA dropped a video on social media with Cardi in action, instantly racking up views and laughs.

Cardi B, 32, has been making headlines lately for her creative album promotion tactics. She recently went viral after posting clips of herself “selling” her long-awaited second studio album, Am I the Drama?, right on subway trains and bustling street corners.

In one particularly memorable video, Cardi jokes about her record label slashing her budget to just $50 after filming her “Imaginary Playerz” music video—so she’s out there hustling CDs herself. Fans loved her authenticity, and the results speak for themselves: according to Billboard, Am I the Drama? was certified platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America on its very first day of release.

And Cardi B isn’t slowing down. She’s set to replace The Weeknd as the headliner for the 2025 Global Citizen Festival in Central Park this Saturday, and her “Little Miss Drama Tour” will take over Madison Square Garden and the Prudential Center next spring.

From the subway to the stage, Cardi B is proving once again that she’s the true voice of New York—literally.
