US Senator Martin Heinrich Makes Boldy Shocking Confess After Cardi B Break Social Media Silence On Cost Of Living In The US
Cardi B was recently live on Instagram, where she addressed the growing inflation in the US, when she was sharing with her fans about an incidence where she was trying to help a friend out in finding an apartment in NYC.
Because all the apartments in NYC were all very expensive, the Bongos rapper then suggested that her friend pick one in Bronx. However, upon research, Cardi realized that rents of apartmnets have skyrocketed in her hometown as well. Cardi said on the live session:
“Yo, why I go on StreetEasy and I start to look for apartments in the Bronx for them. Yo, why rent for them is so expensive? How the f**k is rent so expensive in the most f**kin’ cheapest borough?”
The Please Me rapper then went on to apologize to her fans for asking them to purchase her album in this economy, saying:
“I don’t know how people are surviving. I am so sorry for asking y’all to buy my album and this is how the economy is right now, that the rent is so f**king high and crazy in the Bronx, no matter where. I am so sorry.”
Cardi, who campaigned in support of Kamala Harris in the 2024 presidential campain, then went on to mention the Trump administration in her chat, saying that if she brought the issue of rising rents up with them, she’d hear something like “suck it up” in response.
The rapper continued:”You know what I don’t like? I don’t like that there’s a lot of single people, there’s a lot of students, there’s a lot of people that are working nine-to-five and because they’re working they don’t get no help from the government. I always hated that.”
Cardi B’s statement drew the attention of Senator Martin Heinrich. The New Mexico representative issued a statement agreeing with the rapper, adding that the Trump administration was making life more expensive for all citizens, and nothing was being done to stop it in the Congress.
