Lady Lesshur is clearing Cardi B today as she made some pretty huge claims about the latter on allegedly ripping off her beat and idea of a song without properly crediting or compensating her.
Last June, Cardi B also met the receiving end of backlash after her album, "Invasion of Privacy," was ranked on Rolling Stone's coveted album list.
Lady Lesshur, Cardi B Feud After Allegation of Copying Emerges
Responding to a fan comment relating Cardi B's "Cheap Ass Weave" to the 7th Anniversary of her song "Queen's Speech Ep4," the British rapper had something to say to the "Invasion of Privacy" hitmaker.
You mind asking Cardi if she can break me off a likkle [little] change she used my beat/idea before her big break and is now a millionaire and I got paid 0," Lesshur responded.
What Lady Lesshur is talking about is her 2015 song "Queen's Speech Ep4," which has notable similarities to Cardi B's "Cheap Ass Weave" released in the same year.
Cardi, who was tagged numerous times on Lady Lesshur's explosive tweet, responded swiftly.
Bardigang were to the rescue, even tagging Lesshur as "desperate" for clout and attention but the "Quaranqueen" hitmaker is not yet done.
According to Lady Lesshur, it would be "nice" to get something from the song, but she revealed that she wanted credit after all.
"it's mad I had to tweet banter 4 a response when I dm u years ago about it. I was cool wen I thought it was just YT cover but it's on streaming sites as "cheap azz weave" nw & urs comes up b4 mine so yes dollar & credit pls," she clapbacked.
Meanwhile, the "Finesse" rapper was relentless - claiming that she does not see her song anymore on Apple Music. She also promised to remove the song from all streaming services including YouTube.
However, as of this writing, the song is still uploaded on YouTube, Spotify, and even Soundcloud.
Cardi B released "Cheap Ass Weave" in 2015, way back before she even had signed on to her current label, Atlantic Records.
The female rapper is not new to the backlash, as earlier this year, her debut album, "Invasion of Privacy," was ranked No. 16 on Rolling Stone's The 200 Greatest Hip-Hop Albums of All Time.
The high placement evidently angered hip-hop fans as the album managed to outrank classics like Nas' "Illmatic," and N.W.A's "Straight Outta Compton," among many other OG hip-hop albums.
Cardi was also surprised by the high ranking and said she "did not motherf**king ask for it."
