Cardi B has addressed recent social media tension with producer ATL Jacob, firing back after he appeared to shade her in a re-tweet. The exchange began in late September when a Twitter user questioned double standards around relationships, posting, “So a pregnant single woman can’t have sex, but a single man that’s expecting a child on the way can??” ATL Jacob re-tweeted the question, adding lyrics from Future’s “Perkys Calling”: “These hoes always gettin’ exposed, ain’t got home trainin’.”
Cardi B’s Response to ATL Jacob
Cardi B took the post personally, interpreting it as a dig at her. In a now-deleted tweet, she clapped back: “Pussy ass bitch stop playing wit me or I’m violate you!!! You a whole man and stay shading me when I don’t even know you… a Nikka for you to square up with tho if you really got an issue!!” This response sparked further attention, leading ATL Jacob to clarify his stance in an interview, where he expressed confusion and denied any intent to shade Cardi. Jacob emphasized that he wouldn’t disrespect her because of his friendship with Offset, Cardi’s estranged husband and the father of her children.
Cardi continued to air her frustration in an Instagram comment, accusing Jacob of shading her multiple times and ignoring his previous behavior. “This is [the] third time he said some slick shit about me,” Cardi wrote, adding that Offset had previously confronted him about it.
Cardi B Shuts Down Breakup Publicity Stunt Rumors
The drama surrounding Cardi B has only intensified due to speculation that her breakup with Offset is a publicity stunt. During a recent social media live session, Cardi firmly denied these rumors, emphasizing that using her relationship struggles as PR would harm Offset’s career—and, ultimately, hurt her family.
“Do you really think that my baby dad is going to be like, ‘Yeah, do that. I’m gonna sacrifice my career that worked for so hard, for your…[stuff]?’” she asked. Cardi clarified her intentions, explaining that she would not jeopardize her children’s financial stability or Offset’s livelihood. With expenses like $700-an-hour nanny services and $45,000-a-year school fees, Cardi emphasized the financial interdependence between her and Offset for their children’s well-being.
A Fiercely Independent and Protective Stance
Cardi B is known for addressing her personal conflicts openly, and these recent exchanges reflect her commitment to setting the record straight. From defending herself against ATL Jacob’s perceived shade to shutting down rumors about her relationship with Offset, Cardi continues to assert herself unapologetically. Her focus remains on her family, career, and ensuring her children’s future stability—even if it means addressing rumors head-on.
