It’s been years since the infectious kids song “Baby Shark” wiggled its way onto everyone’s computer screens in 2016. And since it went viral in 2018, eventually charting in the Billboard Hot 100 top 40 the next year, the absurdly catchy dance-along hit has gained a number of high-profile fans — including Cardi B.

So much so, Cardi and her husband Offset, along with their daughter Kulture Kiari and Wave Set, have all been incorporated into the Baby Shark cinematic universe. Not only did the famous family get sharkified in a 2022 episode of Baby Shark’s Big Show, but they also reprised their roles in 2023’s Baby Shark’s Big Movie.

And if you think that a children’s program isn’t cool enough to warrant attention from someone known for her give-no-f–ks raps, think again. She might be the woman who coined the phrase “bring a bucket and a mop for this wet a– p—y,” but she’s also a longtime vocal supporter of the small-but-mighty oceanic hero, and she has the social media track record to prove it. In fact, the lyrics to “I Like It” could be changed to “I like dollars, I like diamonds, I like stunting, I like shining — and most of all, I like Baby Shark.”

So, in celebration of Cardi’s unabashed passion for the series, as well as her numerous contributions to the Baby Shark canon, keep reading for a full timeline of the outspoken Grammy winner’s yearslong love for “Baby Shark” (doo-doo doo-doo doo-doo!).
