Cardi B's latest rant on social media about the release of her highly-anticipated sophomore album has fans theorizing that she was throwing shade at Megan Thee Stallion. When one user on X (formerly Twitter) argued that Cardi's project has to release during the summer months, otherwise it won't be as successful, she downplayed the success of the albums dropping right now. Megan released her self-titled project back on June 28.
“Please tell me which album been doing good this summer? Since you got your degree and act like you f*ckin know everything,” she replied. When fans ran with the idea that the statement was a shot at Megan Thee Stallion, Cardi quickly fired back.

“Shady wat b*tch?” she clapped back at one user in a since-deleted post. “It’s the f*ckin truth albums are not performing as good in the summer as the ones dropping in the other seasons …The music traffic is insane, there’s thousands of songs releasing and you can’t barely get placement for more then 2 weeks because of so many dropping at a time is STATISTICS… unbend your wrist and think wit your brain not everything is messy and shady weird ass.”
