by

As someone who has always admired the resilience and determination of individuals who rise from humble beginnings to greatness, I find myself deeply moved by Cardi B’s response to Elon Musk’s disparaging remarks.

On Friday, November 1, during her speech at a rally for Kamala Harris in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, rapper Cardi B encountered a technical glitch. This issue sparked numerous reactions on social media, even catching the attention of billionaire Elon Musk. Later, Cardi B took to X (previously known as Twitter, a platform currently owned by Musk), to respond to his initial comments.

What did Elon Musk say about Cardi B?

In simpler terms, Musk shared a post implying that Cardi B was unable to speak spontaneously when the teleprompter reportedly failed during her speech, and he tweeted, “Here’s another person who can only speak with scripted lines. The Kamala campaign lacks genuine sincerity and true compassion.

In simple terms, Cardi B is among various entertainers and musicians endorsing Kamala Harris for the 2024 U.S. presidential election. Contrastingly, Elon Musk declared his allegiance towards Harris’ Republican opponent, Donald Trump, and promised to donate a million dollars daily to American voters who sign his petition advocating for the Constitution. Earlier reports suggest that Musk had already contributed $75 million to America Pac, a pro-Trump political action committee he founded. (Based on an article from The Guardian)

How did Cardi B react to Elon Musk’s remark about her?

In response to Musk’s assertion, Cardi B strongly disagreed and elaborated on her personal background. She referenced his post and wrote, “Elon, I’m not a marionette… I’m the daughter of two hardworking immigrants! I’m a result of welfare, a product of housing vouchers (Section 8), a product of poverty, and a product of a system that works against you. But you don’t know anything about that.

The artist behind “Bodak Yellow” stated, “You’re clueless about the American fight… by the way, could you work on improving my algorithm?

Significantly, Cardi B is the daughter of a Dominican man and a Trinidadian mother who has African and Spanish roots. On several occasions, she has expressed that she identifies as Afro-Latina.

The 2024 U.S. presidential election is scheduled for Tuesday, November 5, 2024.
