    How I robbed, drugged men of their money- Cardi B

    Former stripper turned US rapper, Cardi B has admitted that she drugged and robbed men when she worked as a stripper.

    According to her, she did those things to men in the past in order for her to survive.

    An old video of Cardi B recently resurfaced on social media platforms about how she lured men into coming back to hotels with her and then she would drug and steal from them.

    In her reaction, Cardi B took to her Instagram page to explain reason for her actions.

    She expressed regrets for claims she made in the video before her music career began.

    Cardi B said: “So I’m seeing on social media that a live I did 3 years ago has popped back up. A video where I talked about things I had to do in my past right or wrong that I felt I needed to go to make a living.

    “I never claim to be perfect or come from a perfect world with a perfect past I always speak my truth I always own my shit.
    “Im apart of a hip hop culture where you can talk about where you come from talk about the wrong things you had to do to get where you are. There are rappers that glorify murder violence drugs an robbing. Crimes they feel they had to do to survive.

    “I never glorified the things I brought up in my music because I’m not proud of it and feel a responsibility not to glorify it. I made the choices that I did at the time because I had very limited options.

    “ I was blessed to have been able to rise from that but so many women have not. Whether or not they were poor choices at the time I did what I had to do to survive.
    “The men I spoke about in my live were men that I dated that I was involve with men that were conscious willing and aware. I have a past that i can’t change we all do.”

     

     

  • Lady Gaga defends Cardi B amid Grammy win backlash

    Everyone is stunned by Lady Gaga’s new found love for Cardi B.

    On Tuesday, the Joanne artiste took to Twitter to defend Cardi B, who has faced backlash ever since her historic win at the 2019 Grammys on Sunday.

    Gaga had shared a photo of the two of them chatting and sharing a laugh at the ceremony and praised the rapper for her craft.

    “It is so hard to be a woman in this industry, what it takes, how hard we work through the disrespectful challenges, just to make art. I love you Cardi.”

    She continued, “You deserve your awards. Let’s celebrate her fight. Lift her up & honor her. She is brave.”

    In 2016, Cardi tweeted about the Mother Monster’s influence on her. “When I was a teenager lady Gaga changed my life,” she wrote.

    “She inspired me to be myself & be different.” It only took two years, but Gaga replied “Love you girl” to that exact tweet.

    After posting a number of “thank you” videos on Sunday night, Cardi uploaded then deleted an expletive-laden clip defending herself and her hard work on Invasion of Privacy.

    “You know what, it’s not my style for people to put other people down to uplift somebody else. That’s not my style and that’s not what I’m with and I don’t support that, however I’ve been taking a lot of s–t today,” Cardi told the camera. She wore a black sweatshirt and had her hair down in a braid. “I’m seeing a lot of bulls–t today and I saw a lot of s–t last night and I’m sick of this s–t. I work hard for my mother f–king album”

    Cardi B, Offset back together?

    American rapper, Cardi B and her husband seemed to have settled their long time rift and are back together.

    The couple are officially together as Cardi B moved back to their matrimonial home in Atlanta.

    TMZ reports that the reunion didn’t come without some new rules as Offset had to change his phone number which is going to be strictly for business purposes and family.

    Another new rule will be that Offset is going to be staying away from his ‘groupies’ to prove that he is now truly committed to staying faithful to his wife, Cardi B.

    Recall that early November of last year, Cardi B had released a video via her Instagram page to announce to fans that she and her husband were no longer together.

    ”I have been trying to work things out with my baby father and we are really good friends and business partners and we’ve got a lot of love for each other…things haven’t been working out between us for a long time and it’s nobody’s fault. I don’t know it might take time to get a divorce and I am always going to love him forever because he is my daughter’s father,” the rapper said.

    “I have not met Offset since he had his baby i didn’t know how serious his wedding was… I kind of see things, it took like today to actually see things…some girls will be like I took Cardi B’s nigga, I took his man, but for me, I feel very ashamed… I never wanted a breakup or someone to say fuck it and have a divorce,” she said.

     

    When asked If she had contacted Cardi B, she said she is yet to do that.

     

     

    “I’m not here to break up her family or mess up what she has going on with her husband and i am very sorry this is happening and I am very sorry I didn’t think of my work as the young lady… I know she and offset do have love for each other,” she said.

     

     

    Cardi B shared the sad news of her separation from Offset on her Instagram page.

     

    According to her, they had fallen out of love, hence the decision to call it quits.

     

    ”I have been trying to work things out with my baby father and we are really good friends and business partners and we’ve got a lot of love for each other…things haven’t been working out between us for a long time and it’s nobody’s fault. I don’t know it might take time to get a divorce and I am always going to love him forever because he is my daughter’s father,” she said.
