Painted directly onto the note, Cardi B appears in an icy wig and chrome nails, caught mid–shhh gesture as if letting you in on a secret. The cool metallic highlights and soft skin tones clash beautifully with the rigid green engraving of the bill, transforming everyday currency into a celebration of celebrity, confidence, and the women who rewrite the rules of value on their own terms.
