Cardi B has recently taken to social media to announce that she plans to sue the Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) for asking her to take off all her clothes following an incident at her home that resulted in law enforcement entering her house.
During an Instagram Live, the ‘WAP’ rhymer recalled her interaction with the LAPD and explained that the officers were under the impression that she was selling drugs because they didn’t realise who she was.
Detailing how seriously the LAPD took the allegations, Cardi told fans, “They had all the helicopters in LA. Yo, I was freaking out. They had me outside for like three hours. They had me getting butt-naked outside. Shit was crazy. It was deadass a movie and whatever, but you already know.”
She continued, “I’m about to sue the LAPD. I told them like, ‘Yo, I’m Cardi B. Like do I look like I gotta sell some shit? Like why would I do that? I would never pull no shit like that.'”
The Bronx artist explained that the officers had made her take off her clothes to prove she had no narcotics on her. However, even after she told them who she was, they continued to push her around like a criminal due to their lack of knowledge.
She added, “They didn’t believe me. It was some white cops, and they ain’t know who I was. They was really tough on me and everything. They said somebody gave them a clue. I really feel like it was one of my opps and shit, like they really trying to ruin my life type shit. Like, y’all don’t even fucking know. I been going through a lot lately.”
However, she finished by thanking her fans for all the support they have been showing her recently and hailed her supporters for streaming her new single ‘Enough (Miami)’, which earned the female lyricist her twelfth top-ten hit.
