What does "WAP" stand for?

After the song's release, "WAP" made headlines for its controversial lyrics. "The song is really nasty. The song always been nasty," Cardi B said in an interview with Hot97. "My verses and the hook has been the same since before Megan was there. So it just always been a nasty song and it’s like, 'Who’s saying more nastier things than Megan?'" 

The songstress also told the hosts that "WAP" stands for "wet a-- p--sy." Adding, "It was really hard for me to clean this song up."

Well, we're sure "WAP" will go down in the history books as a viral moment in 2020.
