Nicki Minaj and Cardi B are once again caught in a messy fight, and this time, things have gone too far. What started in October 2025 as a small argument about Cardi’s new album, Am I the Drama?, has now turned into a full-blown social media war. Instead of keeping it about music, both have been throwing harsh insults and even dragging their families, including their little kids, into the argument. Fans are shocked and upset at how personal and cruel the feud has become.
The drama started when Nicki mocked the sales of Cardi’s latest album, saying it didn’t perform as well as hers. Cardi hit back, and soon the insults got nasty. Nicki made mean comments about Cardi’s daughter, Kulture, calling her “ugly” and a “vulture.” Fans quickly called her out for crossing the line. In response, Cardi fired back even harder, attacking Nicki’s 5-year-old son, known as Papa Bear. She accused him of being “non-verbal” and suggested he might be autistic. Cardi even blamed Nicki’s alleged drug use for her son’s supposed health issues, saying he still walked on his toes and couldn’t spell his name.
None of Cardi’s claims have been proven true. In fact, there’s plenty of proof showing that Nicki’s son is healthy and developing normally. Nicki has often shared sweet moments with him online, showing him talking, playing, and learning like any other child. Back in 2022, Nicki told James Corden on The Late Late Show that her son had started talking and loved copying her words. She also shared how he played peek-a-boo and made her laugh with his funny little tricks. Videos from 2021 and news from 2023 and 2024 also show Papa Bear growing up normally.
Fans from both sides have expressed disappointment, saying that no matter how serious the feud is, involving innocent kids is unacceptable. What was once a rivalry between two rap icons has now turned into something deeply personal and ugly. The feud originally began over music sales and egos, but it has now spiraled into hurtful comments that go far beyond the music world. Both Nicki and Cardi are facing backlash for letting things go this far and for dragging their children into the drama.
