Song meaning of “Up”:
“One of the most prominent themes in “Up” is the empowerment of women. Cardi B asserts her dominance as a female rapper in lines like, “If it’s up, then it’s stuck,” which is a phrase she’s used frequently on her social media accounts. This statement means that if someone has a problem with Cardi or her success, they’ll have to deal with it because she’s not going anywhere.
Cardi’s lyrics also address double standards and misogyny in the music industry. She calls out male rappers who criticize her for being a former stripper, saying, “I ain’t never played a hoe position, I ain’t never have to strip to get the pole position.” By reclaiming the term “hoe” and proudly owning her past, Cardi B is creating a space for women in hip-hop to be unapologetically themselves.”

We do not apologize for using a song created by a woman that was meant to help other women and girls feel empowered!! Our studio's goal is the same as Cardi's: to create a space for anyone to be “unapologetically themselves”
