Cardi B is balancing a lot of things in her life: a superstar career, motherhood, and the regular human urge to just go out and have fun every once in a while. Moreover, she recently took to Twitter Spaces to address people criticizing her consistent nights out as of late, especially after she already hinted that she would take it easy on the ragers. Obviously, the Bronx femcee has a couple of reasons for wanting to go out on any given night, whether it's her divorce from Offset or their recently born third child. Specifically, she fought back against the idea that she's being an irresponsible mother by going out so often.
"Yesterday was my last day going out to party," Cardi B said on Twitter Spaces on Sunday (December 1) after critical fans saw footage of her going out in New York City over the weekend. She said that she's only heading out on special occasions. "We been partying hard honey, hard. Having a time, a ball. But let’s have this little talk." Fans felt particularly odd about this given previous promises to cut down on the partying.
Nevertheless, Cardi B had something to say about comments that she's "always outside" or "finally happy that she’s being a h*e." "I feel like it’s men that usually say that," she posited, calling out the double standard that men are afforded to deal with a relationship through excessive socialization. "I’m not being a h*e because after I leave the club, I take this wet a** p***y to my f***ing bed with no d**k to give it to. [...] After you have a breakup, you have to just live a little bit."
In addition, Cardi B posited that going out can help with feelings of depression after a breakup and mitigate the risk of "dumb decisions" like reaching back out to your former partner. "I was just, like, in a state that I didn’t even notice," she said of feeling "restricted" in her marriage before addressing her status as a "real provider" and not a "fake Instagram model mom." "Even when I feel like I wasn’t depressed, I just wasn’t being myself. And now, I don’t feel like that. I don’t give a f**k. Like, b***h, f**k you, I’m living my life. [...] I balance it all. How do you expect women to heal over a heartbreak? That’s why we say our mothers cry so much."

Drake has been heavily criticized by Charlamagne Tha God over his legal action against Universal Music Group.
Speaking on The Breakfast Club on Monday (December 2), Charlamagne outlined his feelings on Drizzy’s allegations that the music giant used payola and streaming bots to boost the popularity of Kendrick Lamar‘s diss track “Not Like Us,” as well as his claim of defamation because of the song’s content.
“I told you Drake was going to sue. He is a multi-billion dollar entity; no multi-billion dollar entity is going to allow you to call him a pedophile or sex offender and not take some sort of legal action,” he began.
The radio host went on to warn that Drake could be opening a can of worms because of things he said on his own diss tracks: “The person who has the real defamation case in this situation is Kendrick’s woman [Whitney Alford], because Drake not only said Kendrick was beating on her, he said that Dave Free, Kendrick’s business partner and friend, was the real father to one of Kendrick’s kids.
“So if you’re going to accuse somebody of defamation, you must first make sure you, too, aren’t guilty of defamation. Drake saying that Kendrick defamed him is indeed the pot calling the kettle beige.”
Charlamagne continued to tear into the 6 God by branding him “Donkey of the Day” and accusing him of being a hypocrite, a sore loser and a Hip Hop outsider who “simply doesn’t understand culture.”
“There was a time when Drake was on the cover of every playlist on Spotify,” he said. “Stop acting like you haven’t been the beneficiary of record label tricknology. You being a whole ho simply because you lost.
“Simply because Kendrick Lamar kicked your ass — lyrically, mentally, spiritually and emotionally. Anybody acting like this is anything more than Drake’s feelings being hurt, you a ho, too. An O-V-ho to be exact.”
He added: “Drake, you’re in this position because you tapped out after you heard ‘Not Like Us.’ Kendrick dropped too much tune for your headtop […] You could’ve gone into the studio and give us a bop! But you chose not to. Kendrick won. And he told you to squabble up, not lawyer up.”
The media personality wrapped his lecture by offering Drake some advice: “Take a break, go away. Let nostalgia bring you back, people will miss you. You see what J. Cole is doing. People don’t even care he tapped out of the rap battle anymore!”
It is not yet clear if Drake intends to file a lawsuit against UMG regarding the aforementioned claims. The Toronto native has not spoken publicly on the “pre-action” legal filings or the backlash to them.
