The Bronx-born rapper Cardi B made histrionics with a fiery session on Twitter Spaces, during which she declared that she would be no “Nicki Minaj” to anyone’s “Lil Kim,” aimed directly at her fellow female rappers. But when one social media user, who identifies as Lex Symone, chimed in with some criticism, Cardi didn’t back down, doubling down on her unrepentant position.
It all began during a live Spaces chat when Cardi announced that she’s done being friendly and, in particular, nice to the women in the rap game who, she feels, turned on her in her times of need specifically, her recent pregnancy and the drama surrounding her marriage to Offset.
“I don’t even like saying ‘Cardi is in her villain era,’ but I do feel like I became a supervillain, deadass,” she said frankly, her voice electrified with annoyance and rage. “Like certain things I was avoiding, I ain’t avoiding s###. “You is about to take this dick, b####.
Lex Symone, whose commentary left Cardi displeased, quickly got the business from the rap star. And while the original tweet from Lex hasn’t been released publicly, Cardi’s aggressive response made clear she felt disrespected and misunderstood.
In classic Cardi fashion, she didn’t pull any punches in her response. The standoff was more than just a run-of-the-mill social media feud but was another reminder that Cardi’s online persona is as gritty and unvarnished as her music.
Some fans are standing with Cardi, arguing that her responses are long overdue. Others feel the rapper’s delivery needs a little more polish. But love or hate her, Cardi has always flourished in chaos, and she appears more at ease than ever when embracing it.
This most recent moment is yet another facet of the complex persona Cardi has constructed over time. From chart-topping hits and red-carpet slays to brutally honest moments of motherhood and windows into her marriage drama, she’s built a career on keeping it real, even when it was messy.
And now? She’s fully leaning into her “villain era.” This might mean sharper edges, stricter talk, and fewer filters, and that’s Cardi B for you.
If you’re rooting for her or covering your eyes in horror, she’s not backing down. So secure your seatbelts because if her words indicate, Cardi is not only here to stay but to shake the table.
