In a conversation with The New York Times, Cardi B reflected on the music icons who shaped her artistic identity.
She says watching her mother’s Madonna DVDs gave her an early blueprint for pop stardom, while rap legends Lil’ Kim, Foxy Brown, and Trina deeply influenced her bold approach to image, sexuality, and female hip-hop.She also performed Lady Gaga’s Bad Romance at her high school talent show.

EAT! and oh for the slow pink-brained bitches in the back who want everybody to worship that MAGA clown so BAD…
NICKI WAS NEVER EVERYBODY’S FASHION INFLUENCE. YOU HEAR ME?!
Y’all so desperate to make EVERYTHING about Nicki that you completely missed the fucking point. She was talking about the women who influenced her IMAGE, FASHION, AND ARTISTRY. Not who she used to have on her playlist. NOT who y’all think she owes a lifetime achievement award to.
This lady doesn’t dress like Nicki. Doesn’t carry herself like Nicki. Doesn’t express herself like Nicki. Doesn’t even RAP like Nicki. So where the FUCK is this imaginary influence y’all keep trying to force?!
And NEWSFLASH: A lot of people were Nicki Minaj fans at one point. That does not mean they’re obligated to worship her for the rest of their lives. Like Nicki said out her OWN mouth, “PEOPLE ARE ALLOWED TO CHANGE THEIR MIND!!!!!!!!!!!!!” Probably the realest thing she said throughout this whole MAGA era.
So I'ma need y’all to STOP trying to make fetch happen. That’s y’all problem now. Y’all are so busy living in the past, when Nicki was at her cultural peak, that you expect everybody else to stay trapped there with you.
Every conversation gotta circle back to her. Every new female artist gotta acknowledge her. Every compliment another woman receives gotta come with a Nicki Minaj footnote.
THAT'S NOT INFLUENCE ANYMORE. THAT'S Y'ALL DEMANDING CREDIT ON SOMEBODY ELSE'S BEHALF.
And at some point, y’all gotta ask yourselves why you spend more time reminding people who Nicki USED to be than celebrating what she’s doing NOW.
LET'S BE CLEAR.
Thats why she mimicking nicki ? @iamcardib ik nicki somewhere laughing her ahhs out on you.
“ she never mentioned foxy!”
Everyone, we have unlimited internet access. Google is a free source. Cardi has mentioned Foxy as an influence before. Like tf 😭
