The political clouds looming over the sky Stateside have been ever-engulfing lately because no endorsement has come and gone without the nod of controversy. While it may have begun with Taylor Swift and her public statement, in the months that followed, even the littlest birds of Tinseltown found themselves chirping the activist anthems. One of the latest industry buzz-makers swooping into the action was Cardi B, but in a wild twist, she ended up catching flak from none other than Elon Musk. 

Though Cardi B was not exactly losing sleep over the Musk-ed remarks, her fans were not sitting on the sidelines to take the heat either.

Cardi B recently attended Kamala Harris’ Wisconsin rally on Friday where she took to the When We Vote We Win concert stage to highlight the Harris-Walz campaign’s efforts. However, following her appearance in Milwaukee, the Tesla CEO, Elon Musk, turned to X to re-share an outlet’s post, slamming Cardi B after her “teleprompter” was allegedly broken and she had to be given a phone to read. Taking a jab at Harris' campaign, Musk called the rapper “another puppet.”

The singer quickly clapped back on X, reminding Musk that she is the daughter of “two immigrants” who worked hard to ensure she would not end up as the “puppet” he suggested. Rejecting his label, Cardi B proudly reclaimed her roots, explaining that she is a product of “welfare, poverty, section 8,” and the reality of facing a system stacked against her. To top it off with a sharp twist, she even threw in a request for Musk to fix the algorithm for her on X.

While the Harris campaign in Wisconsin already saw name calls for the opposition, with this tip-off between Cardi B and Musk, fans have taken to X to let their support for the rapper known.

Cardi B is not the only artist from Tinseltown who has made her stance crystal clear in the open. Although many stars have gotten their fair share of jabs, Cardi B’s square-off with Elon Musk may have gone a little far and fans knew. Hence, with two sides out in the open, fans saw who the “real puppet” was because more or less everyone was convinced that the rapper had the last laugh, without a doubt.

While mic-drop moments are practically the bread and butter for rappers, Cardi B’s words were no less than fire.

With the fire blazing at full force, X users were found warming their hands nearby. Though plenty blamed Musk's wealth as the source of his indifference, fans were clear in backing the rapper. Safe to say, if X had to declare a winner this time, it would not be a drawn-out debate like the Kendrick Lamar vs. Drake saga since fans are in unanimous agreement that Cardi B "ended" Musk.
