Tokyo Toni Roasted For Cardi B Diss Track Over “Like What (Freestyle)” Beat

by

Tokyo Toni is one of the funniest media personalities out there. Overall, she is someone who has never shied away from being herself. Although this has sometimes led to some online feuds. This is something that can be said about a lot of people. When you comment on a wide variety of topics, someone is bound to get offended eventually. However, Tokyo has her fanbase and she continues to keep them entertained, no matter what. Oftentimes, this is done through freestyles directed at those whom she feels have wronged her.

There have been times when Tokyo Toni has attempted to beef with someone who doesn’t even have any issues with her. This usually leads to some pretty hilarious results. In fact, that happened just last night as Tokyo Toni came through with a freestyle directed at none other than Cardi B. In fact, this new freestyle was done over the “Like What Freestyle” beat. As you can see below, some of the bars needed a bit of work. However, Tokyo did seem proud of herself and the disses she was getting off.

Unfortunately, the fans themselves were not feeling it. In the comments section of The Neighborhood Talk, there are some who feel like Toni needs to put the mic down. “They need to put her, Momma Dee, Tia Kemp all in the same room,” one person wrote. “Next time, turn the beat down a lil bit Auntie,” said another. While fans were being negative, we’re sure Tokyo Toni will continue to do her thing. If negative comments could get in her way, she would have stopped a long time ago.

As is the case with nearly all of Cardi B‘s releases, her latest cut, “Like What (Freestyle)” has everyone talking. While many are lauding Cardi for her scorching bars, a particular line has been interpreted as potential shade toward a fashion brand.

From the very beginning of the song, the Bronx rapper reminds us that she’s not the one to play with

“Classy and a c*nt / Blocks and money gettin’ spunt / Like, like what? / Like a Coach bag, baby, this ain’t what you want,” she raps on the controversial.

Many listeners took this line as a dig on the Coach brand, but Cardi took to Instagram Live to set the record straight. She explained that the line was inspired by Cam’ron’s 2011 track, “Hey Muma” and that she was simply speaking to the culture of New York fashion.

“I’m not trying to be on some rich sh*t and everything,” Cardi said in her live. “This is just real New York sh*t. I ain’t trying to offend none of y’all.”

Coach also showed her some love back with a shout-out on Twitter.

Shortly after, Cardi took to TikTok, where she shared a video of herself shopping at the Coach store and buying a bag.

So, it’s safe to say it’s all love between the two powerhouses.

Cam’ron Accuses Cardi B Of Snitching On Him

by

Cam’ron jokingly called out Cardi B on Instagram, Monday night, for “snitching” on him with her recent defense of “Like What.” She had been facing backlash for dissing the branch, Coach, on the new song. She explained herself by accusing Cam’ron of making the bags uncool over a decade ago.

“Yo @iamcardib this ain’t ‘BardiB’ stand on them bars!! I followed you 10yrs ago cause u ain’t give a f*ck!! Now you copping a plea!! Lol. How u ‘ain’t on no rich sh*t’ and you RICH?

On the song, Cardi raps: “Classy and a c*nt / Blocks and money getting spunt / Like, like what? / Like a Coach bag, baby, this ain’t what you want.” She explained herself on social media afterward, noting that she’s a big Dipset fan. “When I was doing this song, that’s what I was thinking about. It’s like, ‘B*tch, do you want that or do you want this? You want a Chanel or you want this bag?’ Now everybody’s jumping me,” she said. “I’m not trying to be on some rich sh*t and everything. This is just a real New York sh*t. I ain’t trying to offend none of y’all. I’ma buy me a Coach bag tomorrow, you hear me?” Check out Cam’ron’s response to the comments below.

Coach Caught Wind Of Cardi B’s ‘Like What’ Lyric Seemingly Dissing Their Bags And Came Through With A Response

Last week, Cardi B came through with a new music drop, unveiling “Like What (Freestyle).” On the track, some noticed that Cardi seems to go after the Coach brand, as she says in the chorus, “Like a Coach bag, baby, this ain’t what you want.” Two things there: The intent behind the lyric isn’t what it might seem, and Coach has offered a response to the song.

In a video shared over the weekend, Cardi explained that the lyric wasn’t a dig at Coach, but was instead a reference to Cam’ron and Vado’s 2011 song “Hey Muma,” which features the lyric, “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.”

