Getting your Trinity Audio player ready…

This past weekend, everyone’s favorite unfiltered rapstress Cardi B touched down on the continent for the first time to perform in Nigeria and Ghana for the Livespot X Festival.

While in Accra, the Grammy Award winner took to her Instagram stories to show followers how she was enjoying the luxe life on the rooftop of the grand Kempinski Gold Coast Accra hotel. But it wasn’t the pool views or even the yummy shrimp that caught everyone’s attention.

All eyes were on Cardi’s sexy African print swimsuit and coverup, and we couldn’t help but wonder – where’d she get it from? Better yet, where can the girls with curves get one in time for our own return ‘home’ to Ghana?
