Cardi B has shared a message with the people who doubted that she would make sense on the remix of Flo Milli‘s “Never Lose Me.”
While walking around Target on Thursday (March 21), Cardi decided to go live on Instagram and offer a bit of an “I told you so” for any of her detractors.
“When the Flo Milli remix came out, bitches were acting like they were so mad that I was on it,” she said. “[Mocking voice] ‘Cardi not even gonna sound good on this.’ And then when it came out, you know the haters — some of them didn’t even hear it. They was like, ‘She just don’t go with the song.’ And now there’s over 10,000 TikToks of people talking about, [singing] ‘Bitch could never be me in her life!’”
She continued: “Like the pretty bitches is talking about, [singing] ‘Bitch could never be me in her life!’ So I wanna say thank you to the pretty bitches. That’s why you can’t go with what people say. I have to go with what the artist say.
“And the artist — which is Flo Milli — said she fucking loved the verse. And she’s a real bitch. She ain’t gonna be like, ‘Oh yeah I love it!’ just because she wanted me on the song. She loved it. And SZA loved it, bitch. I wanna say this why you can’t listen to no fucking body.”

Flo Milli teased the release of the remix of her viral smash, “Never Lose Me,” featuring Cardi B and SZA, ahead of her new album Fine Ho, Stay, which dropped last Friday (March 15).
Milli has seen tons of social media attention since releasing the single, which topped the Billboard TikTok 50 chart back in January.
According to Billboard, the rankings on the chart, which officially launched back in September, are based on the total number of both the number of TikTok videos made using the track, and the amount of likes, comments, shares, and combined views these posts receive.
The outlet confirmed that the song has been used in various viral videos, including videos that follow a trend of “creators displaying medals and trophies with captions describing what they got those accolades for, generally tongue-in-cheek (example: having the worst ex).”

Other artists on the chart include Leslie Gore, Sophie Ellis-Bextor (and her early 2000s hit, “Murder on the Dancefloor,” which has enjoyed a resurgence in popularity thanks to the film, Saltburn), and Nicki Minaj.
In December, Billboard reported that the Alabama native’s buzzworthy hit had entered its Hot 100 tally less than a month after it was released alongside a Lil Yachty remix. It marked Flo Milli’s first-ever appearance on the chart.
Just days after the 23-year-old released another remix of the song with Bryson Tiller, the original debuted on the coveted Hot 100 chart at No. 84 for the week of December 30. Earlier this month, the track made it onto the Hot R&B/Hip Hop Songs and Hot Rap Songs lists, where it currently sits at No. 21 and No. 17 respectively.
