I bumped into someone for sure, you know me—I don’t play around like that. But I’ll give you a call later because I’m live right now. I’ll spill all the details then. Can you believe Cardi B was in a shouting match at a party where she was just supposed to slay and have a good time? Well, it turns out the person she was talking about in the live might have been Saweetie. I’m not sure what sparked it, but things got pretty heated and street. Is it about Offset again? You know what? Let’s dive right into unpacking this juicy gossip.
So, Cardi grabbed everyone’s attention at the Oscars party. Firstly, because she showed up with a male companion who wasn’t her husband, Offset. But she was also the talk of the event because she apparently got into it with Saweetie at the party. Cardi herself jumped on Instagram live to spill the tea about her post-Oscars afterparty experience. She confirmed she had a clash with someone, though she didn’t name names, and it seems most likely it was Saweetie, given Saweetie’s tweet shortly after the event: “I’m really just a bad b*tch that minds my business. If you don’t like me, that’s on you and your mama, boo.”
Based on an eyewitness account from someone present at the event attended by both Cardi B and Saweetie, it was alleged that Cardi initiated a verbal altercation. The insider, speaking to Media Takeout, disclosed that Cardi approached Saweetie and began shouting, “What do you have to say now?” or something similar, in a rather confrontational manner. The situation was described as heated and somewhat uncouth, with Saweetie attempting to maintain composure while Cardi continued to escalate the confrontation. Cardi’s behavior was characterized as embarrassing by the source, who noted that Saweetie remained composed without raising her voice. Fortunately, the altercation did not escalate physically, and Cardi eventually walked away after expressing her feelings to Saweetie.
Although some may question the reliability of the source, recent public remarks made by Cardi and Saweetie seem to allude to tension between them. Cardi hinted at encountering someone she disliked during a live session, while Saweetie responded later with a statement implying that she’s unconcerned with others’ opinions. Many believe these remarks were directed at Cardi, despite Saweetie’s attempt to deflect by joking about her appearance when asked to clarify.
This incident isn’t isolated, as Cardi has a history of stirring drama at high-profile events, notably throwing a shoe at Nicki Minaj in a past altercation. Similar incidents have led to widespread perceptions of Cardi as a drama-starter within certain circles.
While the specific cause of the tension with Saweetie remains unclear, speculation suggests it might be related to past rumors of Offset’s alleged infidelity involving Saweetie, who was previously close to Cardi and romantically linked to Offset’s cousin and Migos bandmate, Quavo.
Initially, when the rumor began circulating, I personally found it absurd. I mean, Offset has a history of infidelity with Cardi, but the idea of him betraying her with Saweetie, especially behind the backs of Cardi and Quavo, whom he was incredibly close to, seemed far-fetched. However, with each passing day, the truth appeared to unfold that Offset might have indeed cheated on Cardi with his cousin’s former girlfriend.
This incident evidently caused significant turmoil in Cardi and Offset’s marriage, to the extent that Cardi contemplated divorcing him. An insider close to the situation revealed, “Cardi is not coping well.” Offset has denied the allegations, naturally, and it’s unclear whether Cardi believes him. Regardless, Cardi is feeling deeply embarrassed and appears poised to end her marriage. The strain is just too much.
It’s worth recalling that Cardi previously filed for divorce from Offset amid rumors of infidelity involving another female rapper. Although those rumors were unconfirmed, Cardi eventually reconciled with her husband. However, she made it crystal clear that if she suspected Offset of cheating again, she would leave.
The incident with Saweetie seemed like the final straw, particularly after Cardi posted a cryptic tweet hinting at starting afresh: “Sometimes you just have to say fck it. There are so many things beyond our control, and instead of fretting over fixing or improving them, you have to throw your hands up and say fck it.”
Today, on World Mental Health Day, I’m collaborating with DKNY and NAMI Communicate to share a message: sometimes you have to roll with the punches and start anew tomorrow. It was also reported that this situation caused a significant setback for Migos in Hollywood. Quavo disclosed on The Breakfast Club that personal issues led to the dissolution of the Migos group, and his song “Messi” hinted at the affair, fueling further speculation.
There has been ongoing speculation about the situation between Cardi B and Saweetie, though nothing has been officially confirmed. Recent events have led many to believe that their issues were never resolved. Reports surfaced suggesting that Cardi approached Saweetie, fueling social media speculation that Cardi was venting her frustrations following a previous altercation involving Allet.
Recall Cardi’s public rant where she expressed feeling targeted during a vulnerable time, implying that she was being played with when she wasn’t at her best. It’s understandable why Cardi was upset, especially as Offset appeared to be enjoying himself shortly after their separation was announced. Offset was seen with London Perry and later with Jade at his birthday party, despite denying any involvement with Jade during the event.
Offset’s attempts to explain the situation were met with skepticism, particularly after a video emerged showing Jade being escorted to Offset’s table. The morning after, Jade’s social media posts, featuring Offset’s belongings, further fueled speculation.
Given this context, there’s a perception that Cardi directed her frustration toward Saweetie. When Saweetie addressed the media’s portrayal of their relationship, emphasizing the importance of not being swayed by false narratives, it reflected a sense of maturity and growth among female artists navigating media scrutiny. However, despite Saweetie’s attempts to clarify, lingering tensions and misunderstandings continue to stir speculation within the public eye.
Cardi B’s sister, Hennessy, addressed rumors surrounding Cardi and Saweetie’s supposed feud, urging fans to avoid creating false narratives during an Instagram Live session. Hennessy hinted that there might be a collaborative project in the works between Saweetie and Cardi’s managers. However, some people questioned why Cardi would confront Saweetie publicly if everything was fine between them, speculating that it could be a publicity stunt for their potential project. They noted that despite attending multiple events together in the past, Cardi chose the Oscars as the venue to approach Saweetie.
Regarding Saweetie’s response, sources close to her stated that she intended to maintain her composure and not engage with Cardi’s attempts to instigate a confrontation. Saweetie had previously shared that her father taught her to handle haters by ignoring them, drawing from her experiences of being heavily criticized in high school. She recalled feeling frustrated and wanting to fight back but learned the value of not letting haters affect her happiness. Her father even showed her a Cat Williams comedy tape about the importance of having haters, emphasizing that their negativity can be a sign of success.
Saweetie’s approach to the situation indicates that she’s unfazed by any drama and would rather focus on positive aspects of her life and career. If Cardi did approach her without reason, Saweetie’s response reflects her determination to rise above such incidents.
