Recently, Cardi B came to Tyla’s defense after Joe Budden and many people online called Tyla snobbish and entitled, which Cardi B disagrees with.
Cardi said, “You gotta worry about motherf**kin’ doing a speech, looking good while you’re carrying a motherf**king’ 10-pound f**kin’ [award] in your motherf**kin’ hand. So I just don’t think you understand how f**king heavy those f**kin’ awards are.”
She continued, “Also I met Tyla in person. I’m 5’3″, so I’m already short, and she’s shorter than me. No lie, she’s shaped really beautifully, but she’s very very skinny. Skinny like, Mariah-type skinny. She has to weigh like 109 pounds. So imagine you’re 109 pounds and you gotta carry a 10 f**king award with heels.
“She literally asked Lil Nas X. Y’all are trying to make this into an, ‘Oh, how rude is she? She asked another female artist to hold her award like she’s the help.’ I love Halle but she didn’t even ask Halle to hold the award! She asked Lil Nas X, a man, to hold it.”
She added, “The thing about her, too, that y’all think she acts ‘uppity,’ let me tell y’all something. A lot of Caribbean people and a lot of African people, especially girls… My sister has always been overly confident… over jumpy, over smiley.”
