Cardi B. Photo: Dan MacMedan/Getty Images Cardi B’s Instagram is now gone. The singer deactivated her account following a video she posted in which she defended herself against an onslaught of criticism following her history-making Grammys win for Best Rap Album. In the now-deleted video, Cardi began by addressed her feud with Nicki Minaj, and how BET had been stoking the drama between the two rappers (the network had posted a link to a news piece praising Cardi’s Grammys win on Twitter, adding, “Meanwhile, Nicki Minaj is being dragged by her lacefront.”) The two famously feuded last year and Cardi reportedly threw a shoe at Nicki during last year’s Harper’s Bazaar ICONS party, but Cardi said that she does not condone BET pitting them against each other. “It’s not my style for people to put other people down to uplift somebody else. That’s not my style and that’s not what I’m with, I don’t support that.” she said in the Instagram video. “However, I’ve been taking a lot of shit today. I’m seeing a lot of bullshit today and I saw a lot of shit last night, and I’m sick of this shit. I work hard for my motherfucking album.” Cardi B reveals that she does not support BET’s aim at Nicki Minaj and defends herself from haters discrediting her #GRAMMYs win. pic.twitter.com/ZA1nKoiuUO — Music News Facts (@musicnewsfact) February 11, 2019 “I remember last year when I didn’t win for ‘Bodak Yellow’ and everybody was like, ‘Cardi got snubbed,’” she continued. “Now this year’s a fucking problem? !” On Sunday night, Cardi became the first solo woman to win a Best Rap Album Grammy for Invasion of Privacy. After Ariana Grande called out the Grammys for snubbing Mac Miller, who was nominated for a posthumous Best Rap Album award for Swimming, Cardi B partly dedicated her win to Miller, writing on Instagram that she “read an article that Mac Miller’s family said that if he don’t win, they want me to win, so I’m sharing this Grammy with you.” In another post to her Instagram on Monday night, captured by People, she shared a screenshot of Chance the Rapper’s congratulatory post about her Grammy, and reflected on how much work the album took. “Slept in the studio on leather sofas for 3 months straight, migraines, in Atlanta in Miami away from my family,” she wrote, adding that she had gotten sick while recording, and struggled with the speculations over her pregnancy. This isn’t the first time Cardi has deleted her Instagram (she also deactivated it following a fight with Azealia Banks), so hopefully we won’t have to wait too long for more of her thoughts on the government shutdown.

A day after the Invasion of Privacy artist took home her first GRAMMY Award for Best Rap Album, and slayed with a sexy performance of "Money," the 26-year-old rapper deactivated her Instagram account. The deactivation came shortly after she posted a fiery, profanity-filled video to her Instagram story where she called out critics who felt she didn't deserve to win the GRAMMY. "I've been taking a lot of s**t today, I'm seeing a lot of bulls**t today and I saw a lot of s**t last night and I'm sick of this s**t," a livid Cardi B explained in the video. "I worked hard for my motherf**king album." "I f**king worked my *ss off, locked myself in the studio for three months… didn’t go to sleep in my own bed, sometimes for four days straight, [while] pregnant," she continued, adding that many people at the time were telling her, "Your career is over," because of her pregnancy. Ultimately, after Invasion of Privacy dropped in April 2018 the album went on to be certified double platinum by the RIAA, while Cardi became the first female artist to have all the tracks from the album individually certified gold. . @IamCardib vents about seeing a lot of ‘bullsh*t’ on social media surrounding her #GRAMMYs win: “I f*cking worked my ass off, locked myself in the studio for 3 months, didn’t go to sleep in my own bed, sometimes for 4 days straight- while pregnant!” pic.twitter.com/IH6UslAh1s — Pop Crave (@PopCrave) February 11, 2019 On Sunday, she also became the first solo female artist to win Best Rap Album at the GRAMMYs. But, it goes to show that no matter how much you accomplish, you can't silence your critics. However, Cardi did feel a lot of love from many of her fellow artists, and she took to Twitter to thank those who supported her. "I listen to my album and I cry because I know the hell I went thruu doing the album is always a bittersweet memory," she wrote, alongside a screenshot of a complimentary comment from Chance the Rapper after her GRAMMY victory. "THANK YOU EVERYONE THAT SUPPORTED ME AND LISTEN .Im thankful and grateful and again thank you to all the artist that gave me a feature."

The rapper apparently received the flowers as a gift, and they came with a card quoting lyrics from a song by Petty. Then, in a post on her Instagram story, which she deleted shortly after, Cardi graciously thanked the singer -- whom she seemingly didn't realize died in October 2017.

Straight up bask in it YOU deserve it.” Despite these accolades and well-wishes, Cardi B told fans she was being criticized by some naysayers. She recalled being taunted while making the album by people who said she had ruined her career by becoming pregnant. “I remember last year when I didn’t win for "Bodak Yellow," everybody was like, ‘Cardi got snubbed, Cardi got snubbed,'" she said in the deleted video.

"I fucking worked my ass off, locked myself in the studio for three months...then wouldn't sleep in my own bed, sometimes for four days straight, pregnant.

Cardi B has quit Instagram following apparent abuse she’s received after her album “Invasion of Privacy” won the best rap album Grammy at Sunday’s awards show. The “Money” rapper posted an expletive-laden video shortly before deleting the account, in which she ripped into commentators who’ve said she didn’t deserve the award. “It’s not my style for people to put other people down to uplift somebody else, that’s not my style and that’s not what I’m with and I don’t support that,” she began. “However, I been taking a lot of s— today, I’m seeing a lot of bull— today and I saw a lot of s— last night.

Earlier today, Nicki Minaj canceled an appearance at the BET Experience Concert this summer, where she was set to co-headline with Cardi B, after the BET Twitter account posted a derogatory tweet related to Minaj’s lack of recognition at the Grammys. Minaj also joined Ariana Grande in criticizing Grammys producer Ken Ehrlich, saying that he had bullied her in the past.
