Watch :: Cardi B performs live on US TV

American hip hop artist and rapper Belcalis Almanzar, or Cardi B as she is better known, appeared on the US show Jimmy Kimmel Live last night (October 18) to perform her massive hit 'Bodak Yellow'.

Earlier in the year, the 25-year-old New Yorker became the first female rapper to take solo number 1 in the US since Lauryn Hill’s 'Doo Wop (That Thing)' back in 1998, with 'Bodak Yellow'.
