About Be Careful

"Be Careful" is a song recorded by American rapper Cardi B. It was released on March 29, 2018, as the third single from her debut studio album Invasion of Privacy (2018). The song was written by Cardi B, Jordan Thorpe, and its producers Boi-1da, Vinylz, and Frank Dukes. It contains an interpolation from "Ex-Factor", written and performed by Lauryn Hill, which itself samples "Can It Be All So Simple", written and performed by Wu-Tang Clan. The latter song also samples "The Way We Were". Therefore, Hill, the eight members of Wu-Tang Clan, and Marvin Hamlisch, Alan Bergman and Marilyn Bergman are credited among the composers. A song about infidelity, "Be Careful" was inspired by her past romantic relationships in New York City, which annoyed Almánzar when she was finishing recording Invasion of Privacy there. "Be Careful" peaked at number 11 on the US Billboard Hot 100, and reached the top 40 in Canada, Ireland, New Zealand and the United Kingdom. The song received a nomination for Best Rap Performance at the 61st Annual Grammy Awards more »
