\n\tCardi B<\/a> has almost reached her limit with female rap beef.<\/p>\n

\n\tIn a Wednesday (Oct. 21) chat with followers on X Spaces<\/a>, the rapper addressed chatter online about her calling Madonna, Lil\u2019 Kim, Foxy Brown and Trina her main sources of inspiration growing up in the New York Times Style Magazine<\/a> interview published earlier that day. Clapping back at haters who\u2019d accused her of lying about who actually inspired her or purposefully leaving people out in the interview, she pointed out that at 34 years old, the artists she looked up to as a kid would naturally be different from the more modern ones she\u2019d supposedly excluded from her list (ahem, Nicki Minaj).<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cGo with that s\u2013t with Trim and that white big b\u2014h, don\u2019t do that with me,\u201d Cardi quipped, referring to Gen Z hip-hop stars who grew up with different idols than she did.<\/p>\n

\n\tWhen viewers commented that her remarks would be sure to stir up drama with other artists, the Grammy winner shrugged it off. \u201cI don\u2019t even give a f\u2013k about these b\u2014hes anymore,\u201d she mused. \u201cTo be honest with you, it\u2019s like, I don\u2019t even like beefing with rap b\u2014hes anymore, because it\u2019s kinda boring.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cI wanna be for street b\u2014hes,\u201d she continued. \u201cY\u2019all boring me, for real. Like, I don\u2019t even give a f\u2013k about this s\u2013t anymore. It\u2019s just like, whatever. Matter of fact, I don\u2019t even wanna be for nobody \u2026 I feel like I\u2019m outgrowing a lot of s\u2013t.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tThe Bronx native has had no shortage of feuds<\/a> with other women in rap over the years. She\u2019s famously sparred with BIA, JT of City Girls and, of course, Minaj, both on social media and in the studio. <\/p>\n

\n\tBut while she may be over the drama for the most part, Cardi did drop in a little bit of shade during her spiel. \u201cI hope y\u2019all don\u2019t think that was trying to be shady to Trim,\u201d she clarified. \u201cI love her music, I think she\u2019s so talented. I don\u2019t like the other b\u2014h, though. I don\u2019t give a f\u2013k. B\u2014h, who the f\u2013k you be feeling like? This ain\u2019t no Jim Crow s\u2013t, b\u2014h, shading me and s\u2013t. You don\u2019t even know me.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tThough she didn\u2019t name the \u201cother b\u2014h\u201d in question, her earlier description \u2014 \u201cwhite big b\u2014h\u201d \u2014 led fans to believe that Cardi was shading 24-year-old rising star Sunshine Benzi. Even Benzi seemed to think so, entering the ring on X with pointed posts after Cardi\u2019s Spaces.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201ccall your writer ho @iamcardib,\u201d she wrote<\/a>, followed by<\/a>, \u201chow you changed your face more times than you\u2019ve written a rap? @iamcardib.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tBillboard has reached out to Sunshine Benzi for comment.<\/p>\n

\n\tFans will have to see if Cardi engages with Benzi, but according to the \u201cUp\u201d artist, she\u2019s too busy with her career to keep up with any beefing. She has had a packed schedule as of late, traveling to Milan in September to walk in the Vogue World fashion show. Her single \u201cAH HA\u201d dropped in August and debuted at No. 25 on the Billboard Hot 100<\/a>, following up her 2025 Billboard 200<\/a>-topping sophomore album Am I the Drama?<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cI\u2019m focusing on myself,\u201d she said Wednesday. \u201cThere\u2019s a lot of things coming up, and nothing is gonna stop it \u2026 having money feels too good. Being successful feels too good.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Cardi B has almost reached her limit with female rap beef.
