The bad blood is back—and it’s boiling.
Cardi B and longtime rival Rah Ali are reigniting their infamous feud after a fiery face-off at the Cannes airport—and the drama is playing out on podcasts, timelines, and social media threads everywhere.
What started as a tense run-in has turned into a full-blown verbal war, with wild claims of thrown speakers, airport chaos, and deep-rooted resentment going all the way back to that unforgettable 2018 NYFW brawl.
🎥 Rah Ali Breaks Her Silence on Podcast
Rah Ali was the first to speak out, giving her version of the airport altercation on her Onsited podcast with co-host Ray Daniels.
According to Rah, she was blindsided by Cardi’s “hostile energy,” and despite being physically exhausted and in a wheelchair (after a long run at Paris Fashion Week), she claimed she kept her composure.
“It was just shocking,” Rah said. “You’re a mother of three, screaming and wilding out in an airport? What are we doing?”
💥 Cardi B Claps Back: “I Waited for My Moment”
Cardi wasted no time firing back—calling Rah a “clout chaser” who’s spinning the moment for headlines.
In typical Bardi fashion, she took to social media and admitted she’d been waiting to settle their beef since that iconic NYFW dustup back in 2018.
“I patiently waited for my moment,” Cardi told fans. “And I didn’t hesitate to strike.”
She added that she wasn’t concerned about being arrested, because “the Bronx in me wouldn’t let it slide.”
🔊 Speaker Thrown? Depends Who You Ask
The most viral claim? Cardi says she threw a JBL speaker and it hit Rah Ali in the head. Rah, however, insists that nothing hit her at all—adding more chaos to an already dramatic saga.
“I’m good. Nothing touched me,” Rah declared on the podcast.
Meanwhile, Cardi doubled down: “I needed to prove to my bodyguard that I still stand on business.”
Let’s just say… fans are divided.
👀 Ray Daniels Adds Fuel to the Fire
Podcast host Ray Daniels didn’t hold back either. As the incident unfolded, he jumped in with his own hot take, taking aim at Cardi’s love life.
He suggested that Cardi’s aggression may be rooted in emotional neglect—name-dropping Offset, Stefon Diggs, and DJ Self as men who allegedly didn’t show her “real love.”
“You act out because you’ve never been loved by a real man,” Ray said, with Rah nodding in agreement.
That comment sparked instant backlash from Cardi fans, who rushed to her defense online and accused Ray of stepping way out of line.
💬 Social Media Weighs In
The moment this story hit the internet, the reactions came fast:
- “Cardi throwing a speaker like it’s WWE?? I’m crying 💀”
- “Rah Ali is always in the middle of some mess. What did she expect?”
- “Ray Daniels talking about love like he’s Dr. Phil. Bye.”
- “Whether it landed or not, Cardi was READY. And that’s scary.”
- “She said ‘I waited 7 years’—oh this was personal.”
With the #RahAli and #CardiB hashtags trending, fans and bloggers are now digging deeper into the pair’s decade-long beef, with some even speculating that this clash could spark a lawsuit or travel ban if things escalate.
✈️ Why Were They Even in Cannes?
Both women were reportedly flying out of France after a stretch of events at Paris Fashion Week and Cannes appearances. Rah was recovering from a grueling schedule, while Cardi had been seen partying at events and promoting upcoming music.
That timing made their unexpected airport collision all the more explosive.
“I didn’t expect to see her there. But when I did? Game on,” Cardi reportedly told a fan via DM.
📺 What’s Next?
Whether you’re Team Bardi or Team Rah, one thing’s clear: this feud is back—and messier than ever.
There’s no word yet on whether Rah Ali will take legal action, or if Cardi’s team will address the podcast’s more personal jabs.
But if history is any guide? Neither of these women is letting go quietly.
