Cardi B is asking her fans not to bully BIA amid their ongoing feud.

On Thursday night (April 3), the rapper brought her Little Miss Drama Tour to Boston’s TD Garden for a sold-out show in her rival’s hometown. Despite performing her scathing BIA diss track “Pretty & Petty,” Cardi surprised the crowd with a call for peace.

“We not gonna do that. Don’t bully that girl on social media. Don’t do that, don’t do that,” she told the crowd immediately after performing the song. “She's gonna wanna beat the shit out of me after today. If I see you, I see you, I don’t give a fuck—it’s up and stuck. But don’t bully her on social media, I don’t like that.”

The Boston show is part of Cardi's ongoing tour, where she regularly performs "Pretty & Petty." The diss track opens with the line “Name five BIA songs, gun pointed to 'ya head/Bow, l'm dead.”

After a clip from Cardi’s first “Pretty & Petty” performance circulated online in February, BIA responded, “Can u name someone with more bms than receiving yards? I can! and I know that... ykwnvm [three cry-laughing emojis].”

BIA's remark seemingly referenced widespread reports that 32-year-old wide receiver Stefon Diggs, who had a son with Cardi last November, fathered multiple children with different women in a year, while alluding to his 2026 Super Bowl loss to the Seattle Seahawks.

Cardi and BIA have traded shots since 2024, though BIA previously said a full response to “Pretty & Petty” would be "beneath" her.

Meanwhile, Cardi and Diggs reportedly called it quits prior to the 2026 Super Bowl.

Prior to the Boston concert, City Councilor Julia Mejia presented Cardi with an official resolution declaring April 2, 2026 "Cardi B Day" in the city.

“Cardi represents excellence at the highest level, and demonstrates that we can show up as we are in #AllMeansAll spaces & places, and thrive [crown emoji]," Mejia wrote on Instagram. “Thank you for being an inspiration to so many, and for using your platform to amplify voices and stories that go often unheard.”
