  "account": "Cardi B has declared her admiration for Keyshia Cole's debut album, The Way It Is, stating that it is \"the greatest album of all time\" and that every woman should listen to it. In a feature for New York Times T Magazine, Cardi B named The Way It Is as her top pick among artists the publication considers the \"Greats.\" The album, released in July 2005, debuted at No. 6 on the Billboard 200 chart and remained on the list for 64 weeks, propelled by hits like \"I Changed My Mind,\" \"I Should Have Cheated,\" and \"Love.\" Cardi B is not the only artist to praise the album; R&B singer Ari Lennox also referred to it as one of the most phenomenal debut albums ever in 2019. However, despite their shared appreciation for the album, Cardi B and Cole have not collaborated on any music together.",
