Cardi B Responds to Pregnancy Backlash

It’s a major time in Cardi B’s life.

Not only is her music career surging, but she has a wedding and baby on the way.

She’s excited about all the new developments in her life, but some people feel the timing is not good.

In fact, that is why Cardi tried to hide her pregnancy as long as she could.

Here’s what she said to Hot 97 on Ebro in the Morning:

It’s just something that I wanted for me…I don’t like the feeling that people making me feel like a blessing is like a mistake or something. And I really hated how something that was so personal, so private, something that I really wanted to keep to myself, I really hate how people harassed me and didn’t let me breathe for something that I wanted for me.

Cardi also doesn’t appreciate what people are saying about Offset having other children with other women:

I hate the things that certain people say. I see so many women talking about I feel bad for her. Why so she doing that in the height of her career? Why can’t I have both? Why can’t I have both? Why do I have to choose a baby or a career? A family or your career? Why can’t I have both? Why do I have to be in my mid 30s to have a baby? What am I doing wrong? What am I doing wrong?

I’m a grown woman. I’m not 16 or 17, 20 years old, i’m 25 years old. And I’ma say this in the most humblest way, I’m a millionaire. I’m established.

The industry is never promised. But I know if I make the right money move, I’m gonna always have money. I’m getting married. Everybody wanna joke around, oh you the fourth baby mama…but I’m getting married.

Even if so, God forbid we don’t, my man is a great father to his kids. So I will never lose. I’m not having a baby with a deadbeat.

  1. It’s not a good look to be anyone’s fourth baby mama. She has money yes, but that’s still not a good look.

  2. I’m happy for her success, but I’m not going to be blind to the dysfunction just because I’m happy for her success. Offset puts her though a lot. He has three other baby mamas. And it’s not easy being a working, new mother. People aren’t trying to put her down. They just live in the real world and understand how difficult things can be. I wish her the best but if she thinks she’s stressed now, wait until the baby gets here.

  3. This poor girl just doesn’t see the plan this dude had from the jump! Of course the first thing he going to do is knock you u so he can be connected to and your cash forever. I mean this dude has showed you who he is already. A baby, a marriage hell he can’t even be a faithful boyfriend, much less a good husband and father. Talking bout he not having a baby with a deadbeat, he is a loser if he cheating on you and having YOU buying him stuff he is a hanger on, almost a damn fan! good luck boo. smdh The only thing she did say was true she will have no problem taking care of the child as long as she makes good money moves.

  4. Not everyone who is concerned for her is a hater. Some of us really do want her to keep winning. We just see Offset and this pregnancy in another prospective. It’s not easy being a mom and having a demanding career. That’s not hate. That’s reality. Just because you take your kids to work with you doesn’t make it any easier.

  5. For her sake, I hope she knows what she’s doing. I honestly feel she could do better than Offset but whatever. She thinks he’s the best ever for whatever reason.

  6. She just put out a hot album and should have some hot videos and a hot tour this year. This year was practically gift wrapped to Cardi, but that baby is gonna weigh her down eventually. You can already see it happening.

    She’s at her prime and should’ve been ready to tighten up her image and s-x appeal in 2018, not have a baby. What’s a new mother with a big body look like rapping about popping pussies in church?

  7. Like someone already said, being a working mom is no joke. Every woman wants it all but it’s not easy to have it all.

  8. Cardi just needs to keep it real it’s going to be harder can she do it absolutely but it is. She might not want to hear it but having a baby with someone who has multiple baby mamas never ends well just ask Ciara.

  9. Why lie about being pregnant you’re being blessed with a baby and so many women can’t have one… Just stupid too me lying about it
