The rap world has once again been thrown into chaos—this time not by a song or a diss track, but by a JBL speaker. Yes, you read that right. Cardi B allegedly hurled a JBL Bluetooth speaker at Rah Ali during a heated encounter in France, and the incident has now become the internet’s latest obsession. Adding fuel to the fire, Joe Budden himself couldn’t resist reacting to the bizarre yet explosive story, leaving fans questioning whether this feud has finally reached its breaking point—or if it’s only just beginning.
The Airport Encounter That Shocked Everyone
According to Cardi’s own retelling, the drama began at an airport in Cannes, France. Cardi claims she unexpectedly spotted Rah Ali—her longtime rival since their infamous 2018 altercation—in a wheelchair. The encounter shocked her.
“I turned around and I see this woman in a wheelchair looking distressed,” Cardi said, unable to believe her eyes. “I asked her, ‘You good?’”
But the situation didn’t end there. Cardi admitted that despite Rah Ali’s condition, she felt that the years-old beef wasn’t over. “We in France and I owe this [expletive] a lick,” Cardi confessed, before quickly adding she didn’t want to risk going to jail overseas.
The JBL Attack
What happened next has the internet divided. In her own story, Cardi admits that after tension escalated, she grabbed her JBL speaker and launched it directly at Rah Ali’s head. “Yes, I threw it. And yes, it connected,” Cardi said, unapologetically.
The reaction online was instant. Memes about “Cardi B’s weapon of choice” went viral. Fans debated whether the act was petty or powerful, while critics questioned the sanity of resolving old grudges with a portable speaker.
Joe Budden Weighs In
Joe Budden, always quick to comment on messy industry drama, reacted live on his platform. While recounting the story, Joe broke into laughter, stunned by Cardi’s play-by-play.
“The fact that she said she didn’t want to fight in front of her security because he’s a big-time Crip—why is she offering that information?” Joe asked, shaking his head. “And then throwing a JBL speaker? Come on, man, this is comedy.”
Joe suggested that if Cardi really felt at peace after the throw, it meant she had to land the hit. “Knowing Cardi, if she didn’t connect, she wouldn’t be letting this go,” he explained.
The Rah Ali vs. Cardi B History
The feud between Cardi B and Rah Ali is long-standing, going back to their violent clash in 2018. That incident—widely rumored to have been fueled by Rah’s loyalty to Nicki Minaj—ended with Cardi leaving a high-profile fashion event with a noticeable bump on her forehead. Ever since then, “on sight” has been the motto.
For Cardi, the encounter in France was the moment she had been waiting for. “I feel like I’ve been waiting for this for a long time,” she admitted. “Now that I got my lick back, we’re good.”
But Rah Ali reportedly disputes Cardi’s version of events, suggesting she exaggerated. According to Rah, the truth isn’t as straightforward as Cardi claims. This denial only adds to the controversy.
Mothers in Mayhem
Perhaps the strangest part of the saga came at the end of Cardi’s story. After admitting to hitting Rah with the JBL, Cardi bizarrely pivoted to maturity. “We’re both mothers. We’re older now. I’m in my 30s, she’s in her 40s. We don’t need to be doing this.”
The contradiction left Joe Budden in stitches. “How do you say all that about throwing a speaker and then wrap it up with ‘We’re mothers’? That’s gold,” Joe laughed.
Nicki Minaj’s Name Lurks in the Background
The shadow of Nicki Minaj looms large over this feud. Rah Ali has long been associated with Nicki, with many fans believing she acts as Nicki’s unofficial enforcer. Joe Budden himself speculated on whether Nicki truly appreciates Rah putting her reputation and freedom on the line.
“I’ve seen people put their freedom on the line for celebrities, only to be forgotten later,” Joe said. “If I was Nicki, I’d be lifting Rah up way more than these industry friends.”
This comment reignited conversations about loyalty in the hip-hop industry, and whether Rah’s allegiance to Nicki is truly rewarded.
Fans Divided, Internet Obsessed
Social media exploded with debates. Some praised Cardi for “finally settling the score” in her own wild way. Others criticized her for being childish, pointing out that grown women—and mothers—shouldn’t be resolving conflicts with flying electronics.
“Cardi really said forget fists, I’m using JBL,” one fan tweeted. “This is the most 2025 thing ever.”
Another countered: “Imagine being in your 30s and throwing speakers in airports. Grow up.”
Will This Be the End?
Cardi insists the feud is over. “You hit me, I hit you. We even now,” she declared. But given the history of back-and-forth between the two, fans aren’t convinced. If anything, this JBL saga has only cemented their feud as one of hip-hop’s strangest and most entertaining rivalries.
As Joe Budden concluded: “On site means on site. And if on site means a JBL speaker in France, then that’s what it means.”
The real question now: Will Cardi and Rah Ali finally move on—or will the next chapter involve another unexpected household item as a weapon?
