As Cardi B graces the September 2020 issue of Elle Magazine, the New York Mogul spoke about the death of Breonna Taylor, her upcoming album and more.
As we know, Cardi B has always been vocal about the injustice within the system as well as politics, well, in the latest issue of Elle Magazine, she didn't hesitate to speak on Breonna Taylor, the 26 year old EMT in Louisville Kentucky that was killed while asleep by three police officers who were executing a no-knock search warrant on her apartment back in March.
"I saw Breonna Taylor’s name everywhere, but I didn’t really know her story. What they did to her is really f*ked up. Really f*ked up. What’s the excuse? Why is the cop not in jail? Wasn’t what he did a crime? It’s a crime! And no apology. No apology. No video of the cop coming out crying, ‘I f*cked up. I don’t this. I don’t that.’ Nothing. It’s nothing. I don’t even know how her mom still holds her head up. Unbelievable."
Cardi Adds, "A woman like Breonna Taylor, she was young," she told Elle Magazine. "She looked like she was listening to your music. She looked like she was your fan. You should stick up for her." As she called out artists in the hip hop industry for not speaking out on the tragic death of the 26 year old Breonna Taylor.
Cardi B was also vocal about why she doesn't support Donald Trump as America's president.
"Those people that he caters to, he’s not going to do anything for them, she said. It’s not like Republicans are getting better housing. It’s not like Republicans are getting better benefits. They’re not. He’s not doing anything for anybody. He’s just saying things that appease the same people. I want a president who makes me feel secure. I want a president who understands the pain of the people. I want a president who is going to give us answers."
