Their tension escalated when Cardi joined Remy Ma during a performance at the 2017 Summer Jam in the middle of Nicki’s high-profile feud with Ma. Their distance grew further in 2018 during the infamous New York Fashion Week. They exchanged barbed words, and Cardi got involved in a physical altercation with a member of Minaj’s entourage.
