Cardi B Records Subway PSAs for NYC Train Etiquette Campaign

Cardi B, the Grammy-winning rapper from the Bronx, has teamed up with New York City's Metropolitan Transportation Authority (MTA) to record a series of Public Service Announcements (PSAs) that will play in subway stations across the city. These announcements use Cardi B's distinctive personality and wit to promote subway safety and etiquette, with messages such as “We’re walking here! Steps are for stepping, not sitting. Move it, Bucko!” and reminders to pay fares and keep the trains moving. The collaboration coincides with the promotion of her new album, "Am I The Drama?", which was released recently to commercial success, including going platinum on its first day. Cardi B has also engaged in innovative promotional activities like busking in the subway and selling albums directly to commuters. The initiative reflects a fun and creative partnership between a New York cultural icon and the MTA to engage subway riders. This follows similar efforts by other artists, such as Billie Eilish, who partnered with the MTA for public messaging.
