Cardi B attempted to contextualize the viral video of her yelling at a pedestrian.

Cardi B has explained what was happening in the viral clip of her seemingly yelling at a pedestrian in New York City. Taking to X (formerly Twitter) on Monday afternoon, she explained the context behind the video and fired back at users criticizing her online. “Why you touching their sh*t,” she says repeatedly in the clip. “Why you talking to them like that? They not even bothering you."

Responding to one post featuring the video, Cardi wrote: “Why y’all trying to make me sound bad?? This was July 28th and I was defending them but ok.” In another, she added: “Btches trying to be funny and make this something it’s not but I don’t care. I don’t like when people think they can bully people for no reason.. like how you gonna do all that yelling, hit their car, AND call the cops all because they taking pictures in front of a building?!”
