The back-and-forth kicked up after Nicki Minaj posted a long series of tweets that again targeted Cardi B. In the first two messages that set the tone, Nicki taunted Cardi about fertility and relationships, suggested court records would surface, and celebrated supposed legal wins. She followed with more tweets aimed at Cardi’s family and used dehumanizing language about Cardi’s child and sister. Those posts sparked immediate outrage and put social media on high alert.
Cardi moved quickly. She told Nicki to log off and focus on her son’s birthday, then revisited their history by sharing a throwback image from a past confrontation. She denied claims about having a seizure, accused Nicki of ducking face-to-face smoke at major events, and openly demanded a location to settle things, writing variations of “drop the addy” several times.
Cardi then escalated her response by defending her daughter Kulture, vowing that children were off limits and warning Nicki to keep her family out of it. She posted additional tweets alleging drug use, called out Nicki’s commentary on parenthood, and insisted Nicki never keeps the same energy in person. Cardi also rejected references to Roc Nation and fired off personal accusations about family members on Nicki’s side, which remain unverified.
In the middle of the chaos, Cardi shared screenshots she said showed past discounted album bundles from Nicki’s releases, arguing that Nicki benefited from low-cost promotions and bonuses. Cardi used those receipts to counter jabs about sales and chart talk, insisting she never begged for favors or phoned anyone to smooth things over.
Nicki kept tweeting through the night. She repeated threats of lawsuits, taunted Cardi about planned pregnancies, and amplified insults directed at Cardi’s family. Later, she shifted tone in two posts. In one she said fertility struggles should never be used as a punchline and that women facing those issues deserve compassion. In another she told followers not to listen to certain track, calling it harmful and spiritually negative.
Both artists referenced each other’s children and parents, which turned a musical rivalry into a personal and painful exchange. Many fans called out the language about kids, arguing that family should remain off limits regardless of industry beef.
Nicki and Cardi’s tension dates back years, peaking during a New York Fashion Week incident in 2018. Since then, quiet periods have been followed by new flare-ups on social media. This up-to-date eruption started with Nicki’s opening tweets and moved into a long thread of counters from Cardi, including location challenges, personal allegations and receipts about album bundles.
By the end of the night, both names were popular and timelines were flooded with screenshots. No in-person meetup happened, and neither side offered an apology. What remains are harsh words, hurt families and a fan base split between calling for peace and choosing sides. As always, the real question is whether any of this energy will redirect back to track.
