American rapper, Cardi B has taken to Instagram to share a video of her responding to Hip-hop veteran, Jermaine Dupri’s remark about female rappers on Thursday, July 11.
The Hip-hop veteran, who once dated singer Janet Jackson, was a guest on People TV where he expressed his distaste at the new wave of female rappers.
He was also asked to name his favorite female in the rap game to which he replied;
“I can’t really say. The only reason why I can’t say is because I feel they’re all rapping about the same things, I don’t think they’re showing us who’s the best rapper. I think they’re trying to show?—for me, it’s like strippers rapping. And as far as rap goes, I’m not getting who’s the best rapper. I’m getting like, ‘OK, you got a story about you dancing in the club, you got a story about you dancing in the club, you got a story about you dancing in the club.’ It’s like, ‘OK, who’s going to be the rapper?’ At some point, somebody’s going to have to break out of that mold and just show us?—talk about other things, just rap about other things besides that.”
Cardi B, who was a former stripper, caught wind of the video and felt the need to respond to his comment.
The mother of one addressed the on-going criticism of her sexual lyrics saying,
“I have seen a lot of people sayin’ ‘Nowadays, female rappers only talk about they pussy and shit. And now that Jermaine Dupri bring it up, now I’m gonna say something about it, right,”
“First of all, I rap about my pussy because she’s my best friend, you know what I’m sayin’? And second of all, it seems like that’s what people wanna hear. I ain’t even gonna front, because let me tell you something: When I did ‘Be Careful,’ people was talking mad shit in the beginning, like, ‘What the fuck is this? This is not what I expected. I expected this, I expected that.’ So it’s like, if that’s what people ain’t tryna hear, then, alright, I’mma start rapping about my pussy again.”
