Cardi B has something to be grateful for – and many to avoid mentioning it.

Rapper "I Like It" won a trophy for Favorite Artist Rap / Hip Hop at the 2018 American Music Awards on Tuesday, and his granddaughter Kulture was in his head. In a thank you speech not mentioning the woman who, according to the artist, questioned her maternal abilities, the artist Nicki Minaj, she mentioned being a mother.

"I really want to thank my daughter, and not just because she is my daughter," she explained. "When I was pregnant, I was so influenced that I had to say:" Yo, I have to do it, I have to show people what's wrong. "I have to prove that people have wrong." Because they said that I would not get there after having a baby. "

Cardi also thanked her husband, Offset, his music team and Jesus.

When it was Offset's turn to accept a reward for the duo or favorite band – Pop / Rock with the Migos, Cardi B was rife with intense excitement. He thanked her for always supporting him, letting the rapper smile from one ear to the other. "I want to thank you, sexy woman," said Offset, pointing to Cardi B.

His appearance at the AMA comes a month later Cardi's played with Nicki Minaj during an evening at New York Fashion Week, leaving her new mother injured. Cardi later stated that the altercation had decreased because his maternal skills were being decried.
