Fresh off her very public retreat from Instagram and well-deserved win at this year's Billboard Music Awards, Cardi B is back and hasn't returned empty-handed. The Bronx rapper premiered her latest music video for the single "Be Careful" off her debut LP Invasion of Privacy. The clip is the latest installment in Cardi's videography, preceded by the Petra Collins-lensed "Bartier Cardi," and it's every bit as a cinematic masterpiece as you could imagine. 

Taking place in a remote, Texas-y chapel, the video opens with Cardi as a bride walking down the aisle, Beyoncé fans blowing in full force as she recites her love to her gunslingin' beau. The Western-style setting brings to mind Tarantino's Kill Bill Vol. 2, and that iconic (albeit bloody) wedding scene. As director Jora Frantzis pans to several religious motifs like crucifixes and figurines of saints, the heavenly vision takes a dark 180, as the nuptials transform into a funeral.