Coach saw that video and replied on X (formerly Twitter), “We love Cardi!! [heart emoji].” Cardi shared Coach’s post and added, “[weary face emoji] love [heart emoji].”

Meanwhile, Cardi recently hinted at more new music coming soon, saying in a video, “I’m not letting my anxiety, I’m not letting what haters say, I’m not letting what fans say… if I do a song, I’m gonna just f*cking drop it. Well, I got no choice because I’m dropping my album this year, so stay tuned for the announcement. But don’t play with me!”

Tokyo Toni Accuses Cardi B Of Stealing Her Look, Sneak Dissing Her On “Like What (Freestyle)”

by

It’s no secret that Tokyo Toni has her fair share of issues with Cardi B. After all, she is an avid Nicki Minaj stan, and has even used her platform to connect with the Queen of Rap in the past. Of course, considering her allegiance to Nicki, and budding rap career of her own, supporters have been expecting her to weigh in on Cardi’s new “Like What (Freestyle)” which she dropped last week.

Fortunately, Tokyo came through over the weekend, hitting Instagram Live to share her thoughts on the track with supporters. Almost immediately, the reality star and mother to Blac Chyna grew suspicious, and developed a theory that some shade was thrown her way. According to her, the apparent jab must be an attempt on Cardi’s part to get her to promote the song.

Tokyo Toni Is Suspicious

“Did she say red lips?” Tokyo asked, shocked that the alleged diss would be so blatant. “Did she just say red lips? Please somebody find [the lyrics] right now before I lose it.” She went on, insisting that there’s nobody else Cardi could be rapping about, as she’s known for her signature red lips. “Oh my god,” she continued, “She stole my whole sh*t. She stole my whole image on it… You know what? If I didn’t know any better, she wants me to promote this.”

“They think they slick,” Tokyo added. “It just hit me… Who the f*ck wears red lips other than me? There’s Rihanna, but you ain’t talking about no motherf*ckin’ Rihanna, b*tch. Rihanna ain’t made a song since 1980.” What do you think of Tokyo Toni accusing Cardi B of stealing her look and dissing her on her new song? Do you think she’s on to something?

Cardi B Gets Love From Missy Elliott & Timbaland For “Like What (Freestyle)”

by

Cardi B’s new single “Like What (Freestyle)” is still making big waves this weekend as one of its biggest releases. It’s a fiery track that samples Missy Elliott and Timbaland’s classic beat off the 1999 single “She’s a B***h,” which appeared on the former’s sophomore Da Real World and was produced by the latter. Moreover, the duo shared excited co-signs on their Instagram Stories when the song dropped, with Timbo writing “Da [crown emoji]” and Missy sharing a post of the song’s cover art with some dancing emojis. Regardless of what fans think of the record, this is the highest praise that a sample-using artists can get.

Of course, Cardi B is far from the first person to use this beat after Missy Elliott and Timbaland. BIA sampled the instrumental for a banger recently, so did Flo Milli with some similarly great verses over it, and it was most famously used by Ski Mask the Slump God for his 2017 cut, “Catch Me Outside.” This song defined the SoundCloud rap generation in our eyes, and its creator took to Twitter to comment on the similarities between “Like What (Freestyle)” and his own work. When fans assumed he said this in a negative or shady way, he quickly clarified that he actually likes the Bronx rapper’s take.

Missy Elliott & Timbaland Reportedly Salute Cardi B

Overall, this excitement and endorsement simply builds up even more hype for Cardi B’s next album. With recent confirmation that a Shakira collab will also show up on it, die-hards are really looking forward to this new direction. It’s been six years since Invasion of Privacy, and although there’s been no shortage of singles and big moments to keep her in the news cycle, there’s a lot more competition these days in the femcee world. As such, it’s do or die time.

Meanwhile, what do you think about “Like What (Freestyle)”? Do you agree with fans’ praise of it or is this legendary duo overrating this release?

Fans were stunned by the brazen move, with chat messages like “OMG” and “MOTHER???” able to be seen in the various clips. The footage quickly spread online, with the Bardis going wild, and Cardi’s haters criticizing the move.

Cardi was clearly feeling herself after dropping “Like What”, her first new single in nearly a year. Fans have been absolutely gagging over the track.

