“There are conscious rappers. But you all not going to them. So you can’t be mad.”
Cardi B and Megan Thee Stallion’s “WAP” has been a flashpoint of discussion ever since it dropped, with conservative pundits and politicians going on a bizarre campaign against the song’s raunchy lyrics. In a recent interview with Apple Music, Cardi reflected on the criticism she receives for her lyrics. She also called out fans who denigrate female rappers for being sexual, but don’t support ones who rap about “woke” topics.

“People be lying,” Cardi said when discussing the topic of sexually explicit rap lyrics. “People will be saying don’t like hoes and they don’t like that p-ssy talk. People love it.”

Cardi is sometimes compared negatively to rappers like Noname or Rapsody, who are known for addressing political issues and community concerns in their music. However, the Bronx MC dismissed the comparison altogether, saying the people who claim they want to hear about “woke” topics don’t support these rappers, either.
