Cardi B hasn’t realized her lesson in terms of the utilization of transphobic slurs.
Today (Sept. 16), the rapper posted a meme to her verified Facebook fan web page that claims, “I hope nobody see this tr—y leave my house,” adopted by laughing emojis. The textual content is accompanied by a cartoon picture of a person strolling by a door. Several feedback expressed their disapproval for the publish.
This isn’t the primary time the rapper has caught warmth for utilizing this language. In January, she defined that she didn’t understand “tr—y” was an offensive phrase in a Twitter live stream:
“Like I didn’t know that that was a word that you cannot use, especially because my trans friends use it and growing up, my parents never told me that that was a bad word,” she said. “You know, there’s bad words that your parents teach you that you’re not supposed to say. Nobody taught us that. Nobody taught us that in our school.”
During the identical stream, she defended her now-husband Offset’s homophobic lyrics. The Migos rapper — who had beforehand made homophobic feedback in an interview with Rolling Stone — rapped “I do not vibe with queers / I got the heart of a bear / I bust ‘em down by the pair” on “Boss Life,” a collaboration with YFN Lucci.
“I’m not gonna let somebody call him homophobic when I know that he’s not,” Cardi B stated. “I’m saying this because I see him around gays, and he treats them with the same respect he treats everybody. He never acts uncomfortable, and he just don’t care.”
This controversy comes on the heels of fellow rapper Eminem admitting that he went too far when utilizing a homophobic slur on his newest album, Kamikaze.
