Taylor Swift sent Cardi B some flowers after the rapper’s single “Bodak Yellow” reached No. 1 last week, knocking Swift from her top spot on the Billboard music charts. Cardi B is the first female rapper to hit No. 1 without another artist being featured on her song, since Lauryn Hill in 1998. Swift’s “Look What You Made Me Do,” fell to No. 3 after just three weeks in the No. 1 spot. In an Instagram post Thursday, Cardi B showed off the bouquet of flowers from Swift. "Sooo beautiful and lovely. Thank you @taylorswift for the flowers....and I freaking love your music," Cardi B captioned the Instagram video. The friendly gesture came after Swift fans tried to knock Cardi B from the charts by streaming Swift’s single nonstop.

Sooo beautiful and lovely .Thank you @taylorswift for the flowers 💐❤️❤️....and I freaking love your music 🎶
