Recently, Kanye addressed the topic again during the recording of an unreleased documentary, reaffirming his belief that Cardi B is an Illuminati “plant”, insinuating that she does not write her own lyrics and is only there to create an image of ignorance. He also claimed that she was put in this position to intentionally replace Nicki Minaj.
The two artists collaborated on the hit “Hot S**t” in July last year. In an interview with Zane Lowe, Cardi B confirmed that her rap verse was about the drama involving Kanye West, his ex-wife Kim Kardashian and her then-boyfriend, Pete Davidson. She explained that Kanye had given her this verse months earlier when he was under intense media coverage due to events in his personal life.
