Cardi B Fires Back at Elon Musk And Defends Her Journey as an Immigrant Daughter
Cardi B has fired back at Elon Musk after he criticized her on social media, mentioning her struggles and the challenges faced by many in America.
The exchange took place on X, formerly known as Twitter, where Musk shared his thoughts about the Kamala Harris campaign, suggesting a lack of authenticity and genuine empathy.
His tweet read, “Another puppet who can’t even talk without being fed the words.
The Kamala campaign has no authenticity or true empathy.”
In response, Cardi B did not hold back. She asserted her identity and experience, stating, “I’m not a puppet Elon.
I’m the daughter of two immigrant parents that had to work their asses off to provide for me!
I’m a product of welfare, I’m a product of section 8, I’m a product of poverty and I’m a product of what happens when the system is set up against you.
But you don’t know anything about that.
You don’t know not one thing about the American struggle. PS fix my algorithm.”
Cardi’s response reflects her journey from humble beginnings to becoming a global superstar.
Born Belcalis Marlenis Almánzar in the Bronx, New York, she grew up in a challenging environment.
Her parents immigrated to the United States from the Dominican Republic and Trinidad, facing significant hardships to provide for their family.
This background has shaped Cardi’s perspective on social issues, including poverty, housing insecurity, and the challenges that many American families face.
Her mention of “welfare” and “section 8” points to the government assistance programs designed to help low-income families afford housing and meet basic needs.
Cardi has previously expressed her support for various social causes, including the Black Lives Matter movement and health care reform.
Nigerian pastor Dolapo Lawal spoke on the reality of living abroad and what people do not see online.
He shared the insight that many Nigerians who relocate to other countries mainly move there for survival and not necessarily for wealth.
“How many people you know that are in the UK who are billionaires? They go there to survive. They don’t go there to be rich. All of them are going there to do care jobs. They’re going there to survive.”
He then shared that it is better to be a billionaire in Nigeria and stated that success can sometimes come easier at home than relocating abroad.

She also stated that she has evidence against Frank, including receipts from hotels and places where he allegedly met with his dates.
Popular singer Shakira and Nigerian singer Burna Boy have reportedly released “Daidia,” a song linked to the 2026 FIFA World Cup.
It was also noted that the two artists are expected to perform during the event, and the song for the occasion has now been released.
