Cardi B Says Constant Jealousy From People in Her Inner Circle Is Making Her ‘Colder & Meaner’

Cardi B says jealousy from people close to her is creating tension as her success grows, leaving her wary of sharing achievements and business deals with them. She says the experience is making her feel “colder and meaner”, and describes success as lonely.

In an Instagram Live on 27 October, she said the resentment came from people she knows personally, rather than the public, but did not identify anyone. She had also criticised online commenters in an X Spaces chat on 21 October; her latest singles are “AH HA” and “Don’t Chart”, and her second album, *Am I the Drama?*, was released just over a year ago.
