Cardi B, a 26-year-old American rapper, is known for being blunt, saying what’s on her mind and not hiding anything, including her troubled past. She even puts it into her lyrics.
On March 24, she even admitted to her past misdeeds , including working as a stripper, drugging male customers, and robbing them. Cardi B’s recent revelations have left fans stunned, leading to the hashtag #SurvivingCardiB going viral on social media. However, the wave of criticism still outweighs the defense.
Many people believe that because Cardi B is a woman, she cannot be forgiven for her past sins.

Cardi B later commented in many places to clarify that she only said “drop” instead of “drug” but the online community was still not satisfied with her explanation because the phrase “drop them n*ggas UP” made no sense. She also posted many tweets challenging people to destroy her career in an extremely provocative way. It was only when the critical keyword #SurvivingCardiB spread at a dizzying speed that Cardi began to write a letter on Instagram to clarify. After being discovered lying, she immediately deleted it.
Many people have analyzed and found many contradictions in the rapper’s words. In Cardi’s video, everyone heard her clearly say that she took men to the hotel to drug and rob them, but in her letter, Cardi defended herself by saying that those men were her boyfriends and that they were all voluntary and sober.
Many people have criticized why Cardi B admitted to drugging, robbing, and raping men but no organization has come forward to accuse her, even though this is a clip retelling an old story, a crime is still a crime. Cardi B needs to be punished by law.
If Carbi B really did make up a story about her past to gain sympathy from her fans, her previous straightforward and outspoken image would be shattered in an instant. Currently, the female rapper has not made any further moves after deleting her Instagram message, while the wave of boycotts and protests against her on Twitter is growing stronger.
UPDATE:
Immediately after getting into trouble, Cardi B wrote a long letter and admitted her past:
“I just came across social media about my past, the things I did in the past 3 years. A life I had to go through, doing wrong things to survive. I never claimed to be perfect. I always openly admitted all my sins. I am a part of Hip Hop, where you can open up about your dark past. There are many rappers who have the same stains in their lives as me, from attempted murder to doing drugs or stealing… things they had to do to survive.
I never glorified the things I did. I never even dared to put them in music because there was nothing to brag about, and I had absolutely no right to glorify them. I chose to commit crimes because I didn’t have many options at the time. Luckily, I was able to overcome and grow up while many other women were not. The men I mentioned were all men I dated at the time and they were all sober and willing. I have an ugly past that cannot be changed, but we all do, don’t we?”
