Cardi Just Made Biggest Mistake Of Her Career|Joe Budden Makes DISTURBING Promise To Her | HO
Hey everyone, how’s it going? If you’re Cardi B, it looks like you’ve been having a wild time on Twitter lately—going off on Joe Budden, calling out a civilian named Paris, and more. But seriously, what’s up with Cardi body-shaming people and these braids? I’m a bit confused.
So here’s the tea: Cardi B and Joe Budden had a Twitter Spaces showdown. On his podcast, Joe Budden mentioned that Cardi might never release another album and could end up being just a feature artist. Cardi, who has been working on her new album, didn’t take too kindly to this. She’s had a few singles out and her name is still buzzing, but it seems like comments about her album hit a nerve.
Now, I don’t usually tune into Joe Budden’s podcast, but from what I’ve heard, he’s generally been supportive of Cardi. Joe’s job is to critique music and artists, which includes commenting on everything from their image to their album performance. Cardi’s reaction seemed pretty intense, especially given Joe’s usual supportive stance.
During the Twitter Spaces, Cardi went off, telling Joe Budden to keep her name out of his mouth. She even made some strange claims about Joe being high on “Coca-Cola” and getting a lap dance while on it. This left me scratching my head—can you even smell Coca-Cola on someone’s breath? Is this a flex? It all seemed a bit disjointed to me.
Joe Budden responded by saying he’s never done Coca-Cola and never received a lap dance from Cardi. Cardi then tried to backtrack, saying she never made those claims. It was a bit of a mess. Joe Budden, being the Virgo he is, decided to keep quiet after this and vowed never to talk about Cardi again. This might not be the best move for Cardi since having a major platform like Joe Budden’s talking about you can be beneficial for visibility.
Cardi’s strategy of calling out Joe Budden and trying to get his platform to stop talking about her seems like a misstep. In the crowded rap scene, exposure is crucial, even if it’s not always positive. Cardi’s approach reminds me of the old media blitz days where any attention was good attention, but times have changed. Now, going viral isn’t as impactful unless it’s for something truly noteworthy.
With the way things are now, it’s hard to see how telling Joe Budden to keep her name out of his mouth helps Cardi in the long run. She’s adopted a similar approach to the Kardashians, but I’m not sure it’s the best fit for her current situation.
Anyway, what do you think? Did Cardi handle this the right way, or do you think she should have approached it differently? Let me know your thoughts in the comments. Catch you later!
