That’s because Call of Duty just teased an unexpected collaboration with popular music artist and millionaire rapper Cardi B. At least that seems to be the case right now. Or is it? Let’s find out.
Cardi B seems unaware about Ghost pendant in her new music video which links to Call of Duty Modern Warfare II
It all started with the official Call of Duty Twitter account sharing a stunning clip of the custom pendants based on the operator Simon “Ghost” Riley. He’s one of the main squad members in the upcoming MWII title. The video showed the making of the diamond pendants with utmost care and precision.

Now that’s where everything became interesting as far as the CoD fandom is concerned. Around the time of the franchise dropping the Ghost pendant’s first look, American singer and rapper Cardi B also shared a tweet. In that, she informed about the release of her latest music video titled ‘Hot S**t’. And this isn’t any regular video though, but one that broke the internet within a couple of hours.

But this was just the beginning, as Cardi B soon replied to CharlieIntel with a possibly teasing question. “Who knows where this from?”, she wrote while mentioning that she had no idea about what was going on regarding the necklace.

To make it very obvious, the official Call of Duty account then replied to Cardi B’s question. They wrote that they know the guy depicted on the pendant (yes it’s Simon “Ghost Riley”). In case anyone missed it, CoD had also replied back to the rapper when she initially dropped the tweet about her music video. Have a look and decide for yourself if this is an indication of something or not.

Well, all things considered, it may be or may not be the case that Activision has made some kind of promotional collaboration with the hip-hop artist.
Fans wonder if the hip-hop artist is involved with the series or not
Meanwhile, fans lost their minds as soon as they noticed this big reveal on social media. After CharlieIntel’s discovery of her necklace’s identical looks with that of the Ghost pendant, many users dropped various reactions to Cardi B’s tweet in which she wrote that she had no idea about it.
Players replied by telling the singer that she was wearing none other than Ghost’s diamond pendant. Others also mentioned the same thing while informing her about the upcoming Modern Warfare II. There were also a few fans who were just stunned by all of this unexpected development. They wondered whether the artist will appear as a playable operator in the future of the franchise.
