JUST IN: Cardi B Break Social Media Silence To Send Clear Message On Faith in State Of Hip Hop As Nicki Minaj Exposes Thee Megan Stallion on Rihanna


Cardi B has shared her thoughts on Hip Hop culture, revealing that she is optimistic about it despite widespread concerns.

During a chat with The Hollywood Reporter that went live on Friday (February 9), the “WAP” hitmaker talked about the music business and the current shape of the branch within which she operates

“People keep saying like, ‘Oh, the state of Hip Hop is bad right now — blah, blah, blah,’” the 31-year-old began. “I don’t think it’s bad right now; I just feel like people just don’t know what they want.

“I feel like social media is running too much, so I just feel like just keep doing you, fuck what people got to say.”

Last month, Cardi B’s vodka-infused whipped cream brand unveiled its collaboration with the Museum of Ice Cream in the lead-up to Valentine’s Day.

In an Instagram post from late January, Whipshots announced that the partnership will feature an exclusive dessert cocktail. The post featured a promo shot of Cardi B wearing a satin pink mini dress while holding the sweet treat.

“STRAWBERRY WHIPSHOTS + ICE CREAM? Talk about a match made in bougie heaven!” the caption read. “Our newest flavor is finally here to bring some sexy to your sip (or bite!), and we’ve partnered with Museum of Ice Cream to celebrate!”

In a press release shared via Business Wire, the CMO of Whipshot’s’ parent company explained that the latest flavor is one fans have been asking for since the product first launched in 2021.

As for the Museum of Ice Cream, the partnership was a no brainer.

“We are constantly seeking innovative ways to enhance visitors’ experience at Museum of Ice Cream and create unforgettable moments for them,” the company’s chief marketing officer said.

“This collaboration promises to infuse our locations with a burst of creativity, allowing guests to immerse themselves in exclusive, tasty drinks co-crafted with Whipshots and Cardi B, ensuring a truly enjoyable and unique experience for everyone who walks through our doors.”

Nicki Minaj Says Megan Thee Stallion ‘Wanted a Rihanna Moment’ After Being Shot

The rapper also defended herself as the cemetery where Megan’s mom is buried ramps up security due to potentially unhinged Barbz.

On the fifth day of Nicki Minaj’s intense fixation on Megan Thee Stallion following a jab the “Savage” rapper likely threw Minaj’s way on her latest track, Minaj invoked Rihanna to claim that Megan tried to force sympathy for herself as a victim of violence. She also refuted that she has encouraged her fans to approach or desecrate the gravesite of Megan’s late mother.

The Texas cemetery where she’s buried has reportedly enhanced security and informed local police of the risk it faces as Nicki Minaj fans may have encouraged each other to disrespect it.

Speaking in a recent X space with her fans, Nicki Minaj stated that Megan Thee Stallion took legal action against Tory Lanez because she wanted “a Rihanna moment.”

Rihanna achieved more fame and commercial success after she opened up about the physical abuse she was suffering in the hands of her then boyfriend, Chris Brown.

While Chris Brown was “cancelled,” Rihanna became endeared to many music lovers because of the physical abuse on her.

Nicki Minaj claimed that Megan Thee Stallion was desperately chasing the same “moment” with her recent saga with Tory Lanez.

She said, “This is so obvious. She [Megan Thee Stallion] wanted a Rihanna moment so bad.

“But here is the thing, Rihanna is known for just being herself; you-get-what-you-see, you-see-what-you-get type of vibe.

“So, Rihanna never would milk something. You can tell she couldn’t wait to move on with her life.”
