The rapper Cardi B released a collection of products from his successful and controversial song “WAP”, among which are umbrellas, transparent raincoats, sports tops or t-shirts.
The 27-year-old New Yorker wants to maximize the earnings of her new and explicit single, in which she collaborated with Megan Thee Stallion, and that has aroused criticism even among his colleagues in the music sector.
Among the items for sale, a transparent raincoat with the initials WAP on the front and the XXX in which they warn of pornographic content in one of the sleeves for which the singer’s fans will have to pay 125 dollars, as well as an umbrella in black or purple for a more affordable price: 25 dollars.
It has also put sports tops for sale for $ 40, sweaters for $ 60 or crop tops for $ 25.
“WAP”, which was released in early August, has been on the lips of many for speaking explicitly about sex, and for focusing on sexual satisfaction for women.
Singer Ce Lo Green stated in an interview that “much of the music made today is unfortunate and disappointing” in reference to the vocabulary used in the song when asked about “WAP.”
However, Green himself was heavily criticized for insinuating that talking about women’s sexuality is less acceptable than talking about men’s sexuality, as has already been done in countless songs.
“WAP” has quickly caught on, becoming the most listened to on digital platforms in its first week, with more than 93 million views and downloads, according to Billboard.
What has been the first collaboration between Cardi B and Megan Thee Stallion was accompanied by a video to which they invited some of the most important female figures in pop culture of the moment, such as the Spanish singer-songwriter Rosalía or the influencer and businesswoman Kylie Jenner.
The women, clad in costumes that fit like a second skin, move to the rhythm of the music, while Cardi B and Megan rapping, changing outfits and walking through a house as luxurious as it is strange, reminiscent of some of scenes from the book “Alice in Wonderland”.
