Cardi B took to Twitter to blast a user who shared a fake article about her father going to prison for rape.

When it comes to her family, Cardi B doesn't play around. Once, she was out and about with her father when paparazzi approached her with a camera and tried to get her to do a quick interview. The rapper became irate because she does her best to keep her parents out of the media. Cardi said they didn't ask for fame, so she wants to protect their privacy as much as possible. So, when a recent article began circulating alleging that her father was a rapist, it didn't take long for Cardi B to clap back.
