Pardi has had enough.

The rapper-songwriter (born Jordan Thorpe) felt the venom of staunch Megan Thee Stallion fans (affectionately called #Hotties) after she released her latest song, ‘Cobra,’ in which she asserted she caught an ex cheating in her house.

After taking to social media to defend himself, Pardi – also known as Pardison Fontaine – is taking his response to wax with the new song ‘Thee Person.’

Sources then claimed that the NYPD were actively looking into the Bad Boy Records founder.
