Cardi B has quit Instagram. The move came the day after she picked up Best Rap Album at the Grammys. Shortly before the account went offline Cardi posted a video in which she appeared to be responding to criticism of her Grammy win. A copy of the video, captured by a fan account, can be seen below.
“It’s not my style for people to put other people down to uplift somebody else, that’s not my style and that’s not what I’m with and I don’t support that,” Cardi says in the video. “However, I been taking a lot of shit today, I’m seeing a lot of bullshit today and I saw a lot of shit last night. And I’m sick of this shit. I worked hard for my motherfucking album.”
Later in the minute-long clip Cardi explained how much work she put into recording Invasion Of Privacy as well as referencing the 2018 Grammys. “I remember last year when I didn’t win for ‘Bodak Yellow,’ everybody was like, ‘Cardi got snubbed, Cardi got snubbed.’ Now this year’s a fuckng problem?” she said.
