Cardi B is clearing her stance on the ads showing up on her socials.
The rapper, 32, posted a voice recording to X on December 3, explaining her recent financial moves after online speculations left her seemingly agitated.
“People say that I’m surviving off Shein deals and brand deals — wait, hold on,” she said. “I want to let y’all know I could wake up tomorrow, sign a contract and have half of $65 million — or half of $70 million — in my bank.”
The rapper doubled down on her financial stability, saying she “spent like, about $3 million in a month.”
The WAP rapper also clarified that this year is her “off year,” as she didn’t want to sign a tour deal until she announces her album because she’d get a higher amount then.
Cardi then addressed a screenshot she posted of a conversation from September, which suggested she could be paid $1 million per show or $65 million total.
The other person, who remained unnamed, alleged that she would be paid “half the money upfront upon signing the contract.”
The clapback comes in response to trolling over a sponsored Instagram ad with Shein, which showed her modeling a lineup of fur coats.
Earlier this week, Cardi also teased new music in a video shared with her top Spotify listeners in honour of the streaming service’s annual Wrapped campaign.
