A growing chorus of voices is demanding that YouTube terminate monetization for Cardi B’s channel on the video streaming platform, following her admission of engaging in date rape and robbery in the past. The prominent Latina rapper, known for her stardom in Western pop music, previously led a life involving thuggery and stripping before gaining fame, particularly with her hit song “Bodak Yellow.”
Cardi B publicly acknowledged drugging and robbing men during her earlier days as a stripper in 2019, stating, “I did what I had to do to survive.” This revelation has sparked outrage among internet users, especially on X (formerly known as Twitter), who are now advocating for an immediate ban on Cardi B’s YouTube page.
Comparisons are being drawn to instances where other public figures faced accusations of sexual assault, resulting in swift shutdowns of their YouTube channels. One notable example mentioned is Russell Brand, who faced such allegations, prompting a rapid halt to his page’s operations.
