Cardi B is facing flak for seemingly making fun of fast food workers while responding to a troll on X, formerly Twitter.

On Monday, June 3, the singer expressed her refusal to conform to industry or societal norms on the microblogging platform, thanking a fan for defending her against racist critics who don't agree with her “speech patterns.” This in turn led another X user to challenge the WAP singer by asking her to “get off twitter and get in the booth,” which she didn't like. However, Cardi, keeping her calm, engaged with the troll, and her comments here seem to have offended a handful of pop culture aficionados.

Following the aforementioned X user’s advice to get in the booth, Cardi shared she plans exactly to do so, not on his advice but because it’s already on her calendar. Cardi then added for the troll, “Get off your break and make me a cheeseburger,” which some X users found hilarious and others did not. The latter half felt Cardi’s comment was demanding those who work in the fast food industry or any regular job for that matter.


In response, the Bodak Yellow rapper said she wasn't making fun of anyone’s occupation but was merely giving him a taste of his own medicine. “It's not job shaming babes…he told me to go do my job and I told him to do his,” she wrote on the social media platform, allegedly sarcastically adding, “We encouraging each other babes.”
