In the world of celebrity relationships and rivalries, every move is scrutinized and dissected by eager fans and media outlets alike. The ongoing drama between musicians Ice Spice and Lotto has taken center stage once again, with Cardi B stepping into the fray and adding her own spicy commentary to the mix.

At Hot 97’s Annual Festival held at the prestigious UBS Arena, Cardi B delivered a headline-worthy performance filled with surprises and guest appearances.

The shade-throwing began with Cardi B’s clever choice to kick off her performance with an intro that sampled the song “Tomorrow” from the iconic 1982 film “Annie.” This intro, featuring a character known for her vibrant ginger-colored hair, seemed to allude to Ice Spice’s signature hairstyle, sparking speculation among fans.

Further fueling the fire, a mysterious anime image flashed on the Summer Jam screen during the performance, bearing an uncanny resemblance to Ice Spice herself. The image, depicting a woman with striking similarities to Ice Spice’s iconic persona, was a deliberate inclusion by Cardi B, stirring up even more speculation and adding fuel to the ongoing feud.

Cardi B’s actions seemed to align her with Lotto, subtly taking sides in the Ice Spice versus Lotto feud. By incorporating these subtle jabs into her performance, Cardi B not only entertained the crowd but also sent a clear message to Ice Spice and her fans.

Accusations of style copying have only added fuel to the fire, with Lotto being accused of emulating Ice Spice’s fashion choices. While some fans argue that imitation is the sincerest form of flattery, others see it as blatant plagiarism.
