Renowned American rapper Cardi B, born Belcalis Marlenis Cephus, has affirmed her identity as a God-fearing woman in a spirited defense on X (formerly Twitter).
Responding to a follower questioning whether she saw herself as perfect, the Grammy-winning artist confidently outlined her qualities.
Cardi B wrote, “…I AM pretty face, pretty frame, little feet, rich, and God-fearing.”This declaration comes amidst growing criticism, which Cardi believes is fueled by people misinterpreting her words.
She took to TikTok Live to elaborate on societal dynamics, specifically discussing how men are inclined to date women they perceive as less intimidating.
The rapper suggested that men sometimes opt for women they consider a “6” because such women are seen as more submissive. While her commentary sparked controversy, Cardi maintains that her views were taken out of context.
She continues to embrace her unapologetic persona, balancing her feminist beliefs with her faith. Cardi’s accolades include a Grammy, eight Billboard Music Awards, and fourteen BET Hip Hop Awards, cementing her place as one of the most decorated artists in modern music.
As Cardi B faces the inevitable scrutiny that comes with fame, she stands firm in her convictions, turning challenges into affirmations of her faith and success.
