Cardi B‘s faithful fans, affectionately called #BardiGang, rejoiced when the rapstress took to ‘SNL’ this past weekend to finally reveal she was indeed with child (as had been rumored for weeks).
In a performance of her soon-to-be-hit tune ‘Be Careful,’ found aboard her April 6th released debut album, ‘Invasion of Privacy,’ the Grammy nominee donned a form fitting white dress to show off her baby bump – a feat that let the news announce itself (click here to watch if you missed it). And, while her fans flooded her social media handles with well wishes, detractors certainly were singing different tunes.
In fact, according to the rapper herself, mostly women took to her Twitter and Instagram handles to slam her for opting to get pregnant before her career could reach its height. When quizzed about the backlash during a recent sit down with Hot 97, Cardi did not mince words about her disappointment for the ongoing criticism.
Hear exactly what she said inside:

her explanation & response ignites long before the 32:04 mark — but at least you all are beginning to time stamp your videos. thanks for finally taking my repeated advice. how about you start TRANSCRIBING as well. would totally increase your comments & clicks throughout the work day.
Cuz u have to prove and we need fresh p**** and not a baby who cry ! Ok cardi b go back to the baby ahahah
Cardi just don’t get it. Many women have babies and a fruitful career but as a female rapper marketability is a factor who want to see a mother rapping about gangs, clubs, haters, twerking when a baby at home waiting for its mother. She constantly proves she is really uneducated and stupiddd
