Cardi B Considers Canceling Atlanta Show Over Alleged Disrespect
On April 18, during the second night of her performance at Atlanta's State Farm Arena, Cardi B stated she considered canceling the show. The consideration was due to her touring party allegedly being treated disrespectfully by venue employees.
Incident Details
The artist communicated her frustration during an Instagram Live broadcast, stating she wanted to speak to higher management. Despite the incident, the concert, part of her 'Little Miss Drama' tour, later proceeded as scheduled.
"Your employees are being disrespectful… I’m not performing today," Cardi B said during the broadcast. She added, "We got in here, your employees are being rude for no reason."
Follow-Up Statement
In a follow-up post on the social media platform X on April 19, Cardi B elaborated on her stance regarding power and respect.
"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."
NME reported it reached out to State Farm Arena for comment.
