She was an exotic dancer prior to her rap career.

And Cardi B showcased her dance repertoire as she took to the stage at Jay-Z’s Eighth Annual Made In America Festival in Philadelphia on Saturday .

The Bodak Yellow hitmaker, 26, was sure to send temperatures soaring as she slipped her hourglass curves into a rainbow catsuit that clung to her perky bottom and flashed her cleavage with the key hole detailing on the chest.

Cardi’s stage ensemble was decorated with diamond tassels that enhanced her movements as she took to the stage for an hour.

Bringing more sparkle to her look, the bombshell’s hair was encrusted with green and red hair gems styled by hairstylist Tokyo Stylez.

Proving she knows how to move, the hip-hop star twerked for the crowd and even flipped upside down.

Continuing to give it her all, the New York native squatted down as she jiggled her assets and drove the crowd wild as she got down on all fours whilst singing down her blinged-up microphone.

The Love & Hip Hop: New York alum is next scheduled to perform this Thursday at the Saratoga Performing Arts Center in Saratoga Springs, NY.

Earlier that day, Cardi went on one of her notoriously incoherent rants about haters – like Travis Scott’s ardent fans – trying to tear her down and call her Grammy win illegitimate.

‘When I was a stripper with crooked teeth, n****s didn’t give a f***. They used to fall in love with me. And b****es would be like, “Oh my god, why her? She’s a f***ing stripper. She’s so ratchet.” Even when I got with [my husband] Offset,’ the former Bloods gangbanger – who boasts 74.9M followers – said.

‘It’s like what the f*** you mean, why her? B**** because I’m a motherf***ing vibe. Unforgettable, unexplainable. Like, I’m really like that homie that n****s like to talk to, laugh with ca-ca-ca-ca-ca with good p***y. Y’all b****es be cute, but y’all just ain’t that vibe.’

 

Careful! At one point, Cardi kicked off her rainbow booties to scale the rafters barefoot while rapping tracks like Backin’ It Up, Taki Taki, Wish Wish Clout, Bartier Cardi, and Bodak Yellow
