"I cannot begin to imagine the pain and anguish that the families of the victims are experiencing, but I hope that not having to worry about the costs associated with burying their loved ones will help as they move forward and heal," Cardi B told TMZ.

The music star a native of New York, is working with The Mayor's Fund to Advance New York City to make sure everyone is covered, and the wishes of their families are met.

There was also a statement issued by Eric Adams the New York mayor saying the city is grateful for rapper Cardi B because she is a real superstar on and off the mic for helping out with financial support to families of the victims.
