Cardi B isn’t here for comparisons.
The rapper went off on Nicki Minaj fans in a colorful rant for accusing her of copying the “Super Freaky Girl” hitmaker’s style after they recently wore a similar white fur coat and white extensions.
“You mothaf–king fans and bitches are arguing over a coat that I had on for 45 seconds … from my house to my car,” Cardi complained on her Instagram Story Saturday afternoon.
The 31-year-old “Bodak Yellow” rapper, whose birth name is Belcalis Marlenis Almánzar, continued on to say that she only wore the “old ass coat” because her aunt made her in order to stay warm.
“Y’all crying about a f–king old-ass coat,” she added, doubling down. “An archive piece in my f–king closet. Shut the f–k up!”
“I don’t give a f–k about these bitches like y’all be giving a f–k about me,” she claimed, seemingly speaking about 41-year-old Minaj.
“I don’t watch these bitches. Bitches can’t dress to me.”
She further lamented, “Damn, bitch can’t f–king enjoy her f–king life.”
“Y’all crying over an old-ass coat. Suck my d–k.”
Minaj, born onika Tanya Maraj, seemingly caught wind of what her fans, dubbed the Barbz, had said about the comparisons and cheekily responded by sharing a photo of herself in the white fur coat in question on her Instagram feed.
She captioned the post with lyrics from her “Pink Friday 2” song “Barbie Dangerous.”
“B!Ches Jackin,” she penned. “I’m still Queenin.”
Cardi and Minaj have been beefing since 2018, reportedly when Migos added the former as a collaborator on their Culture II single “Motorsport” — without consulting Minaj first, who was already tapped to be on the song.
Things escalated when they got into a physical brawl at the sophisticated Harper’s Bazaar Icons fashion week party in New York City in September of that year.
In September 2023, Minaj’s convicted sex offender husband, Kenneth Petty, was placed on house arrest for 120 days after he threatened Offset, Cardi’s estranged husband, and his life.
Although some are convinced Cardi ripped off Minaj’s look, the mother of two has been rocking fur coats for years.
She made her runway debut at Balenciaga’s fall 2024 show in a bright blue, floor-length faux fur coat.
She later called the experience a “dream.”
In 2019, she sported a vintage Paco Rabanne fur coat at BeautyCon in New York City.
She also proved her love for high fashion in October when she was showered with $500,000 worth of Hermès bags from Offset — born Kiari Cephus — for her birthday.
Meanwhile, Minaj has been serving incredible looks of her own lately, including at the 2023 MTV Video Music Awards — after which her husband and Offset got into the heated exchange.
That night, she exuded confidence in a satin corset worn under a mermaid lace skirt.
Her outfit, which was all pink, was completed with a stunning veil made by Dolce & Gabbana.
For her debut live performance of “Last Time I Saw You” at the VMAs, she slipped into a black mesh dress bedazzled with black rhinestones.
She wore black lingerie underneath to keep things appropriate for TV.
