A tweet from Cardi B almost a year ago has come back to haunt her.
Twitter is currently going off on the “Bodak Yellow” rapper for a tweet that she sent out in November last year. “B**ch I ain’t had to search hard your main pic is wild Muck .You just Ugly you look like a BURNED ROACH,” she wrote. Seems someone went digging found the tweet and retweeted it and it went viral. Some folks thinks that she was borderline racist by calling a black female a roach.
Some fans are now threatening to boycott Cardi B music even though she said that she did apologize for the tweet back then. In her defense, she also said that she regularly calls herself a roach and was not being demeaning towards black women by saying it.
