Cardi Responds After She's Brought Into Lizzo's 'Spaz' Drama

by Daryl Nelson

A lot of people have weighed in on the controversy involving Lizzo's use of the word "Spaz."

She put the word in her new song "GRRRLS," and some said it was an ableist slur. So, Lizzo released a new song without the word after being slammed.

Eventually, Cardi B was pulled into the drama, which she responded to.

"Cardi is slim and light-skinned. She will often get away with more than other women, especially those who look like Lizzo will. That's the world we live in," wrote one petty individual who has way too much time on their hands. "People may get mad but I don't care lol Colorism and fatphobia shape SO MANY reactions and extensions of 'grace.'"

"Ya will do mental gymnastics to include me in anything that people are getting dragged for," Cardi shot back. "People have called me out for plenty of sh*t .Yall do it every week SOMETHINGS I apologize for & some things I will tell y’all TO SUCK DICK & personally If I was Lizzo I would of said SMD."

What would you do if you were in Lizzo's situation?
