Cardi B nearly spills out of a bedazzled bra after writhing around in a string bodysuit as she appears in the new music video for her freestyle rap Like What.
The music video, which teeters on X-rated due to her racy outfits and highly-suggestive camera work, was directed by the 31-year-old rapper’s estranged husband Offset, 32.
This only fuels speculation that the couple may have reconciled just two-and-a-half months after confirming their shock split.
Cardi released Like What at midnight as she wrote to her fans on Instagram: ‘Ooo man 𝚋𝚊𝚋𝚢 here we go again’
The music video begins with drone footage of a glass mega-mansion on a hillside with an infinity pool.

Cardi emerges nearly-nude in a tiny black vinyl one-piece that can barely contain her large bust as she struts down the hallway in a luxurious fur coat.
She’s rocking sparkly diamond jewels and her hair is pulled back in a tight bun to show off her dramatic makeup.
She climbs down the mansion stairs and heads to the backyard where she ditches her coat and begins laying out on a red couch.
The WAP hitmaker turns around for the camera to reveal her bare backside before a dramatic high angle shot spotlights her cleavage.
With the sun overhead, Cardi hilariously begins eating shrimp out of a pricey Louis Vuitton handbag with chopsticks.
Next, the mother-of-two models a furry bubblegum pink cutout bodysuit with matching heeled boots and a glamorous shrug.
This time she styles her hair in a beehive decked out with countless tiny pink bows and pearls.
Cardi sports bizarre, neon pink eye makeup as well as eerie pink contact lenses as she stares into the camera and raps.

For Cardi’s third look, she makes jaws drop in a low-cut bombshell bra with coordinating panties and boots.
Instead of her raven hair, the Grammy Award-winner stuns in a Barbie blonde wig.
To enhance her outfit’s sparkle, Offset made the choice of filming in the mansion’s dark stairwell with just a single spotlight illuminating Cardi.
She’s also filmed twerking and gyrating in front of a white backdrop surrounded by softbox lights.

Like What is Cardi’s first solo single in three years and samples the Missy Elliott song She’s a B***h.
Cardi released the song Bongos with Megan Thee Stallion last year but promised fans a solo single was on the way.
The release of Cardi’s new music video comes two weeks after she and Offset were spotted on a romantic Valentine’s Day date in Miami, Florida.

Despite unfollowing each other in December and announcing they were going their separate ways late last year, the Grammy-winning rapper and father-of-five dined together at Carbone.
The duo arrived to the Italian eatery together, but an eyewitness told TMZ that they ‘went inside a few minutes after Cardi’ in an attempt to seemingly try to ‘stagger themselves.’
Offset, best known as a member of the hip-hop trio Migos, was friendly to fans as they approached him, and reportedly gave one a hug.
As they left the restaurant around midnight, the onlooker reported ‘they emerged together’ before heading home into the same vehicle.
Neither Cardi or Offset posted anything from their night out or tributes to each other on social media.
In December, Cardi confirmed that she had separated from Offset during another Instagram Live session.
According to E! News, the Grammy winner told her fans that she had ‘been single for a minute now’ and admitted that her hesitation to reveal the news was because she did not ‘know how to tell the world.’
The performer – whose estranged husband was alleged to have cheated on her with Chrisean Rock – remained optimistic about her future, however, and told her fans that she was ‘curious for a new life, for a new beginning.’

The Bodak Yellow rapper then stated that she was ‘excited’ about her new stage in life.
Last week, eagle-eyed fans noticed that Cardi (born Belcalis Marlenis Almánzar) and Offset (born Kiari Kendrell Cephus) both unfollowed each other.
The rapper also recently shared a cryptic Instagram story post where she revealed, ‘You know sometimes you just outgrow relationships.’
She added in the next story post, ‘I’m tired of protecting people’s feelings… I GOTTA PUT MYSELF FIRST.’
This certainly wouldn’t be the first time the couple has been on the outs throughout their tumultuous relationship.
The couple reportedly met at an ‘industry event’ in 2016, with Cardi B recalling in a November 2017 Twitter video, ‘He was very consistent. He really wanted to talk to me.’
They reportedly started dating in January 2017, the same month they released a song together called Lick.
Cardi shared a photo of them on her Instagram during the Super Bowl, referring to the Migos rapper as, ‘my friend… you know what I’m saying?’
Offset later revealed that the Super Bowl was their first real date, with the couple sharing a kissing Instagram snap on Valentine’s Day 2017.

While Cardi refused to confirm she was even dating Offset that summer, she dropped some not-so-subtle marriage hints at the VMAs in late August 2017.
Less than a month later, the couple secretly married in Fulton County, Georgia, though it was not publicly revealed until June 2018.
Offset proposed to Cardi on stage in October 2017 – despite already being legally married – though in January 2018, rumors surfaced that not only had Offset cheated on Cardi, but he had made a 𝓈ℯ𝓍 tape with another woman.
Cardi defended her decision to stay with Offset in February 2018, stating, ‘It’s not right, what he f***ing did—but people don’t know what I did, ’cause I ain’t no angel.’
Pregnancy rumors swirled just weeks later, with Cardi confirming she’s expecting while performing on Saturday Night Live, with the couple welcoming their first child Kulture in June 2018.
After months of cheating rumors, Cardi revealed in December 2018 that she had split with Offset, even denying rumors their entire relationship was ‘fake.’
Later that month, while Cardi was performing at Rolling Loud, Offset took over her set in an effort to win her back, with signs reading, ‘Take Me Back Cardi.’
A month later they had reconciled, with the couple in attendance at the Grammy’s where Cardi became the first solo female artist to win Best Rap Album.
