Let it Go

For some strange reason, I feel the need to address this extremely toxic situation. Since we are about to be at war, or someone is trying to start one. Let’s talk about this ongoing feud between Cardi B and Nicki Minaj. First and foremost, I do not have a dog in this fight because I really don’t give a fuck. The truth is, this situation is showing how desperate entertainers are at this moment. You see, it has been recently reported that an A. I R&B singer has been signed for millions of dollars. All of a sudden, Cardi B is promoting her music like they used to do in the 90s and 2000s. This is peculiar these days because most artists think that the only thing they have to do is go viral. No, with a new artist who is not even human on the rise. These artists are running scared. If you haven’t been noticing lately. A lot of artists have been doing shows, posting, and doing live shows on social media. Also, have you guys also noticed how movies have been doubling with coming out lately? Since the bottom is falling out of the government, so is the bottom falling out in the entertainment industry. People are not consuming as much as they used to because it is a fight between getting and paying bills. Supporting movies and concerts is the least of everybody’s worries. Everybody knows that movies will eventually end up on Netflix one and two; only a few artists can sell out arenas. This is also the reason behind that sorry ass Millennium tour I worked at the beginning of the year. Artists are trying to get money when they can. Who would have thought that Patti LaBelle, Stephanie Mills, Gladys Knight, and Chaka Khan would be on one ticket? The business is not booming like it used to, so pulling publicity stunts is at an all-time high. This Cardi B and Nicki Minaj stunt is no different. The only time anyone is paying attention to either of them is when they are fighting each other or someone else. All it took was for one of them to do a diss track. Cardi was the one, and Nicki, of course, fell for it. Now this little beef exposed a lot of things that I will promote her, but the breaking point was the jabs at the babies. Cardi went too far one and two. Nicki should have left her rage at Cardi B; stay with Cardi B. Not only did it show how nasty both women are, but it also exposed the sad reality of both women’s lives. With Cardi, this fight exposed that she fights dirty and for blood. For example, exposing that something could be wrong with Nicki Minaj’s son and it is Nicki Minaj’s fault is dirty work. Also, exposing Nicki being in a domestic violence situation with her husband is heartless, but then again. Nicki came for Cardi B and her situation first. To call someone ugly is one thing, but to attack Cardi’s daughter is another. My question is……what did she think that Cardi was going to do to her? Did she think that Cardi was going to bow out gracefully??? In the end, they both sent apology letters to each other’s children, but the bruises are still there, and a fucked-up fact remains. One, Nicki is being abused by her husband, two, she is on heavy drugs, and three, this was all for nothing. Now knowing the fact that Nicki may have been doing drugs while pregnant. Breaks my heart even more. Either way, the only reason this blew up to begin with is Cardi going back to promoting her album the old school way because the new school way isn’t personable. Take note, new artist, before your stars start falling or even rise. Being personable will always be the answer in selling anything.
