Cardi B Says Cam’ron Inspire Her to Diss Coach Bags on “Like What (Freestyle)”
On Saturday (March 2), a video surfaced online of Cardi B explaining her viral “like a Coach bag, baby this ain’t what you want” lyric on her “Like What (Freestyle)” song. Many fans believed that Cardi was dissing people who love Coach bags. However, she said that’s not the case.
In the clip, which can be viewed below, Cardi appears to be on Instagram Live explaining her verse on “Like What (Freestyle).” The Grammy Award-winning rhymer revealed that it was Cam’ron who inspired her to throw a lyrical jab at Coach bags.
Apparently, during her high school years, Cardi was wearing Coach rain boots but stopped wearing them after Cam dropped his 2011 track “Hey Muma.” The Harlem rhymer asserted on the song that New York women don’t rock Coach bags.
“Yo girl, get a notepad (for what?)/You ain’t got no swag/And you so fine, it’s so sad/Still riding coach, need a coach bag/Let me coach you, no coach tags (what that mean?)/Get rid of that coach bag,” Cam raps.
“So in 2011, everybody started getting rid of their Coach s**t,” Cardi explained in the video. “So when I was [recording] the song, that’s what I was thinking about.”
“I’m not trying to be on some rich s**t and everything. This is just some real New York s**t,” she added. “I’ma buy me a Coach bag tomorrow, ya hear me? I’m not tryin’ to offend anybody.”
