Cardi B Boasts of Multiple Income Streams Amidst Tiktok Ban
American rapper Cardi B has expressed confidence that the ban on TikTok in the United States will not affect her career.
The ban, which took effect on January 19, was enforced after TikTok’s Chinese owners failed to sell the platform as mandated by a law enacted by President Joe Biden in April 2024.
A social media user, @1lex, suggested that rappers like Cardi B, who rely on TikTok to promote their music, should find alternative jobs.
The user tweeted, “Now, all the female TikTok rappers gotta find real jobs. You first, @imcardib.”
In response, Cardi B wrote, “Babe, I’m getting a $7 million offer to do my own vitamins. I can retire you from your flipping burger job by tomorrow. Thank me though; I’ve been helping you get your $8.99 Twitter check.
“The ‘you’re successful/blew up bc of TikTok’ narrative doesn’t work on Cardi B, try again.
“Today gotta be the funniest day on twitter is literally killin me… when did y’all get this hilarious???”
