The long-rumored tension between Cardi B and Nicki Minaj has just escalated to a whole new level—and now, Cardi is done being quiet.
In a bombshell revelation, Cardi B has officially announced that she is boycotting Nicki Minaj, refusing to attend any music awards, festivals, or collaborations where the “Barbie World” rapper is present. The internet is exploding, and fans of both artists are taking sides in what may be the most heated female rap feud of the decade.
But what sparked the latest fallout?

🔥 The Incident That “Everyone Was Hushed About”…
According to insiders, the final straw came during a major backstage incident at an international music awards show, where both stars were scheduled to appear. Reports suggest that Cardi B’s team overheard “intentionally offensive remarks” made by someone in Nicki’s circle—remarks that were allegedly about Cardi’s child and her family.
Though Cardi’s manager initially stayed silent, trying to avoid a media frenzy, multiple eyewitnesses say Cardi was “visibly furious” backstage and had to be physically held back. One source described the tension as “worse than the shoe-throwing incident from 2018.”
The moment was swept under the rug—until now.
“I’m not playing industry games anymore. If you disrespect my blood, I’m done with you. Period,” Cardi reportedly told a close friend, who leaked the quote on social media.
Fans Are Divided, and the Industry Is Shaken
Since Cardi’s informal announcement, hashtags like #CardiVsNicki, #BoycottBeef, and #RespectIsRespect have been trending non-stop. Nicki Minaj has not responded publicly, and her team has refused to comment, fueling even more speculation.
Meanwhile, artists and producers who’ve worked with both are now caught in the middle, worried about choosing sides in what’s becoming an industry-wide standoff.
One thing is clear: Cardi’s decision to speak up has sent shockwaves through the music world—and everyone is waiting for Nicki’s next move.
