Cardi B fears public attention, both – negative and positive as the rapper told Rolling Stone why she pauses to delve into her personal life in her music.
She said, “I really want to talk about the life changes that I’ve been dealing with the past six, seven years,” adding, “but then it’s just like, I feel like people don’t deserve to know because people use my pain against me.”
The Grammy-winning artist, known for her candidness and willingness to engage in political discussions, has revealed a growing apprehension about sharing her thoughts and feelings openly, especially in her music, marking a significant shift from her previously unbridled self-expression.
The WAP rapper said, “When I was off social media and nobody knew what I was doing, I was at peace a lot. But what am I going to do? Never post or never work again because that’s peace? No,” adding “I don’t ever want my daughter or my son to ever give up on something because they can’t take the pressure of what people say about them.”
The rapper has had a tumultuous relationship with her husband, Offset, to whom she tied the knot in 2017.
The pair, who have been married for nearly six years, share two young children: daughter Kulture Kiari, and son Wave Set, and have been navigating an on-again, off-again romance.
