Vietnam

The clip, reposted by Live Bitez, sent fans scrambling for what could be her next move, aside from dropping her fourth baby in the upcoming months. “I love Cardi bruh… that second slide is really how all races in NY act too lmfaooo,” one user wrote as another chimed in, “I already know she has more surprises lol and I can’t wait!!!! She’s been sleeping for 7 years lol you really think she’s done. NOPE!”

The cryptic video came after one of the ugliest stretches yet in Cardi and Minaj’s decade-long feud. What kicked off with Nicki throwing shade at Cardi’s new album, Am I the Drama? — which still debuted No. 1 on the Billboard 200 and went platinum its first week — quickly spiraled into personal digs and even jabs to each other’s children.

While promoting her own upcoming project 2026 album NM6, Minaj mocked Cardi’s iTunes price point, called her “Barney B” and “Barney Dangerous,” and twisted lyrics from “Magnet” into taunts about surgery, her current pregnancy, STD’s, and her new boyfriend Stefon Diggs. At one point in their feud, she even implied she’d “kick” Kulture’s gums back “into formation” — a line that had Cardi threatening to pull her and “go to jail.”

Cardi clapped back by branding Minaj “Cocaine Barbie,” alleging past drug use and mental health issues, while firing off her own freestyled “ABC” verse: “A B C D E F G / Your man have to snatch PU**Y / Pu**y taste like honey comb / Your bro be touching 12 year olds.” She also reminded Nicki that after 16 years in the game, her competition isn’t with a girl from the Bronx who was in high school when she debuted — it’s with the Drakes, Rihannas, and Taylor Swifts of the world.

What seemed to be the most shocking jab was Nicki calling Cardi’s daughters a “monkey and roach” and even “ugly.” She then posted an alleged sarcastic “apology letter” addressed to Kulture a day later. In return, Cardi fired back with one to Minaj’s son, “Papa Bear” who she called “slow,” deliberately offering anything but an apology. Cardi even admitted that jabs about their children felt “nasty and dark.”

“Don’t give my child no backhanded apology, keep my child name out your mouth,” Cardi doubled-down posted. “Honest truth this goin back and forth about kids is really draining my energy. I don’t wanna keep mentioning kids — it feels very nasty and dark. But the energy you keep giving my kids imma resend back to messenger.”

For now, Cardi says she’s stepping back from the metaphoric “Vietnam,” but if fans know Bardi like they think they do, there’s more surprises in store.
