Cardi B opened up about her money bag after fans speculated that she is struggling financially.
After the Grammy winner shared a sponsored ad with clothing brand Shein on Tuesday, Cardi’s fans took to the comments to question why she would partner with the fast fashion line if she often wears expensive brands.
“People say that I’m surviving off Shein deals and brand deals — wait hold on,” the rapper said in a voice recording shared via X on Tuesday. “I want to let y’all know I could wake up tomorrow, sign a contract, and have half of $65 million — or half of $70 million – in my bank.”
Cardi continued to flex her wealth by saying she isn’t merely “surviving” and spends “about $3 million in a month.”
