Cardi B was visibly emotional during the speech, joking to the crowd, \"The nerves are so bad -- maybe I need to start smoking weed.\"
\"Invasion of Privacy,\" released in April 2018, went double platinum in October and contains hits like \"Bodak Yellow,\" \"Be Careful,\" \"Drip\" and \"I Like It.\"
The singer went home empty handed in her other four nominations: record of the year, album of the year, best pop duo/group performance and best rap performance.
She performed one of her hit singles, \"Money,\" during the award show.
