"Your f—king employees are being disrespectful," the rapper is heard yelling on Instagram Live.
Cardi B came close to calling off her Atlanta concert after claiming that venue staff treated her team disrespectfully.
Just hours before her second Little Miss Drama Tour show at State Farm Arena on Saturday April 18, the 33 year old rapper went live on Instagram, capturing a tense exchange with individuals believed to be venue staff regarding how members of her team were being handled.
“Your f—king employees are being disrespectful … I’m not performing today,” Cardi is heard shouting in the video while asking to speak directly with management.
“We got in here, your employees are being f—king rude for no reason, being rude for no reason,” she continued. “I feel a certain type of way, because you being disrespectful. I did 35 shows, and I never had a problem, and we’ve been kind to everybody.”
Even with the situation, Cardi still went on to perform at State Farm Arena that night, closing out her Little Miss Drama Tour, which marked her first time headlining an arena tour.
In a message posted on X after the show, Cardi wrote, “When you hold power and authority, use it with kindness and respect. Never abuse it… because not everyone will endure your arrogance in silence. Treat others exactly like you demand to be treated. Atlanta… I’ll see you soon.”
Billboard has reached out to State Farm Arena and Cardi’s team for additional comment.
The Grammy winning artist’s tour, which spanned more than 30 dates, was in support of her second album Am I the Drama?, which reached No. 1 on the Billboard 200 in September 2025.
The Little Miss Drama Tour began in Palm Desert, California on February 11 and included appearances from artists such as Meek Mill, Megan Thee Stallion, Tyla, Kehlani, Lil’ Kim, Fetty Wap, GloRilla and A Boogie Wit Da Hoodie.
