The rapper Cardi B made that blatantly evident in a fiery digital dustup with reality star Hazel E., which originated from an off-the-cuff interview comment and quickly transformed into a headline-making, red-hot social media beef chock-full of leaked DMs and genuine emotion.
It all happened after Hazel E, most notably recognized from Love & Hip-Hop, was a guest on the Shirley’s Temple podcast. She suggested that Cardi might have gotten on the charts for exchanging sexual favors, which, let’s say, didn’t sit well with the Bronx-born rapper.
Hazel shared what she said were direct messages from Cardi with hours, and those messages were scalding. The screenshots capture Cardi going HAM in defense of her name with a precisely zero filter, and frankly, the amount of chill in the conversation was at zero.
“Get out of my f### DM. You heard me. You just made a bad business move … Now you need the Migos and Cardi to f### me hahaha for what??”. “Keep my name out your f##### mouth,” Cardi’s alleged DM started, perfectly encapsulating the tone. And she didn’t hesitate to take Hazel to task for keeping her name in the mud, even though Cardi never addressed Hazel publicly. ”Name who I f##### for one track?” but at this point, everyone pays attention to the way I talk, the way I speak,” she fumed before setting the record straight that “the only man I’ve ever been within the industry is my husband,” an apparent reference to Offset.
Cardi also made sure to remind Hazel that the reason she was on Love & Hip-Hop was because Mona Scott selected her “it ain’t my p####,” in her no-holds-barred fashion.
And Cardi went in, calling Hazel a “weirdo” and a “miserable ass b####” and dismissing her for dredging up some years-old claim over her copying a kids’ birthday party theme. “You hate people you don’t even know that you never met,” Cardi wrote, “I can’t even imagine what you do to people you know.”
Hazel shared more alleged DMs in which the two exchanged words, with Cardi defending Offset and the “Press” rapper’s rumored current sweetheart, NFL player Stefon Diggs. Hazel had called Cardi “the demise of yet another man,” an allusion to unproven rumors of Diggs and pink cocaine on a yacht. And messy doesn’t even begin to cover it.
This is not the first time Hazel E has thrown Cardi’s name into the gossip mix. Over time, she’s accused her of everything from helping Cardi get the Bodak Yellow video off the ground to accusing her of ripping off a birthday party. But this time, Cardi snapped back, and the internet had a front-row seat.
Though Hazel loves to throw shade, Cardi does not have any of it. If anything, the leaked DMs suggest that having a megawatt career won’t stop Cardi from rolling up her digital sleeves when her name is on the line.
