Cardi B and Megan Thee Stallion have given money away in the past

Though the “WAP” phenomenon is driving the current wave of generous cash drops, each rapper is experienced in sharing money with social media fans.

As recently as April, Cardi B partnered with Fashion Nova for a coronavirus-related promotion that gave out $1,000 every hour for a full month. Fans were instructed to share their stories of hardship for the opportunity to win.

Since quarantine began in March, Megan Thee Stallion reached into her own pockets to help fans out with bills and other needs. She used Cash App to send thousands of dollars to individuals and in a separate effort, donated funds and tablets to a Houston nursing home facility.

It’s not too late for fans to get in on the latest promotion. Catch the “WAP” cash giveaway on Twitter until Aug. 20.
