It’s Really Up: Cardi B & JT Go At Each Other’s Sew-Ins On Twitter
HipHopWired Featured Video CLOSE Source: Prince Williams / Getty Cardi B and JT of the City Girls were previously thought to be good associates at the very least but apparently, that isn’t the case. The Bronx star and the Miami rapper exchanged some harsh words about one another via Twitter and the Barbz, among others, are seemingly enjoying the mess. It isn’t known exactly why this beef started but from what we’ve gathered from Twitter , Cardi B may have thrown the first subliminal shot and JT returned fire after a second tweet went up. The tweets reading “Lapdog” and “Go Fetch” was cryptic until JT responded with, “Cardi you go fetch a real talent! We DM’ing why you come back here to put on a show for these KIDS?” Cardi, not known for pulling punches, fired back with a Quote Tweet to JT ...

HipHopWired Featured Video CLOSE Source: Robin L Marshall / Getty Chrisean Rock and Blueface might be the most toxic celebrity couple around and it appeared all but over. However, it looks like the former athlete is ready to dive headfirst back into the toxic pool that is their relationship.

Chrisean you are enough” which was then followed by, “U gon wish u only kept this one tho.” A few more tweets followed the breakup announcement that all but signified the end of the Chrisean Rock and Blueface saga but all of that changed on Monday (Oct. 3). “I’m his best friend n bread winner till death do us part,” which could be assumed to be about Blueface. And if any mystery rema...

More Mess: “It’s Giving Coke” Trends On Twitter, Nicki Minaj Appears To Be The Target
HipHopWired Featured Video CLOSE Source: Kevin Mazur / Getty Nicki Minaj wasn’t thought to be a part of the current back and forth between Cardi B and Akbar V, but many on Twitter are suggesting the opposite.

As most Hip-Hop fans are well aware, certain artists have a collective of fans, or “hives” that put all of their energy into celebrating their respective faves. Sometimes, these groups of fans really take their roles seriously and become digital foot soldiers on the battlefield which is social media. That said, Nicki Minaj probably didn’t help matters earlier today if the subtweeting Cardi B accusations are true. Rewinding just a bit, Cardi and Akbar V got into a nasty war of word...
