It's safe to say that whether you like her or not, you know who Cardi B is. She is constantly making headlines for setting new records and releasing new music.

Cardi B is well aware of what it's like to start from the bottom. She was born in The Bronx, New York, and had a bit of a rough upbringing. By the age of 16, she was involved in gangs, and was a member of the Bloods. She was also involved in stripping by the time she was 19.

Although people may judge her for stripping, she saw it as a good thing. She saw it as an opportunity for her to be able to pay school and nothing else.

Although Cardi B has quickly risen to fame, she has continued to stay humble throughout it all. She knows what it's like to come from nothing, and has not forgotten where she came from.

Cardi B is all about self expression. If you look at her style or listen to her music, you know she's not afraid to be herself. She often takes to her Instagram or Snapchat stories to speak her mind about current situations.

She takes to her social media platforms to speak on how we should better our country. On April 18, 2018 Senator Bernie Sanders tweeted how he agreed with Cardi B on Social Security.

It is also apparent that Cardi B never stops working. With just having performed at Coachella, she recently released her new album Invasion of Privacy. This album debuted at number one, and her songs are continuing to top the charts.

Cardi B can be a hit or miss with people. However you feel about her, you have to respect her hustle, and ability to create a better life for herself.

Raising the minimum wage to a livable wage would not only benefit workers and their families, it would also have positive impacts on the economy and society. Studies have shown that by increasing the minimum wage, poverty and inequality can be reduced by enabling workers to meet their basic needs and reducing income disparities.

I come from a low-income family. A family, like many others in the United States, which has lived paycheck to paycheck. My family and other families in my community have been trying to make ends meet by living on the minimum wage. We are proof that it doesn't work.

Every college student knows and understands the struggle of forcing themselves to continue to care about school. Between the piles of homework, the hours of studying and the painfully long lectures, the desire to dropout is something that is constantly weighing on each and every one of us, but the glimmer of hope at the end of the tunnel helps to keep us motivated. While we are somehow managing to stay enrolled and (semi) alert, that does not mean that our inner-demons aren't telling us otherwise, and who is better to explain inner-demons than the beloved April Ludgate herself? Because of her dark-spirit and lack of filter, April has successfully been able to describe the emotional roller-coaster that is college on at least 13 different occasions and here they are.
