How much does it cost to pull off the Dubai-set “Bodak Yellow” video, the luxurious strip club in the “Money” clip or the star-studded “WAP” mansion? Cardi B shared all the music video budget secrets on Tuesday (Jan. 12) via Twitter.
It all started when the rapper shared a “fun fact” about her 2017 “Bodak Yellow” visual, revealing that it “cost me 15 thousand dollars,” before adding, “I was in Dubai and I said ….I gotta fly picture (videographer) out here …BOOM BOOM BANG ! Ya know the rest.”

When a fan thought that was “a lot” of money, Cardi shared that $15,000 is peanuts compared to the budget of her more high-profile videos. “Naaaa honey ….Money cost 400K ,Please me Cost 900K ,Wap Cost a M !” she wrote, adding that she didn’t remember how much the “Press” clip cost and that “Be Careful” was “probably like 200K.”

Cardi wasn’t just talking money, though. She also replied to fans who asked about her experience filming specific videos.
Though she looked like she was having a blast alongside Bad Bunny and J Balvin for the “I Like It” visual, the rapper admitted she was “was extremely annoyed that day. I was pregnant and hot and paparazzi was being so annoying and rude.”
