Cardi B is known for keeping things real with her fans.
During her March 7 stop on the Little Miss Drama Tour in Dallas, Texas, the Bronx rapper took a moment to acknowledge the contributions of Black Americans in the U.S.
“Shout out to my Latinos in the building,” she told the crowd. “But remember, you couldn’t be living comfortably in this country if these African Americans didn’t fight for us, motherfuckers,” she added, drawing loud applause.
She went on to shout out several Latin countries, including El Salvador, Ecuador, Colombia, Peru, Guatemala, Costa Rica, Puerto Rico, the Dominican Republic, and Mexico.
Throughout the tour, Bardi has consistently shown love to her fans. At her March 13 show in Minneapolis, she praised the city for standing strong amid protests against ICE.
“Minneapolis, you are such a strong city. I’ve been seeing what’s going on in the news, and we wanna say thank you for your for your resilience, for your resistance,” she told the packed crowd.
“I don’t know why those motherfuckers came to this state. Y’all n***as is not pussy. I don’t know why they came over here. They must not know how y’all give it up,” Cardi added.
She also called out ICE’s immigration tactics during the opening night of her tour. “Mexicans in the building?” she asked the Palm Desert audience. “Bitch, if ICE come in here we gonna jump they asses. Bitch, I got some bear mace in the back. They ain’t taking my fans, bitch.”
Homeland Security later clapped back at her remarks, referencing her past as an exotic dancer. “As long as she doesn’t drug and rob our agents, we’ll consider that an improvement over her past behavior,” the organization tweeted.
