When Cardi B calls, she knows she can count on Selena Gomez to pick it up.
In a recent clip from her CBS Mornings interview posted to TikTok, the rapper had nothing but kind things to say about the Rare Beauty founder, who guests on a song titled “Pick It Up” on Cardi’s new album Am I the Drama?, which dropped Friday (Sept. 19). “I just feel like she sounded really lovely for this song, and she’s such a delight to work with,” the hip-hop star said of Gomez.

“She comes through,” the hitmaker added emphatically. “And support.”
