Cardi B and Nicki Minaj got into a viral spat online without even mentioning one another's names.
It all started on Monday night, September 29, after Nicki Minaj shared a post on X that appeared to reference Cardi B's pregnancy with Stefon Diggs' child. In it, Minaj seemingly called the Grammy Award-winning rapper "Barney B" and claimed she's "falling off the charts wit a big bellyyyy." Of course, Cardi didn't take long to fire back with her own spicy post.
"Nothing more annoying than a bored btch," Cardi wrote. "The power I have.. make these btches come out of rehab everytime. Go to your fcking room. Cocaine Barbie."
"Why you keep bringing up my album??" she wrote in another post. "It’s not the gag that you think it is..You 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 wit and you can’t cuz you doing lower than all of them… I was in high school when you came out wtf is you comparing yourself to me for???"
"Alright now this the third tweet talkin about my pregnancy… like you wasn’t going to different fertility doctors cuz you couldn’t reproduce from all them percs scrambling your eggs," she added. "NOT ALLEGEDLY…Lord protect my babies."
Cardi B and Nicki Minaj continued to go back and forth online. Minaj threw some low blows like "SUR GER REE TO LOOK LIKE MEEEEE" and "Rap like Barney still UGLEEEEE." She even posted a meme of Cardi with Barney's face. The "Outside" rapper responded with her own meme of Minaj's brother, Jelani Maraj, in a pink wig. She even referred to Maraj's child sexual assault conviction, and her husband, Kenneth Petty, who was also convicted of attempted rape.
"Your man have to snatch P*SSY," she wrote. "P*ssy taste like honey comb. Your bro be touching 12 year olds."
Nicki Minaj and Cardi B's beef has been going on for years now, and it doesn't seem like it's going to end anytime soon. The two superstar rappers began bickering once again shortly after Minaj teased the release date for her next album. See what else they had to say below.
