The “WAP” rapper, who is expecting her third child with Offset , shared photos on social media Sunday (Sept. 1) of her bare baby bump while sitting on a motorcycle in front of a shuttered storefront spray painted with graffiti.
“I wanna meet my little boo boo soo bad already,” Cardi captioned the photos on Instagram .
Shortly after the post, eagle-eyed fans noticed the word “pedophile” was written over the word “homesick” on the security gate behind Cardi.

“Cardi B seems to be taunting Nicki Minaj’s family by taking photos in front of graffiti that reads ‘pedophile,’” one person wrote on X (formerly Twitter).
“Lol wait why there’s Pedophile written on the wall??……is this a nicki shade?” another fan added .

I KEEP TELLIN YALL TO LEAVE ME THE F-K ALONE !! If I’m saying I’m not on that time DONT MAKE ME GET ON THAT TIME. Unrist yourself!!”
