Cardi B is poppin’ off on Twitter after an old transphobic video and several old tweets where she calls black women roaches have come to surface. Get the latest inside…
Cardi B is glowing up right now as her track “Bodak Yellow” climbs the music charts and her love life with Migos rapper Offset continues to bloom. But, as we all know, when life is good, folks will come for your happiness.
Folks have been digging through the former “Love & Hip Hop” star’s Twitter timeline and shared a few things she likely didn’t want to see the light of day again.
In a resurfaced the video, Cardi talks about how she’ll seek revenge on a cheating lover. She said she would get her man drunk, have a threesome, and “let a tranny rape him.”

Well, Twitter is big mad at her today about it all, seeing that the word "tranny" is a slur and joking about involving an LGBT member in a rape is No Bueno. Check it:

That's not the only reason Twitter is dragging her today. A Twitter user compiled a thread of tweets where Trinidadian/Dominican Cardi calls several black women "roaches". Many believe she reserves that insult for dark skinned black women:

Check out the full thread here.
Cardi isn't one to hold her tongue, so she has been popping back at everyone who's dragging her on social media. She said she uses the word "roach" to describe anyone (not just black women) and that she used the word tranny before she knew it was derogatory:

She also said she apologized for that video a year ago.
While Twitter users continue to drag her, some of her fans are backing her up as well:
cardi b never said she was your feminist/black/queer icon. she never wore it. she said she was a stripper from BX who don't wanna dance.
