An AI generated image of Offset’s kids and Cardi B offends the parents.

The tension between Cardi B and Nicki Minaj fans, often referred to as the “Bardi Gang” and the “Barbz” respectively, stems from the highly publicized feud between the two rappers. The feud reportedly began around 2017-2018 when Cardi B’s career started to rise rapidly with the success of “Bodak Yellow.” Fans and media began to pit the two against each other as competitors in the female rap space.

Their collaboration on Migos’ “Motorsport” fueled tensions. Fans speculated about behind-the-scenes drama and perceived slights in their verses and public comments. Now the rivalry between the fans are taking another corner with the rappers’ children being dragged into the beef. Cardi B and Offset respond to a doctored image of their daughter posted online!

Don’t let that fanbase gaslight y’all. This started because Nicki Minaj shaded Cardi B unprovoked, and Barbz took it upon themselves to make “my kids are so smart” as shade to Kenneth Jr.

Cardi clocked it though, “b*tches is old and washed. I’m not checking for them.” pic.twitter.com/e0J9KzHQ3h
