Cardi B has made her return to social media after deactivating her accounts last week. The “WAP” artist took a break from social media after clashing with a few of her fans on Twitter.
Members of the Bardi Gang were upset over Cardi B’s absence from the Grammy Awards ceremony. This resulted in a few comments toward the superstar’s children, which didn’t go unnoticed by Cardi.
“I’m deleting my Twitter On God I hate this fu**ing dumb*** fan base,” Cardi said at the time. “You got the slow dumba***s dragging my kids all cause y’all [thought] I was going to the Grammys and I didn’t the fu**?.”
Shortly after the disagreement, Cardi B explained her decision to delete her Twitter account on Instagram live.
“Why would I show up with one nomination?,” the rapper questioned. “And I lost it anyways, so you wanted me to go to the Grammys, lose an award, and me just be there smiling like, ‘That’s great, that’s great’. Like, come on now my ni**a.”
