Earlier this year, Tasha K was ordered to pay Cardi B roughly $4 million in damages for defamation, invasion of privacy and intentional infliction of emotional distress.
“I ain’t got it. Listen, I ain’t got it. I ain’t got it,” Tasha said during the interview. “Don’t ask me for no money. I ain’t got it. But listen, we have business and things in place that takes care of things like this. Now, of course, the appellate court and the supreme court is in process right now.” Peep the clip above.
Afterwards, the “UP” rapper hopped on Twitter with a subliminal (but not so subliminal) response:
Think is a game but trust imma come for everything …..BBHMM,” Cardi tweeted.
BBHMM means “B*tch Better Have My Money.” Bloop.
Even after losing the lawsuit, Cardi claims Tasha K hasn’t stopped trashing her online, so she filed additional paperwork early March 2022. The rap mom-of-two filed a permanent injunction against Taska K, requesting that a federal judge ban her from posting “harmful and disgusting lies.”
“Plaintiff filed this action because defendants refused to stop targeting her with harmful and disgusting lies,” Cardi’s legal team wrote in court documents obtained by Billboard. “Damages alone are inadequate to address the constant ongoing threat of defendants repeating the defamatory statements [and] defendants have explicitly said that they will continue publishing the defamatory statements unless an injunction is issued.”
According to TMZ, Cardi also accused Tasha K of transferring her assets in an attempt to not cough up the cash. Hmph.
Back in January, the 29-year-old rapper-turned-Nickelodeon star was initially awarded $1.25 million in her libel suit against the 40-year-old YouTuber. It was increased to $3.8 million after the Georgia judge awarded Cardi another $1.5 million in punitive damages and an additional $1.3 million in attorney fees.
The lawsuit stemmed from lies Tasha spread about Cardi on her YouTube account where she alleged the former “Love & Hip Hop” star had herpes, abused cocaine, and was a prostitute. During her testimony, the “WAP” raptress said all of the online rumors caused her to feel suicidal. Those feelings and thoughts were magnified as she had given birth to her daughter, Kulture, around the time all of the drama popped off (2018). The NYC raptress filed the defamation lawsuit against Tasha K in 2019.
The jury found Tasha K guilty of “defamation of character, invasion of privacy through portrayal in a false light and intentional infliction of emotional distress.” After the ruling, Tasha shared a video addressing the verdict, where she said had expected that outcome being that she was up against the “corporate machine.”
