A Timeline of Cardi B & Candace Owens’ Political Debate

R&I – FS

With the Nov. 3 presidential election coming up, Cardi B and politically conservative commentator Candace Owens have launched into a debate of their own.

Owens went on The Ben Shapiro Show Sunday (Sept. 6) to discuss how the rapper’s interview with Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden for Elle on Aug. 17 was “pandering” to Black American voters by appealing to their music taste. But Cardi fought back on Twitter and Instagram with claims that as one of the hottest rappers with a Billboard Hot 100 No. 1 “WAP” collaboration with Megan Thee Stallion last month, she had the right to use her platform to encourage her fans to vote and be politically active.
