It comes after Cardi reflected on the major backlash she received following her performance of WAP with Megan at the 2021 Grammy Awards.

Taking to Twitter on July 4, the Bodak Yellow rapper reminded followers about the harassment she received after the divisive performance - particularly from conservatives.

“Y’all remember when the FCC almost sued me [because] I performed WAP at the Grammys? What about when all the Republicans literally harassed me over it? On the news every day… Y’all remember? Oooohhh [because] I do,” she tweeted.

According to the FCC [Federal Communications Commission], more than 1000 people complained about Cardi and Megan Thee Stallion’s Grammy performance, slamming their duet as “obscene” and “pornographic".

Cardi responded to the complaints, hitting back at naysayers on Twitter: “The Grammys are PG, that means parental guidance, meaning [it’s] your job – like it is to mine to my child – to monitor what they watch," she Tweeted in response to the haters in March 2021.

"My performance was around 10 pm on a Sunday. Your child should be in bed ready for school the next day. Why are they up watching WAP?”

Interestingly, Cardi recently told Vogue México y Latinoamérica that she wasn’t planning on partaking in another collaboration anytime soon.

“I’m not going to release any more collaborations,” she said for her V cover story. “I’m going to put out my next solo single. Right now, I’m working on the cover art and ideas for the next record because it’s definitely coming up.”

“Everyone always tells me I should put the record out now. They did when I released ‘WAP’ [with Megan Thee Stallion] and when I released Up, but I always let them know I’m not going to wait long after all these singles. So stay tuned because it’s coming out very soon.”

We guess she changed her mind!
