Confession! we love a cute little Coach bag so when Cardi B’s ‘Coach lyric’ in her new song ‘Like What’ rubbed folks the wrong way, we kind of understood where people were coming from.
After all the chatter …..Cardi made it clear that she in fact loves Coach and to prove it she invited her audience to do a little shopping with her.
According to COMPLEX the Grammy winner’s latest track includes a lyric about the luxury brand’s bags that playfully posits the pieces as not being “what you want,” like so:
Classy and a cunt
Blocks and money gettin’ spunt
Like, like what?
Like a Coach bag, baby, this ain’t what you want
Tuesday, in a TikTok fittingly soundtracked by “Like What,” Cardi is seen leaving her house and heading to a nearby Coach store, at which point she considers several potential bag buys before landing on one that aligns with her style.
“Come with me to buy a Coach bag,” she captioned the video.
@iamcardib Come with me to buy a Coach bag ????
In a recent Instagram Live session, Cardi broke down the Cam’ron inspiration behind her new single and told fans she was going to “buy me a Coach bag” soon, a promise she clearly made good on.
“I’m not trying to be on some rich shit and everything,” Cardi said at the time. “This is just real New York shit. I ain’t trying to offend none of y’all.”
We love Cardi!! ❤️

As for that Cam connection, fans will note that the It Is What It Is co-host rapped about the brand’s bags in his and Vado’s “Hey Muma,” released back in 2011. In the song’s first verse, Cam advises a woman with “no swag” to “get rid of that Coach bag.”
Camron soon responded to Cardi telling her to ‘stand in them bars’ and leave him out of the mix.
#Camron chimes in on #CardiB explaining her “ Like a Coach bag, baby, this ain’t what you want,” lyrics.

What Did Cardi Buy?
While we cannot say what Cardi B purchased for sure….. we are guessing she picked up a Coach Tabby simply based on the fact that she appeared to like it in the video!
Next for Cardi is the arrival of her long-awaited sophomore album, which follows her Best Rap Album winner Invasion of Privacy from 2018. In a recent update to fans, Cardi teased that an official announcement was imminent. But first, fans have a new Cardi and Shakira collaboration to look forward to later this month.
