Cardi B Says ‘Coach Bag’ Line From “Like What” Was a Cam’ron Reference: ‘This Is Just Real New York S–t’
On “Hey Muma,” Cam’ron raps, “Yo, girl, get a notepad / 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 / Get rid of that Coach bag.”
“In 2011, everybody started getting rid of their Coach shit. Honest truth, it was really because of Cam’ron,” said Cardi, describing herself as a major Dipset fan.
She continued, “When I was doing this song, that’s what I was thinking about. It’s like, ‘Bitch, do you want that or do you want this? You want a Chanel or you want this bag?’ Now everybody’s jumping me, I’m not trying to be on some rich shit and everything. This is just a real New York shit. I ain’t trying to offend none of y’all. I’ma buy me a Coach bag tomorrow, you hear me?”
There doesn’t seem to be any hard feelings from the fashion house, who tweeted from their account, “We love Cardi!!” to which the rapper responded with a “love ya” and a number of emojis.
