City Girls & Cardi B Deliver Top-Notch 'Twerk' NSFW Music Video
YUNG MIAMI AND CARDI B
Dame Dash Allegedly Tried To Steal Beyoncé From JAY-Z
The “Twerk” music video City Girls has been teasing for the past few months with a $25,000 twerk challenge and flicks of Yung Miami and Cardi B dripping in animal- style body paint on a Miami beach is finally out.
At Yung Miami’s request, thousands of City Girls and City Boys submitted their best twerking videos for an opportu- nity to not only win $25,000 but to also get “flewed out” with all “expenseses” paid for, and a chance to star in the music video.
The visual takes place on a yacht with a plethora of thick baddies twerking and there’s not a single struggle twerker in sight. The video also sees
Cardi returning to her stripper roots with a few shake club moves on a pole and Miami shakes something too as her ac- robatic dance partner.
The making of this Daps-di- rected music video nearly landed Cardi in hot water, however. In December, when the video was being shot, she missed a court appearance over the alleged beat down she or- dered of two Angels Strip Club bartenders in Queens, New York.
The Quality Control rap group posted a picture of the winner for their $25,000 contest back in December and you can catch her popping on a headstand in City Girl’s official “Twerk” music video on Youtube.
In the wake of Nick Can- non’s recent interview with Dame Dash, another inter- view has resurfaced that ad- dresses Funk Flex’s allegations the Roc-A-Fella co- founder tried to steal “JAY-Z’s girl.”

like he kissed or sexed her or something like that,” Choke said. “Did he try to holler at her? Yeah. That’s the same thing he did with Aaliyah. We all know there was a point at Roc-A-Fella where Dame wasn’t allowed around Bey- oncé. Everybody that worked there at that time knew [...] be- cause he was a creep.
“Beyonce wasn’t going for that s*&t. And the only reason why Aaliyah might have gone for it was because he wouldn’t be public with her and tried to keep that sh*& private.”
