Rap star Cardi B responds to recent fan complaints
Cardi B has responded to fan complaints about her release schedule.
Cardi B finds the complaints of her fans to be demotivating.
The 33-year-old rap star has taken to social media to address criticism of her release schedule, explaining that fan complaints are more of a hindrance than a help to her.
Cardi said on X Spaces: "When y’all complain, it doesn’t make me want to sit down. No, it makes me want to say, ‘I ain’t doing s***. How about that? That’s the type of person I am."
Cardi also revealed that she doesn't put the same energy and effort into all of her projects.
The rap star admitted, too, that she has not "been in the studio" in recent times.
Cardi - who released her last album, Am I the Drama?, in September 2025 - said: "Not everything is going to have the same aesthetic as the other ones. I know I have not been in the studio. I have not been doing all that s*** right now."
Cardi is one of the best-selling artists in the world, but she previously claimed to have been happier before she found fame.
The Bodak Yellow hitmaker doesn't have any money worries these days - but she bemoaned the impact of fame and success on her personal life.
Cardi - who has Kulture, eight, Wave, four, and Blossom, 22 months, with Offset - told CR Fashion Book magazine: "One positive thing is that, my family, whatever they want, they get. Everything that I want to buy, I can get. I don’t have to worry so much about my future.
"One negative thing is that, even though I’m happy, I feel like I was a little bit happier two or three years ago when I had less money."
Cardi previously relished her anonymity, despite her money troubles. But now, she feels as though "the world owns [her]".
The chart-topping rapper - who worked as a stripper, before finding success in the music business - said: "I had less people who had opinions about my life. I felt like my life was mine. Now I feel like I don’t even own my life. I feel like the world owns me."
