Cardi B Fires Back At People Calling Her A “Flop”
Cardi B Responds To People Calling Her “Flop” & “Irrelevant” During Her Nine-month Break From Music
Cardi B took a break from releasing music after the success of Invasion of Privacy, her debut album and critics started pushing narratives, claiming that she was being shelved by Atlantic Records and was an overall flop.
She however came back to the music scene with ‘Wap’ featuring Megan Thee Stallion that has been topping charts since it dropped. The Grammy Award winning rapper has now addressed the claims that people have made about her, during an interview with SiriusXM radio.
“Throughout this [break] people was making rumors, like, ‘Oh, she’s having problems with her label, her label is shelving her, her label is tired of her, they’re getting more female talent,’ and then it’s like, no, they’re never tired of me. That’s one thing,” Cardi said.
She goes on to explain that, because of the pressure placed on her to continually release new music, she just needed to take some time to make something that she was actually proud of. She also addressed the people calling her a flop.
“There are male artists who will go two years without putting out a song and [the fans] don’t be like, ‘oh, you’re irrelevant, it’s over for you’. Me, I didn’t put out songs for nine months and it’s like, ‘oh, she’s irrelevant, she’s over, she’s a flop, we told you that’.”
“And I’m like, yo! That type of shit started to get to me but it’s like, I’m not gonna let that shit get to me to the point that I’m going to put out a song that I’m not really in love with.”
