7 Songs To Play On Repeat That Remind You You're An Independent Woman
Alyssa Cameron Price

Ladies, with the release of Cardi B's new album and Drake's single, this is the best time to drop your man who cannot fathom the concept of acting right and live your best life. Don't reply to those "you up" texts and don't try to come up with excuses for his actions. If he truly wanted you, he would act like it.

None of that "I have feelings for you" but doesn't contact you for two weeks isn't going to fly anymore. Especially, not when you have songs like these telling you to drop his sorry butt. You do you, girl, and don't let a man who won't help you grow to get you down in your feels.

So if you need a little inspiration, here are seven songs that will make you realize that you should leave those broke boys alone.

1. "Truth Hurts" - Lizzo

If you are looking for a banger, your search has come to an end when it comes to "Truth Hurts." This song is truly a hit, especially if you are needing a reminder of how bad you are.

With lyrics like, "I will never, ever, ever, ever, ever be your side chick / I put the sing in single / Ain't worried 'bout a ring on my finger / So you can tell your friend, "shoot your shot" when you see 'em / It's OK, he already in my DMs."

2. "Icy Grl" - Saweetie

As soon as this song comes on, girl, you will be ready to face the world. You'll know every word to this song by heart before you know it, so when he texts you to hang out after not replying to texts, don't be afraid to let him know that you're charging by the minute cause your time is very pricey.

3. "I Do" - Cardi B ft. SZA

Did you think I could make through the first five without a shoutout to this queen? Cardi's new album gave me life, and I promise that it will make you realize that you are better off doing you than entertaining an unfaithful boo.

"I Do" is one of my favorites on the album So remember ladies, "Leave his texts on red, leave his balls on blue. Put it in airplane mode so none of those calls come through."

4. "Medicine" - Queen Naija

This song is the kind that you will blast through your speakers in the car, in the shower, and in your headphones. Giving a taste of his own medicine, Queen Naija reminds us that we can entertain other dudes too if you decide to not act right when we have been faithful. Hurt us and we will call up Brian, facetime Ryan, text Lorenzo, and leave you crying.

5. "Be Careful" - Cardi B

Cardi really snapped on all her songs, and "Be Careful" is not an exception. She stays telling us not to let men treat us wrong. "If you lose me, you're misfortunate."

Cardi wants you to know your worth and leave when he doesn't see it. "It's not a threat, it's a warning" so these men need to be careful.

6. "B.A.N." - Saweetie

This song probably goes the hardest out of all seven songs, and that is exactly why you should go listen to it on repeat. It will have you ready to cut off anyone who does you wrong and then show off in front of them. "Got your role models on my phone and they all wanna smash.

Ever since I cut you off, my skin's been glowing like Rhianna's. I've been all about the commas, shoulda listened to my mama" is iconic and should totally be your Insta caption when you're flexing on these boys.

7. "Too Much" - Kehlani

The final song that will put you in the right mindset is "Too Much" by Kehlani.

If you ever need a reason to break it off, just remember you are too much of a woman to be dealing with these boys.

We Heart It

Over the past decade, television has undergone a very crucial transition: the incorporation of female lead characters. Since it's a known fact that girls actually do run the world (Beyonce said so herself), it's time for the leading ladies of the small screen to get some credit. Without these characters, women would still be sitting in the background of our favorite shows. These women are not only trailblazers for female empowerment, but role models for women worldwide. With that, here are 15 of the smartest, sassiest ladies gracing our screens that remind us that women do, indeed, rule:

If you are like me, you have an interesting personality. Basically, you love to be sassy and snarky, gossip, and act like a total bitch (not really), but deep down, you are actually a very genuinely nice person. The idea of actually hurting someone truly makes you feel bad, and you probably have never actually hurt someone’s feelings because your kindness always shines through, even if you do not want it to. Not sure exactly what I would call this type of personality, but if you identify with it, here are some feelings you can undoubtedly relate to.
