“I woke up a little riled up because b###### is trying to put my spirit down, trying to bring me down. You know, usual s###, right. But sometimes God shows up like, ‘Daughter, stop playing,'” Cardi says into the camera. She also pointed out that “Up” peaked at #1 on U.S. iTunes and #3 on U.S. Spotify.

The Bronx-bred rapper added, “I really wanted to go #1 on Apple. But my n#### Pooh Shiesty has his foot on my f###### neck. I went #1 on Apple for literally 30 minutes on Saturday. Then this n#### came back up like, ‘Nah, b#### move out my way.'”

Pooh Shiesty hopped on his Instagram page to respond to what Cardi had to say. The 21-year-old Tennessee rhymer reposted his fellow Atlantic recording artist’s IG message to his own Instagram Story with a caption that read, “Long as it u we ain’t in competition.”
