The singer may make spitting rhymes look easy, but she’s somewhat less comfortable when it comes to using a steering wheel. “I hit something!” she admits after the video shows her backing up into some flags in a parking lot. “You think?” Corden responds drily. Cardi also shouts out some advice to kids at a playground as they drive by: “Stay in school! Listen to your mom! Or you won’t be getting no Christmas gifts!” she recommends. (She is a new mom herself, having [given birth](http://time.com/5373093/cardi-b-vmas-2/) to baby Kulture, her daughter with Migos rapper Offset, in July.) Since putting out her debut album in the spring and giving birth in the summer, Cardi has also released a single this fall, “Money,” and made select performance appearances. ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/5480357/cardi-b-carpool/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/5480357/cardi-b-carpool/"},"headline":"Cardi B Quite Literally Crashed the Carpool Karaoke Car With James Corden","datePublished":"2018-12-14T20:53:39.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:56:27.899Z","description":"Cardi may not belong behind the wheel","url":"https://time.com/5480357/cardi-b-carpool/","keywords":["Newsfeed","celebrities","Music","carpool karaoke","Cardi B"],"thumbnailUrl":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltea9116b19611500b/6989418a929fad8645bf252f/Screen-Shot-2018-12-14-at-3.23.18-PM.png?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Raisa Bruner","jobTitle":null,"url":"https://time.com/author/raisa-bruner/"}],"articleSection":"","image":[{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://static.time.com/v3/assets/bltea6093859af6183b/bltea9116b19611500b/6989418a929fad8645bf252f/Screen-Shot-2018-12-14-at-3.23.18-PM.png?branch=production&width=1200&quality=75&auto=webp&crop=1200:675&height=675","width":1200,"height":675,"headline":"cardi-b-carpool","caption":"","creditText":"YouTube","representativeOfPage":true}],"publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Time","url":"https://time.com/","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://time.com/images/logo.png","width":528,"height":156},"foundingDate":"March 3, 1923","sameAs":["https://www.facebook.com/time","https://www.instagram.com/time/?hl=en","https://twitter.com/time","https://www.pinterest.com/timemagazine"]}},{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"/tag/time-section-newsfeed/","name":"Newsfeed"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https://time.com/5480357/cardi-b-carpool/","name":"Cardi B Quite Literally Crashed the Carpool Karaoke Car With James Corden"}}]}] ```
