"There's a whole bunch of people that was in the f**king slow class, and ya'll not gonna muthaf**king make me feel like ya'll. They ain't gonna make me feel like them, so I just have to get the f***off this s**t," she said during a livestream.

Fans are getting worried about Cardi B announcing a hiatus because the follow-up of her debut album "Invasion of Privacy" is on the line.

"I should already start talking about the album because I'm going to be putting it out very soon," she said earlier this year and revealed that the album will be released in 2024.

"I wasn't even thinking like that...for this album, I'm just holding it because I feel like I'm missing a couple of things.

"[...] I missed out on a lot of videos I wanted to do, I missed out on touring - I just missed out on a lot of things, so I just gotta make sure that everything is just planned out."
