The feud between Cardi B and Ice Spice reached another boiling point today after a shocking phone call leaked online, capturing Cardi threatening to physically assault the Bronx newcomer. But now, Ice Spice’s manager is stepping in to clear his name.
The leaked call
In the viral clip, Cardi can be heard shouting furiously about Ice Spice:
“I’ma beat her the fk up! I’ma knock her the fk out! … I’ma get Riot beat up by my ns. Y’all gonna see what the fk is up! You think I’m pu**y as Latto?”*
She also challenged Spice directly when told she was in New York:
“She in New York?! Tell her to link up! Ns think I’m Latto? You think I’m Nicki Minaj? I’ll beat you the fk up, all y’all!”
The audio immediately set social media on fire, with fans debating whether Cardi had gone too far — or if it was just more fuel for the ongoing rap beef.
Cardi accuses Ice Spice’s manager
Cardi was quick to suggest the call was leaked by Ice Spice’s manager, James Rosemond Jr., tweeting:
“But wait James… go ahead baby post the whole 11-minute convo when Ice Spice said she was in her feelings… POST IT ALL!!! You came to bang right???”
She later doubled down, writing:
“James be foreal and be a man… it was only you me and Tubby on the call.. so you saying it was Tubby??… Your artist put a laughing emoji then leaked the convo then posted a trash as clip of her song in less than an hour.”*
James Rosemond Jr. denies involvement
Caught by Live Bitez, James responded, insisting he had nothing to do with the leak:
“I did not record or leak that call. You hear me on speaker w/ ur manager Tubby who called me with you on three way & u can literally hear that in the clip. The audio didn’t come from me. I respect private conversations & I’m not in the business of leaking anything.”
He accused Cardi of lying, while reiterating that he’s not in the habit of leaking private calls.
What’s next?
The situation has only intensified the Cardi–Ice Spice rivalry, with both sides pointing fingers and fans awaiting the next move. Whether this escalates to diss tracks or more behind-the-scenes drama remains to be seen.
