Pro tip: Don’t come at Cardi B. The diamond-certified rapper performed at the Chase Sapphire Lounge on Friday, December 2, as part of the annual Art Basel festivities in Miami Beach. One hater tweeted, “Grammy winner Cardi B performing in someone’s backyard.” Cardi clapped back with a paystub for $1 million. The exchange has since been deleted, but it was captured and subsequently set the internet on fire.

“I got payed [sic] 1 million dollars to perform at this elite bankers event private event for 400 people and only for 35 minutes… … THINK ABOUT THAT WHEN YOU TYPE ABOUT THIS GRAMMY WINNER,” Cardi B responded.

Offset, Cardi’s husband of five years, also performed at Art Basel and dedicated his performance to Takeoff, his cousin and fellow Migos member Takeoff who was fatally shot on November 1 in Houston. Cardi’s Chase Sapphire Lounge performance briefly lifted his spirits — she previously said she’s been “feeling so hopeless trying to make my husband happy” in the aftermath of Takeoff’s tragic passing — according to NSFW texts tweeted by Cardi.

Yesterday (December 3), Offset shared another online tribute to Takeoff. He tweeted an animation of the late 28-year-old with the message, “I miss you bra tryna push through the pain.”
