As spotted on TMZ Belcalis is stepping up for the Boogie Down once again. According to the report the “Be Careful” rapper is offering support to tenants of 333 East 181 Street. On January 9 a fire swept through the building killing over 17 people, including eight children. Additionally the tragedy has left the structure pretty much inoperable leaving the surviving tenants without a home. Several high profile celebrities quickly mobilized to help everyone with shelter, clothing and more.

Cardi is working with the newly appointed New York City Mayor Eric Adams to pay for all the funeral and burial expenses for those that passed. In a statement she detailed her sympathy. “I cannot begin to imagine the pain and anguish that the families of the victims are experiencing, but I hope that not having to worry about the costs associated with burying their loved ones will help as they move forward and heal” she said.

In response Mayor Adams thanked Cardi for her assistance. “We are grateful for Cardi B, a real superstar on and off the mic, for granting some critical financial relief to families of the victims” he said. “The city will be forever thankful to her and also to the grassroots donors and corporate partners who have been able to offer immediate support for our neighbors in need, to reestablish themselves during this difficult time.”
