Cardi B didn’t ‘copy’ Nicki Minaj, she’s just a better rapper

Stop being petty, girl

In this "age of female empowerment" we've somehow found ourselves in, it seems Nicki Minaj is the only one who can't figure out how to get over herself long enough to get on board.

In the female rap game, apparently there's no room for newbie rappers to spit feminist bars, but I think Nicki and her fans are just threatened. Especially by Cardi B.

So threatened, in fact, they're now alleging Cardi COPIED Nicki's swag, style, and look in the No Limit music video.

Cardi b being a wanna be nicki in no limit video and releasing her Spanish song as well?…like nicki always does

Nicki even confirmed it by co-signing her commenters' thoughts

I’m glad y’all peeped

But in all actuality, the joke is on Nicki because Cardi's latest hit, "Bartier Cardi" started trending on Twitter literally the next day.

Not a bad way to follow "Bodak Yellow."

Idc what yall say–Cardi BEEN releasing Spanish verses and she BEEN singing and rapping (before Bodak yellow) And I didn't think Nicki had a patent on singing and rapping, or Spanish songs (EVEN THOUGH CARDI GREW UP SPEAKING SPANISH KSKKSSK) or "animation".–y'all be killing me

I guess I just find it funny how soon after collabing with Cardi, on MotorSport with Migos (which they couldn't even record in the same booth) Nicki felt the need to scrape the bin for a jab at a fellow female rapper who's proving to be a better rep for feminism than she ever was.

Try again, Nicki.

We texted our one-night stands to ask when we could exchange Christmas gifts and things got MESSY ?

They were not excited to hear from us

The holidays are great because you get to eat as much as you want, binge drink in front of your parents, and flex on all your old high school acquaintances. But they're also great because they encourage us — in our eggnog induced stupors — to message risky things to all the people we definitely…
