Cardi B hit back after an alleged prankster called Child Protective Services to report that her three children were in danger.
“So I wanna make this very f—ing clear and I can’t even breathe right now,” the rapper, 32, said in an Instagram Live on Monday, October 21. “Motherf—ers have taken s— too f—ing far when you mess with my f—ing kids.”
The Grammy winner said that representatives from CPS had visited her home after the alleged prank call.
“For the Child Protective Services to come to my f—ing house?” she said. “Not my house, my gated mansion at 11 p.m. while my children are sleeping because there’s an anonymous call that there been going on that my kids have been getting abused and beaten. Are you f—ing dumb?”
Cardi filmed the video from a hospital bed, noting that she’s been sick for days and has been receiving treatment since Saturday, October 19.
“This is when the pranks start getting too far. You f—ing a——s think that s— is funny and it’s not funny,” she added before threatening legal action against both CPS and the alleged prankster. “We’re the only colored people in my neighborhood completely and for motherf—ers to pop up in my house with cops and child protective services because you motherf—ers wanna do an anonymous call involving my children … I promise you this, I’m gonna sue CPS for f—ing coming to my house at whatever the f— time it is. [I will] sue the person that did this anonymous call.”
The “Bodak Yellow” rapper went on to say that she plans to hire a private investigator to find out who made the call.
“We don’t play that s—. My kids live great,” she said. “My kids have never been touched, never gotten hit no matter how annoying they are. I never hit my kids.”
Cardi shares her three kids with ex Offset. She filed for divorce from the Migos rapper, 32, in August after six years of marriage. The estranged duo welcomed their third baby, a girl, in September. They previously welcomed daughter Kulture, 6, and son Wave, 3, in 2018 and 2021, respectively.
While Cardi and Offset, also 32, are no longer together, Cardi claimed that her ex would “beat up” the person responsible for calling authorities on their family.
“If you’re a boy, my baby father is gonna beat you the f— up. If you’re a woman, me and Hennessy are gonna beat you the f— up because you playing with my motherf—ing kids,” she said, referencing her sister, Hennessy Carolina. “Not everything is a f—ing joke. Not everything is a f—ing prank.”
