Cardi also addressed the issue on X.
The I Like It rapper said on the social media platform: "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. (sic)"
Meanwhile, Cardi previously claimed to be "tired" of her public feuds.
The Grammy-winning rapper has become embroiled in several spats and controversies during her time in the spotlight, and Cardi admitted that the "drama" can be exhausting.
Cardi - whose 2025 album was called Am I the Drama? - told PAPER Magazine: "I be every kind of tired and it exhausts me.
"There's drama that I expected to come. Because if I'm throwing shots at b******, I expect the drama to come from them. I'm not gonna act like, 'Oh, it wasn't gonna come when I'm directly talking to you'. I can't be surprised that a b**** is trying me, because I pull their cards.
"However, when people just be trying you, and you're not even paying attention to them, you're not even talking to them about them, it's like, 'This is why I say that I am the drama'.
"I even bother b****** when I don't even give them attention. It's still an issue. So that just means that is that. I am the drama. No matter how much I avoid it is gonna come to me."
