She’s able to enjoy the finer things in life after escaping poverty.
Now Cardi B has given fans a glimpse into the financial struggles her family faced when she was growing up.
While the songstress, 32, was able to spoil her kids with epic Easter baskets on Sunday, she was reminded of a childhood spent without ever getting one herself.
Cardi poignantly revealed she never received an Easter basket as a child as she shared video of her daughter Kulture, six, and son Wave, three, playing with their gifts.
Cardi poignantly lamented in the post: ‘I ain’t never had a Easter basket growing up… just eggs and church.’
While she is now a wildly successful musician who Celebrity Net Worth estimates has a net worth of $80 million, she endured poverty as a child and last year Cardi opened up about being a ‘product of welfare.’

‘I’m a daughter of two immigrant parents that had to work their a** off to provide for me!’ she said in a tweet hitting out against Elon Musk. ‘I’m a product of welfare, I’m a product of section 8, I’m a product of poverty and I’m a product of what happens when the system is set up against you.’
In addition to Kulture and Wave, Cardi shares a third child, a seven-month-old daughter, with her ex Offset.
She gave her 163 million Instagram followers a rare peek at her baby daughter on Saturday.
The music artist — who recently accused ex Offset of harassment — used the app’s Stories feature to tease a brief video clip with her youngest child.
The mom-of-three, who shares Kulture, Wave, and her baby with the 33-year-old Migos rapper, rested in bed with the little one nuzzled on her chest.
She wrote across the dimly lit outtake, ‘Look how she cuddles under me… my little [flower emoji].’
Cardi — who just showed off her curves at Coachella — has yet to reveal her baby girl’s name, though fans are convinced it’s Blossom, or something similar.
Cardi, real name Belcalis Almánzar, claimed weeks ago in an explosive social media rant that Offset has harassed and threatened to kill her amid their contentious divorce.

The Bodak Yellow hitmaker filed for divorce from the Atlanta-raise hip-hop artist last July.
In late March she used X, the app formerly known as Twitter, to also allege that Offset has gotten bloggers to ‘troll’ her.

She threatened to ‘expose f***ing everything’ if she didn’t get an apology from her on-off spouse, claiming, ‘He’s upset because I sent his girlfriend messages of him begging me, saying he was going to take away his life, saying he was going to take away my life.’
The former Love & Hip-Hop star alleged that her ex — real name Kiari Cephus — ‘harasses me, leaves me voicemails, and tries to lower my self-esteem.’
Following her split from Offset last year, she has been romantically linked to Houston Texans wide receiver Stefon Diggs, and she claimed that the rapper has tried to interfere with her love life.
‘He sent a text message to somebody I was dealing with of us having sex,’ she accused him during the sound off. ‘You’ve been harassing me and the man I’ve been dealing with for months.’
At another point, Cardi also accused Offset of getting bloggers to troll and spread rumors about her on social media.

It comes weeks after Offset requested joint legal custody of the former couple’s three children.
Despite the request, legal documents reviewed by TMZ revealed that he does, however, think Cardi’s home should be the kids’ primary residence.
The hitmaker also wants the court to outline each parent’s child support responsibilities.
Furthermore, he asked that the exes’ marital assets be divided by the court, and that each party pay their respective legal fees.
Offset and Cardi’s tumultuous relationship has been off and on for years, and last summer was the third time she filed for divorce.
She announced her third pregnancy on August 1, one day after she filed to dissolve her marriage with Cephus.
