Cardi B is heading to the West Coast, with the Bronx rapper set to deliver a headlining performance at Create & Cultivate Festival on Sept. 20 in Downtown Los Angeles. Cardi will close the festival on Sept. 20 with a performance at 7:30 p.m. PT.
Notably, the festival celebrates women in business, and Cardi — who rapped about her “million-dollar deals” on the Billboard Hot 100 No. 1 hit “I Like It” — has proven to be a successful entrepreneur. The “WAP” rapper has made major money moves to bolster her corporate portfolio in recent years, with the latest venture coming earlier in 2026, when she launched her Grow-Good Beauty and haircare line.
