Cardi B goes in on her haters.

Cardi B has been having a great few months. She released her critically acclaimed debut album, Invasion Of Privacy at the top of March and followed up with her iconic pregnancy reveal during her Saturday Night Live performance. However, due to her status as a celebrity, she's constantly a target of hate and criticism by users on social media. Whether it's Twitter or Instagram, there always seems to be someone who has something to say about her. However, Cardi isn't someone who allows people's comments to slide; she will clap back. Most recently, she addressed people who critique her for being "ghetto" and simultaneously found a solution for them.

Cardi B is sick and tired of hearing people criticisms especially when it comes to how she speaks. The "Be Careful" rapper took to Twitter to address the fact that people will allow male rappers to speak freely but criticize her for being "ghetto." 

"Why is it that male rappers can speak how they want act how they want but people constantly bash me for it ? Why do i feel like i have to apologize for being who i am ?talking how i talk and being what ya call “Ghetto “ wtff .LEAVE ME ALONE !" She wrote.

She continued to say how every week it seems like someone used to have an issue with her while suggesting that her new level of fame has something to do with it. 

"Every week it seems like I’m in somebody’s mouth .Why was nobody talking about me when i was on love and hip hop ?all of a sudden I’m the reason why the world is such a terrible place .I be minding my business i wake up and boom something about Cardi !i don’t get it," she wrote.
