The news spread like wildfire when Cardi B started a fight with Nicki Minaj at the Harper’s Bazaar Icon Party.

The two rappers attended the party last month, when suddenly the “Bodak Yellow” rapper flung her shoe at Minaj and lunged at her. Of course, social media flooded with videos from the fight.

Cardi B posted on Instagram following the brawl. She wrote she let a lot of trash talk from Minaj slide, but when the latter started to “make comments about [her] abilities to take care of [her] daughter,” all bets were off.

“For a while now [Minaj has] been taking a lot of shots at me,” Cardi revealed to W Magazine recently. “I spoke to her twice before, and we came to an understanding. But she kept it going.”

“I was going to make millions off my Bruno Mars tour, and I sacrificed that to stay with my daughter,” Cardi continued. “I love my daughter. I’m a good-a** f**king mom. So for somebody that don’t have a child to like that comment? So many people want to say that party wasn’t the time or the place, but I’m not going to catch another artist in the grocery store or down the block.”
