Cardi B says that she didn't intend to diss Ice Spice at Summer Jam.

Cardi B put a stop to the rumors that she dissed Ice Spice during her set at Hot 97 Summer Jam over the weekend. While beginning to perform the song, “Tomorrow 2," Cardi played the Annie song “Tomorrow," while projecting images of the character twerking on stage. Some fans mistook Annie for Ice Spice and believed Cardi B to be trolling her fellow Bronx rapper.

“For y’all motherf*ckers that’s on Twitter tryna be messy, please, cut the bullsh*t,” Cardi said on Instagram Live after the fact. “I don’t — that’s not me, like come on now. First of all, y’all been wanting me to be messy all things. Y’all wanted me to be messy on the song, y’all wanted me to — nah, come on now. Cut the bullsh*t, please. Get the mop. Y’all being too messy and y’all being annoying.”

As for what fans had been saying, one wrote on Twitter: “Cardi b putting a caricature of ice spice on her set in the same outfit she wore on a ig story when she was rapping tomorrow 2 and singing annie before transitioning into tomorrow 2… shading a girl that showed nothing but love to you." Another wrote: “Cardi b shading ice spice for absolutely no reason smfh…. She knows ice spice is about to take her spot. the insecurities jumped out.”

Cardi does reference Ice Spice in the song "Tomorrow 2" by mentioning her hit song, “Munch (Feelin’ U),”." When Ice Spice heard the song, she was excited to be known by Cardi. “When Cardi mentioned it in ‘Tomorrow 2,’ I was like, this shit is crazy, bro," she told Ebro Darden on Hot 97.
