Nicki vs Cardi beef hits new low – SA stans weigh in

While the Madlanga Commission hit an unexpected break due to General Khumalo falling ill, the recently refuelled Cardi B vs. Nicki Minaj feud continues to escalate and has taken over the internet. Both stans have their gloves on and are ready to go to war for their fav, but who will emerge victorious?

When it comes to internet battles, very few fan bases come close to the Barbz of Nicki Minaj, who have garnered a reputation for blindly following their favourite MC, although Beyoncé’s Beyhive has made a strong case for the throne, as they, too, have also gone to great lengths to defend their queen. However, Cardi B’s Bardi gang has also emerged as a notable fanbase amid the renewed beef with Nicki, as they have gone toe-to-toe with Barbz, while the rappers throw blows at each other as well.

The almost decade-long rivalry has hit what appears to be a new low, with both rappers going after each other’s family and children. It appears matters have escalated past social media, with Cardi B taking to her X account to pull the “I’ll see you when I see you”card, essentially warning Nicki to sleep with one eye open going forward, as things will get ugly the next time these two bump into each other.

With tensions escalating to this level, some users have expressed deep concern not only over both artists but for the fans as well, as they appear to be just as heavily invested in this feud. To make matters worse, some have resorted to hurling threats at the opposing side, further fueling the concern expressed.
