Cardi B leads a long list of nominees for the 2019 Billboard Music Awards.

On Thursday (April 4), Billboard reported that the 26-year-old superstar garnered a whopping 21 nominations in 18 different categories for the awards show. She almost tied the record for the most nominations achieved by Drake, who had 22 in 2017.

Among Cardi’s nominations include Top Rap Artist, Top Rap Female Artist and Top Rap album for Invasion of Privacy. She also received nods in the Top Hot 100 Artist, Top Streaming Songs Artist and Top Radio Songs Artist categories.

Cardi's Billboard nominations come after the rapper won the coveted Best Rap Album honor at the 2019 Grammy Awards in February.

Other Billboard Awards nominees include Post Malone and Drake who each nabbed 17 noms, while Travis Scott received 12 nods and XXXTentacion is up for 10 trophies.

The 2019 Billboard Music Awards will air live from the MGM Garden Arena in Las Vegas on May 1 at 8 p.m. EST on NBC.
