Inspirational. There’s no other way to describe Cardi B, the enigmatic, reigning queen of the hip-hop world.
Hustling her way up from an Amish Market in ɱaпhattan (where she worked as a cashier), Cardi B — by her real name, Belcalis Marlenis Almáпzar — has carved her own unique path to success. She kept her eyes on her goals and worked relentlessly to get to the top of the most competitive industry in the world.
Since first bursting onto the scene in 2017, the rapper from South Bronx has slowly but surely won the hearts of millions of fans worldwide.
She has been constantly making money moves, as she so prophetically sang in her first mega-hit, ‘Bodak Yellow’. Shooting to fame on Instagram before this hit for her ‘no filter’ commentary, she has made brutal honesty a central part of her songs as well.

After rising to the top of the Billboard charts and riding over a tumultuous phase with her now-husband, fellow rapper Offset, Cardi began hunting for a home to call their own.
The girl from the Bronx was convinced by Offset that Atlanta was the city for them to build their future in, as he had grown up there and they had called it home for a while.
With Cardi’s signature candor, she diligently kept her Instagram followers in the loop throughout her journey until she finally discovered what she had been seeking.
Cardi B’s House in Atlanta: What Dreams Are Made Of
After what seemed like a lifeᴛι̇ɱe, Cardi’s house hunt finally came to an end at the end of 2019 when she and Offset finally found what she has repeatedly called their “Dream Home”.
The clearly ecstatic Cardi shared their find on Insta with fans on just her second-ever visit to the mega-ɱaпsion set in the upscale Buckhead neighborhood of Atlanta.
Set on a sprawling 6-acre private property, the ɱaпsion comes complete with 5 bedrooms, 7 bathrooms, 4 half bathrooms, a wine cellar with an 1800-bottle capacity, and even an underground shooting range! Yes, a shooting range!
Surrounded by trees and European-style hedges, you can see that the estate was designed with privacy in mind. Though it was built fairly recently in 2006, the large doors, open layout of each room, and tall columns with ornate designs take you back to an earlier ᴛι̇ɱe — and stand in stark contrast to the sleek, modern abodes of her fellow recording artists.
The home also comes with a garage that is listed for a capacity of 4 cars but looks like it could accommodate more. It’s not hard to see why this three-story home caugh both Cardi B. and Offset’s eyes after their arduous journey looking for the perfect home.
Living the Luxury Life in One of Atlanta’s Most Desirable Areas
Offset and Cardi B live just north of Buckhead, in Sandy Springs — an inner ring suburb of Atlanta, Georgia — in a palatial abode they bought as a Christmas present for themselves in 2019.
While we don’t know how much the couple ended up paying for the massive house, we do know it was listed for sale with a whopping $5.79 million price tag — though its European-inspired architecture, opulent interiors and an endless list of amenities make it look like it would easily cost three ᴛι̇ɱes that amount.
Just as you walk past the grand entrance, you are greeted by a foyer that boasts a wide-open hallway into the 22,500 sq ft home. The oversized chandelier and a stylish winding staircase perfectly balance the vibes somewhere between a warm and inviting home and a palace fit for a queen.
