Why you keep bringing up my album?? It’s not the gag that you think it is..You been in the game like 16 years.. you need to compare yourself to YOUR peers that started around YOUR time. Rihanna, Taylor swift, Drake…those are the numbers you need to be competing wit and you can’t…

Of course social media has weighed in:

So Cardi B finally admitted that she’s not Nicki Minaj’s peer, and that Nicki is above her.

At least she’s honest🤷🏽‍♂️

So what we learned tonight is that Cardi b doesn’t want to be compared to Nicki Minaj anymore and doesn’t see her as a peer and essentially saying she is beneath Nicki
