If you are excited the song 'Bodak Yellow' by Cardi B has overtaken Taylor Swift as the number one spot on the [Billboard](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/Audio-journalism-platforms) Hot 100 Chart, you can celebrate with this special [Lyft](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/discounted-rideshare) code. If you are in New York City, you can turn your Lyft icons into the female rap artist's face and fingernails using the Lyft code "BardiGang" until October 1st. A press release explains the single-celebrating feature displays her "infamous blinged out nail art as the graphic of your Lyft vehicle the next time you catch a ride in NYC."

Cardi B topping the charts is significant because this is the first time a female rapper has taken number one unassisted since Lauryn Hill in 1998.
