Cardi B:
I want to make this very clear, when I **** two people and I like two people, I stay away from **** because when it comes to relationship, some **** will always happen. And one thing about me, I’m gonna stay neutral, and I’m gonna stay the **** out of it.
Tetris Kelly:
Now will this track be a part of Cardi’s long-awaited sophomore album? And when is it coming out?

It’s coming. I’m just waiting on everything to be ready. So when it’s time to order, everybody can have everything on deck for the pre-order.

Oh, Cardi. Well, we will be ready when it comes.
