The Hollywood Unlocked founder recently discussed the incident on with DJ Akademiks on the Off The Record podcast. At one point, Jason brought up the 2018 incident between Nicki and Cardi.
He then claimed former Love and Hip Hop star Rashidah Ali, also known as Rah Ali, “punched” the Bodak Yellow rapper at the party. The media personality claims Rah jumped in when Cardi was trying to “go in” on Nicki. He further claims she’s the one who gave Cardi a “knot.”
Hot New Hip Hop further alleges Rah Ali attacked Cardi to gain Nicki’s favor. The Barbie World singer too claimed the same thing after the incident. In an episode of Queen Radio, she said, “Rah held her head and punched her like eight, nine times, and I could hear it.” However, Cardi has denied all of these reports saying she was never hit.
HITC and GRV Media have reached out to both Rah Ali and Cardi B for comment on Jason Lee’s claims.
View TweetWhat Cardi B has said about the incident?
Cardi took to her Instagram back in 2018 to deny the claims that she got punched at the Harper’s Bazaar party.
She called out Nicki on her Instagram pointing out how so many clips of that party made it to social media but not a single clip saw her getting punched.
“This my thing Nicki Minaj,” she says. “How are you saying I got ‘ragged’ by Rah Ali when there is so much footage of that night every single angle and where am I getting ragged?”
Nicki on the other hand wanted to put the whole drama aside and move on after the incident.