Latto & Cardi B Go Platinum With “Put It On Da Floor Again”

Meanwhile, despite a lack of new music, Cardi has had plenty to celebrate this year. Last month, Latto and Cardi’s 2023 summer banger “Put It On Da Floor Again” went platinum. Released in June 2023, the track was a Cardi-infused remix of Latto’s April hit. While the original track only peaked at No. 25 on the Billboard Bubbling Under chart, the addition of Cardi saw the remix peak at No. 13 on the Billboard Hot 100. Furthermore, the remix was widely praised by critics. “Cardi matches and then exceeds Latto’s energy. Once again, Cardi is endlessly quotable,” Tom Breihan of Stereogum wrote.

Furthermore, the high-energy video was full of brief cameos as Cardi and Latto twerked and flexed across a variety of retail outlets. Offset and BabyDrill both made an appearance, as did LSU’s Angel Reese. Additionally, Cardi name-dropping the 2023 NCAA National Champions led the school to invite her to campus.

Cardi B’s ‘Like What (Freestyle)’ Is Missy Elliott-Approved, And Missy’s Method Of Co-Signing Was Adorable

by

On Friday, March 1, Cardi B released her “Like What (Freestyle)” alongside a salacious Offset-directed video, putting Cardi’s rap prowess front and center. Uproxx’s Aaron Williams led this week’s “Best New Hip-Hop” with it, and Missy Elliott appears to agree with that assessment. Missy’s opinion would matter regardless, but it especially matters in this case because Cardi freestyled over a sample of Missy’s “She’s A B*tch” from her 1999 Grammy-nominated album, Da Real World.

Missy Elliott spent Friday responding to fans’ “Like What” reactions on X (formerly Twitter). She mostly replied with various Memoji stickers — the heart hands, the dancing salsa lady, a purple heart, the prayer hands — but the recent Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame inductee had something to say to one person.

Someone going by Jus on X wrote, “Do these children really not know that it’s a freestyle to Missy Elliott’s song?? Like wtf is going on in these schools? In these homes??!! Just uncultured! lmao” Missy initially replied with another Memoji, which led to Jus writing, “Missy we gotta educate the children like it’s getting out of hand. Also, I love you and your music! You are a LEGEND! A ICON!” To that, Missy wrote, “Yes….The ones before my era taught us also.” Of course, there were two Memojis accompanying that message.

Missy also promoted”Like What” on her Instagram Story.

Ski Mask The Slump God Shouts Out Cardi B’s Single For Sounding Like His Work

by

When some fans listened to Cardi B’s new single “Like What (Freestyle),” they might’ve thought, “Haven’t I heard this before?” Well, it’s because the beat that she and her team a sampled, Timbaland’s “She’s A B***h” for Missy Elliott’s 1999 album Da Real World, is a pretty popular beat. Flo Milli spit some amazing bars over a sample, BIA recently slid on a drill flip of it, and most notably, Ski Mask the Slump God used the beat in its unaltered form for one of his biggest hits -– and a staple of the SoundCloud rap era, “Catch Me Outside.” Moreover, he also noticed the parallels.

“Sounds Kinda Familiar,” Ski Mask the Slump God quote-tweeted Cardi B’s post linking the song on Friday (March 1). “I Like The Song Why Yall So Angry Lol,” he followed up with mere minutes after his original message on the social media platform. Of course, the Bardi Gang probably didn’t take too kindly to the assumption that the Florida rapper suggested biting, especially given how much they liked “Like What (Freestyle).” However, this shows that not only is this a reductive way to categorize similar inspiration points that stand as classics in the game, but that there’s a lot of mutual respect there most of the time.

Ski Mask The Slump God Reacts To Cardi B’s “Like What (Freestyle)”

After all, Missy Elliott cosigned “Catch Me Outside” back in 2017, she showed love to Cardi B’s new record, and Ski Mask the Slump God made it clear that he’s a fan of the Bronx MC’s take. If anything, this is probably more of an indication of how fervently his fanbase accused Cardi of this, and how viciously the Bardi Gang responded. But the “Black Forces” lyricist has been in the game long enough to know that there are so many songs you can pull out of just one sample. Cardi should know this too, and it would be interesting to see if she’s a fan of “Catch Me Outside,” too.

Meanwhile, the “Get Up 10” femcee is hyping fans up for her new album this year, one of 2024’s biggest upcoming releases. How do you think it will stack up -– and do you need Ski on the “Like What (Freestyle)” remix? However you may feel, drop your thoughts down in the comments section below. Also, check back in with HNHH for the latest news and updates on Cardi B and Ski Mask the Slump God.
