The conversation began after Cardi B revealed a divisive new partnership.
Cardi B declared, “Ain’t nobody going broke over here,” after fans questioned her financial situation over a promotional deal with fast-fashion brand Shein.
On Dec. 3, the rapper, 32, posted a new video to Instagram promoting some winter coats from Shein, writing in the caption, “🔥 Shop #SHEINBigSalesDay to snag these 🔥 looks!” and sharing a special coupon code.
Fans were confused about the partnership, such as one who wrote, “Girl you wear Hermes and Chanel not Shein,” spawning a huge debate in the replies.
Some called the video “embarrassing,” and said things like, “Really Cardi ??? SHEIN 😭 girl you’re top tier not SHEIN.”
Others shared support, such as one fan who wrote, “Omg I love this 🙌 she wears fashion nova a lot too! Love a baddie that helps others be baddies on a budget.”
Soon enough, Cardi B decided to set things straight, sharing a recording on X Spaces and photos of text messages discussing a possible tour deal.
During the recording, Cardi B addressed the response to her recent video, saying, “People say that I’m surviving on Shein deals and brand deals…I’m not surviving, baby. Spend like about $3 million in a month.”

She also declared, “As long as my bills is paid, I can buy whatever the f–k I want whenever the f–k I want.”
This makes sense, considering Cardi B’s reported net worth.
“I could buy me a $300,000 watch tomorrow. B—h, I could buy your mother,” Cardi B added, also stating that she has no debt and owns all of her properties.
Fans of the rapper voiced support in the comments, with replies like, “CARDI I LOVE YOUUUUUU IM DYING!!!!!! 🤣🤣❤️,” “Ooooooo snap!!!!!” and “Cardi going in on these folks🫢.”
“Defend her don’t come for her 💯💯👏🏿🔥,” said another.
Many fans eagerly await new music from Cardi B, which she has been teasing for a while now. In her most recent update, Cardi B shared the album will come out sometime in 2025.
