Cardi B suggests Nicki Minaj seek help in ongoing online feud
The feud between rappers Cardi B and Nicki Minaj reignited on social media this week. Minaj reportedly criticized the sales of Cardi B's new album "Am I the Drama?" released on Sept. 19, which led to a back-and-forth exchange between the two artists.
Cardi B responded to Minaj's comments, questioning why Minaj kept mentioning her album and suggesting Minaj compare herself to artists who started around the same time as her. The exchange included jabs at each other's career achievements and sales figures.
The history of tension between the two dates back to 2018 when a physical altercation occurred during New York Fashion Week. Video footage showed Cardi B attempting to confront Minaj before being stopped by security.
The online spat continued with Minaj mocking Cardi B's appearance and music, while Cardi B responded with comments about Minaj's behavior and past controversies. The exchange escalated to insults involving their families and personal lives.
In a final response, Cardi B urged Minaj to seek therapy and address her unresolved trauma. Minaj, in turn, called for a boycott of companies associated with Cardi B, citing past incidents where she took similar actions against entities supporting her rival.
Minaj has a history of public disputes with other artists, including clashes with SZA and Megan Thee Stallion. These feuds have involved criticisms of music releases, personal attacks, and public call-outs on social media.
