The fire ripped through a Bronx apartment building on January 9, 2022, claiming 17 lives.

In a statement to CNN, Cardi B pledged to foot the burial expenses of victims of the fire to relieve the pains of their loved ones.

“I’m extremely proud to be from the Bronx, and I have lots of family and friends who live and work there still.

“So, when I heard about the fire and all of the victims, I knew I needed to do something to help. 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. I send my prayers and condolences to everyone affected by this horrific tragedy.”

The “Bodak Yellow” rapper also partnered with The Mayor’s Fund to ensure that the victims’ families are included in her donation.

New York Mayor Eric Adams statement appreciated Cardi B for the kind gesture.

“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.

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 neighbours in need, to reestablish themselves during this difficult time.”.

All 17 victims of the fire died of smoke inhalation. Authorities say a malfunctioning electric space heater started the blaze, and a door left openly allowed smoke to spread throughout the building.
