Popular US rapper, Cardi B has admitted that she drugged and robbed men when she worked as a stripper.
According to her, she did those things to men in the past in order for her to survive.
An old video resurfaced on social media platforms of the ‘Bodak Yellow’ rapper ranting about how she lured men into coming back to hotels with her and then she would drug and steal from them.
But reacting, Cardi B took to her Instagram page to explain reason for her actions.
She expressed regrets for claims she made in the video before her music career began.
Cardi B said: “So I’m seeing on social media that a live I did 3 years ago has popped back up. A video where I talked about things I had to do in my past right or wrong that I felt I needed to go to make a living.
“I never claim to be perfect or come from a perfect world with a perfect past I always speak my truth I always own my shit.
“Im apart of a hip hop culture where you can talk about where you come from talk about the wrong things you had to do to get where you are. There are rappers that glorify murder violence drugs an robbing. Crimes they feel they had to do to survive.
“I never glorified the things I brought up in my music because I’m not proud of it and feel a responsibility not to glorify it. I made the choices that I did at the time because I had very limited options.
“ I was blessed to have been able to rise from that but so many women have not. Whether or not they were poor choices at the time I did what I had to do to survive.
“The men I spoke about in my live were men that I dated that I was involve with men that were conscious willing and aware. I have a past that i can’t change we all do.”
