<p>Current rap sensation Cardi B just backhanded fellow female rapper Azealia Banks who was criticizing her chart topping hit &#8216;Yellow Bodak&#8217;.<br />
Social media gadfly Banks questioned Cardi B&#8217;s rights to be &#8216; Blackness&#8217; and the unthinkable crime of hitting No. 1 on the charts, before the incomparable Azealia. Cardi&#8217;s response was swift, brutal and epic.<br />

<p>Banks had been <a href="http://theboombox.com/azealia-banks-slams-cardi-bs-success-black-industry-men-are-too-hype-for-this-latina-girl/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">quick to slam</a> the Bronx-bred rapper after her hit &#8220;Bodak Yellow&#8221; topped the Billboard charts, but Cardi hit right back with a video proving Banks loves the song just as much as the rest of the world.<br />
Cardi, 24, made history earlier this week, as only the second lone female rappers to hit No. 1 with no featured artists . First was Lauryn Hill nearly 20 years ago.<br />
While much of the music industry heaped praise on Cardi for accomplishing the feat, controversial singer Azealia Banks took to Twitter to pen a scathing attack on the Cardi, calling her a &#8220;poor man&#8217;s&#8221; Nicki Minaj and criticizing the music industry for turning their backs on black women.</p>

<strong>Cardi B first female rapper to have solo No. 1 song since 1998 with &#8216;Yellow Bodak&#8217;</strong></p>
<p>&#8220;I&#8217;m sorry. Black industry men are too hype for this Latina girl I&#8217;ve never seen them jump like this for Remy (Ma) or Nicki (Minaj),&#8221; Banks wrote. &#8220;Spinning this &#8216;for the culture&#8217; story when they are simply letting white men at Atlantic buy them into hating their own women… I wanted spicy Latina and she gave me poor mans Nicki.&#8221;<br />
Belcalis Almanzar, aka Cardi B&#8217;, is a native New Yorker of Trinidadian and Dominican descent.</p>

<p><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-262679" src="https://konniemoments.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/azealia-banks-vs-cardi-b-tweets-2.png" alt="Azealia Banks vs Cardi B tweets 2.png" width="1182" height="1020" />Unchained, Banks didn&#8217;t spare Charlamagne Tha God, the host of a popular morning radio show on the hip hop station Power 105.1, for not campaigning heavily enough for her own music.<br />
&#8220;Charlemagne and black men in hip hop should have gotten me, remy AND nicki a number one before they gave Cardi or Iggy (Azalea) one,&#8221; she wrote. &#8220;But literally white guys buy black men away from black women and it&#8217;s soo cringe.&#8221;</p>

&#8220;One of the reasons Bodak Yellow went #1! Cuz even the HATERS love it!&#8221; she wrote.<br />
It would seem non-haters love it, too.<br />
Taylor Swift — whom Cardi dethroned to hit No. 1 — sent the rapper a bouquet of flowers as congratulations.</p>

<p>And for what it’s worth, Nicki Minaj herself also offered up a celebratory message to Cardi.<br />
