She is accused of two counts of felony assault stemming from a fight in a Queens stripclub. Her public brawl with rival, Nicki Minaj is well documented as is her rise from the Bronx to superstardom via stripclubs and reality television. It’s the stuff of legend as is her big personality and unique form of feminism. Her trial looms but has Cardi B already committed and admitted to a crime that is possibly far worse?
