Cardi B is undoubtedly one of the hottest artists on the planet right now. It seems like every little thing she does ends up making a headline of some sort. However, since she stepped out on the scene, it seems like everyone's been trying to pit her against Nicki Minaj. While both parties have denied that they have issues and also hopped on "MotorSport" together, Cardi B has finally come forth to set the record straight about her relationship with Nicki Minaj.

Cardi B recently linked up with Ebro to discuss Invasion Of Privacy and more. The Hot 97 radio host asked Cardi B about her "beef" with Nicki Minaj. Cardi explained that there are no issues with Nicki Minaj and the beef was predominantly ignited by the Internet.

"I feel like fans and people, they really want to see that happen because it's really entertaining. To see people beef is entertaining," she said. "I ain't gonna front, when Nicki and Remy was beefing, everyone was tuning in."

Despite this, Cardi states that she doesn't have time to beef anyone who isn't messing with her man or getting in the way of her money.

"People just want to pit us so much because it's entertainment." She told Ebro, "and I spoke to her before, in person. Just like we talkin' right now, this close to each other."

While many people thought that the reason why her and Nicki didn't end up shooting their "MotorSport" verses together, she explained that it had nothing to do with their beef.

"I heard that she couldn't shoot that day." She said, "People just made a lot of theories of everything and it's just like... What is it that people expect from me to do or say? I already said she's an amazing artist. I already said I paid my respect to her... What do people expect? It's like y'all want me to say something bad."
