Cardi B Says 'Racism And Sensual Lyrics Are Not The Same'
March 15, 2021
Coming off the night of her Grammy performance of WAP with Megan Thee Stallion, Cardi B has been receiving a stream of criticism comparing the popularity of her lyrics to the recent censorship of Dr. Seuss's books.
I am way more offended by everything Cardi B does and stands for than I am a simple Dr. Seuss book, RT if you agree!

While the origin of the comparisons between the hip hop artist and the children's books is unknown, Cardi B used her social media platform to issue a response to her haters.

She further goes on to explain that Dr. Seuss's books were censored by the publishing company and not due to any political agenda.
