Cardi B directly dismantles the long-standing gender stereotype of women surrounding cleaning and cooking within a household. Speaking to the overall theme of female empowerment, Cardi B describes her wealth and success while creating no space for the stereotypical, submissive figure. The line also claims the general sentiment that women who possess prowess in the bedroom do not have to cook or clean to attract a good husband. The “ring” refers to her marriage to rapper Offset . She is rather overtly implying that the reason Offset proposed is because she’s good in bed.
