Cardi B has claimed she was asked to appear on Little Mix’s new single, Woman Like Me, instead of Nicki Minaj.
In a string of Instagram videos, the Bodak Yellow rapper had it out with the Queen star, as their rivalry escalated once more.
And in one clip, the mum-of-one fumed at the 35-year-old for claiming she was trying to ‘stop her bags’ and make sure other artists didn’t work with her, in a recent instalment of Queen Radio.
‘You’re out here saying that I’m trying to stop your bag, right? But I’m actually helping you get a bag,’ she claimed in a video shared with her 34.6million followers.
‘That Diesel deal that you got, yeah that came to me first and I had to decline it because I’m already working with fashion brands. Which y’all are gonna see because there’s more than Fashion Nova.
‘Then, that Woman Like Me record… Yeah I had to decline it because I’m doing a lot of pop records so I can’t over exaggerate myself but that came to me first.
‘And then they gave it to you.’
It appears the 26-year-old had receipts as she pulled up the media on her phone, and blared out the Little Mix banger.

As she danced along to the track, the section for Nicki’s rap was blank, with just a backing track playing out.
She then told viewers: ‘You hear that opening verse, right…. Period.’
Cardi and Nicki have been trading barbs for months, but it all came to a head between them last month at New York Fashion Week.
The female rappers ‘came to blows’ at a Harper’s Bazaar Icons party, with videos of a ‘brawl’ being shared online showing Cardi appearing to hurl a shoe at Nicki, before leaving the bash with a nasty-looking bump on her forehead.
Taking to Instagram, the I Like It star claimed the row kicked off over the rapper ‘liking tweets disrespecting her parenting skills’ – something she has denied.
She began: ‘I’ve let a lot of shit slide. I let you sneak diss me, I let you lie on me, I let you attempt to stop my bags, fuck up the way I eat! You’ve threatened other artists in the industry, told them if they work with me you’ll stop fuckin with them!! I let you talk big shit about me!!
‘I addressed you once in person, I addressed you a second time in person, and every time you copped a plea!! But when you mention my child, you choose to like comments about me as a mother, make comments about my abilities to take care of my daughter is when all bets are fuckkin off!!
‘I’ve worked too hard and come too far to let anybody fukk with my success!!!!
‘Bitches talk all that shit in they raps but in real life they pussy!! This shit really is for entertainment!!’
After a few weeks of trading barbs, it all appeared calm between the pair – until Nicki shared a message on her Queen Radio show, offering $100,000 (£78k) for footage of their ‘fight’.
