Petra Collins directs Cardi B’s new video

The photographer and filmmaker gets behind the lens for the lavish ‘Bartier Cardi’ visual

Cardi B’s much-anticipated debut album Invasion of Privacy is out this Friday (April 6), and ahead of its release, the rapper has dropped a visual for “Bartier Cardi”.

Directed by Petra Collins – who recently helmed the video for Selena Gomez’s “Fetish” – the “Bartier Cardi” video exudes retro Hollywood glamour: mansions, pools, models, and retro TVs. Offset, Cardi’s fiancé, makes a brief cameo in the back of a car, and at one point 21 Savage gets involved with a bit of rope bondage.

“Bartier Cardi” was first released at the tail end of 2017, and its video arrives hot on the heels of new single “Be Careful”. Its new video was premiered during an episode of Love & Hip Hop: Atlanta – a logical pairing, as Cardi B was previously a cast member of Love & Hip Hop: New York.
