Cardi B Says She’ll ‘Never Turn Republican’ Following Her Criticism of Joe Biden
Despite criticizing Joe Biden and possibly sitting out the upcoming presidential election, Cardi B calmed some fans’ worries when it came to where her party allegiance lies in the political realm.
“She may have betrayed our country and turned Republican but at least she found a nice tune,” a member of the Bardi Gang wrote on X earlier this week in response to Cardi teasing a track for her upcoming album.
The Grammy-winning rapper replied early Tuesday (June 2), promising that she’ll never take the red pill and join the Republican party. “I will never turn republican lol,” she assured.
The fan responded back, essentially attempting to guilt trip Cardi. “You might be forced to next year since you’re not voting and discouraging people from voting,” they said.
In her May cover story with Rolling Stone, Cardi B slammed President Biden for the United States’ involvement in the Israel-Hamas war, and also criticized his inaction on the economy.
“I feel like people got betrayed,” she said. “It’s just like, ‘D–n, y’all not caring about nobody.’ Then, it really gets me upset that there is solutions to it. There is a solution. I know there’s a solution because you’re spending billions of dollars on any f–king thing.”
After interviewing and endorsing Biden in the 2020 election, it seems like Cardi may be distancing herself from either candidate in 2024. “I don’t f–k with both of y’all n—-s,” she said of Biden and Trump in her RS interview.
On the music side, Cardi B is still working toward the release of her sophomore album; the long-awaited project remains without a release date. Cardi teased another track possibly on the LP earlier this week, which finds her showing off a softer side while sampling Janet Jackson’s “Funny How Time Flies (When You’re Having Fun).”
“Yall like this vibe for CB2?” Cardi captioned the video, which shows her in a car.
Cardi put out some good energy into the universe on X over the weekend when it comes to her proving her haters wrong once again. “I have everything planned, locked, and ready to go. Every thing I said I would do this year, I’m going to do it. Nothing is going to stop me. I proved myself before and I’m going to do it again… now rest,” she wrote.
The clock is ticking, as Invasion of Privacy celebrated its sixth anniversary in April. Cardi has also teased pivoting to release a Spanish album following her sophomore effort.
