The ongoing feud between Cardi B and Nicki Minaj has reignited with a new online beef. On December 14, Nicki Minaj took to Twitter, expressing frustration over Billboard allegedly dismissing sales for her Pink Friday 2 album.

Cardi B entered the conversation by liking a tweet addressing the #WAPParty giveaway. The tweet emphasized that the Cash App partnership for "WAP" occurred after it had already reached number one, required no proof of purchase, and welcomed any woman in need. “The Cash App partnership for WAP was during the end of the second week. It was already number one and it required NO proof of purchase and didn’t even require you to be a Cardi fan. The only requirement was that you had to be a WOMAN who could use the extra funds.”
