Cardi B has called out her rap rival Nicki Minaj, reigniting their longstanding feud.
Their rivalry has spanned several years and reached a peak in 2018 when they got into a physical fight at an event, though they later declared a truce.
On Monday, Nicki sparked Cardi’s anger by posting a series of disparaging tweets before deleting them. Using lyrics from Cardi’s song “Magnet,” Nicki mocked her. While Nicki’s tweets are gone, Cardi’s responses remain visible.
In one tweet, Nicki wrote: “Fallin off the charts wit a big bellyyyy / RUNNING TRAINS. Barefoot, still smellyyyyy / Still. You. Could. Not. outsell. meeeeee.”
Cardi responded by pointing out that she and Nicki do not see themselves as peers due to their age difference. Cardi B, 32, released her first successful single in 2017, whereas Nicki, 42, had her first hit in 2010, according to the Daily Mail.
Cardi wrote on X: “Why you keep bringing up my album?? It’s not the gag that you think it is… You’ve been in the game like 16 years.. You need to compare yourself to YOUR peers that started around YOUR time. Rihanna, Taylor Swift, Drake…those are the numbers you need to be competing with and you can’t cuz you’re doing lower than all of them… I was in high school when you came out. Wtff are you comparing yourself to me for?”
The dispute started when Cardi announced that her second studio album, Am I The Drama?, had gone double platinum. She also revealed that her LITTLE MISS DRAMA tour will take place at the TD Coliseum, celebrating her accomplishments.
Nicki, in response, shared a cryptic image of an eagle in flight with arms outstretched. Fans noticed that Cardi’s album cover shows her wearing heels with a crow perched on top, leading to speculation that the eagle symbolized “big bird energy” confronting Cardi’s crow. The internet reacted with guesses and theories.
Nicki went further by reposting fan images and adding a picture of three cartoon penguins with zombie-like expressions. Cardi continued the exchange with tweets such as:
“The power I have.. make these btches come out of rehab every time. Go to your fcking room.”
“Cocainne Barbie”
Nicki countered with a freestyle about operations and Rico beefs, while Cardi maintained the confrontation with direct name-dropping.
