In other news, the Bronx rapper has been sued by her former manager Shaft for $10 million for “breach of contract, unjust enrichment and defamation.” According to Complex, Shaft has worked with Cardi since 2015, but has been “frozen out of her career.” In a statement released to Complex, a spokesperson for Shaft said, “Since discovering Cardi B in 2015, Shaft has played an integral role in developing her music career and public image. While he is proud of their successful collaborations as she evolved from Instagram influencer to music megastar, Shaft is disappointed by her actions to freeze him out of her career, which are detailed in the complaint. Shaft is confident that his lawsuit will validate his conduct and substantiate his legal claims.” Court documents obtained by Complex also said that Shaft claimed that Cardi “falsely communicat[ed]” to her fianc Offset and members of her team that “Shaft is robbing me.” Offset reportedly convinced Cardi to sign with Quality Control.

Variety announced in March that Cardi signed a management deal with Quality Control’s Kevin “Coach K” Lee and Pierre “Pee” Thomas, joining acts like Lil Yachty, Lil Baby and Migos.
