Welcome back to Hitmaker Chronicles' countdown of the Top 20 Songs of the Summer, as voted by the staff of Caloroga Shark Media! I'm your host, Garrett Fisher. Coming in at number 9, we're diving into Cardi B's explosive 2018 collaboration "I Like It" featuring Bad Bunny and J Balvin — a track that merged hip-hop swagger with Latin rhythms to create an unstoppable summer anthem. We'll trace how a Bronx rapper's meteoric rise collided with reggaeton's global moment while "Black Panther" dominated culture and streaming was reshaping the music industry. Grab your hoop earrings — we're heading into the era of Cardi's takeover.
