As Cardi B celebrates her third diamond plaque thanks to “I Like It” — which ties her with Katy Perry for the most diamond songs of any female artist ever — Lil Tjay will look to earn his first No. 1 hit if his collaboration with the Grammy Award-winner comes to fruition.
Tjay’s previous chart best came earlier this year with the 6LACK-assisted “Calling My Phone,” which peaked at No. 3 on the Billboard Hot 100. He’s also notched high-profile collaborations with J. Cole, Moneybagg Yo, French Montana, YG and the late Pop Smoke.
