Cardi B Says She Would Never Raise Her Kids In An NYC Hood, Calls Out B*llying & X3noph0bia Among Students: “They Got The Devil In Them”

#CardiB says she would never raise her children in a New York City hood, expressing frustration over bullying, violence and xenophobia among young people.

During a recent livestream, the Bronx-born rapper delivered a message to parents about teaching their children kindness.

“Teach your kids to be fcking kind. Keep your hands to your motherfcking self. Kindness take you a long way, believe it or f*cking not.”

Cardi specifically called out xenophobia, which refers to prejudice or hostility toward people from other countries.

“New York City, the schools, the kids are extremely xenophobic,” she said.

“Baby, you come from another country, bitch, oh, bitch, they gonna pick on your ass, bitch, real f*cking bad.”

She continued:

“It’s extremely sad. That’s why I would never raise a kid in a New York City hood.”

Her comments come amid reports surrounding the fatal shooting of a 15-year-old boy in the Bronx.

According to NBC New York, the victim’s father believes bullying may have played a role in his son’s death. Authorities have not confirmed that connection.

While Cardi did not identify the victim by name in the provided clip, she appeared to reference a recent killing involving young people.

“Those kids that killed that boy, what the f*ck is wrong with y’all?”

She continued:

“It’s not even the afternoon, bitch, it’s the morning. It’s before 9:00 AM.”

The rapper questioned how someone could decide to take another person’s life without provocation.

“What makes you wake up in the morning like, ‘Today is the day that I’m just gonna kill somebody for no f*cking reason’?”

Cardi also encouraged parents considering raising children in NYC to consider moving elsewhere.

“Move to Pennsylvania, bitch. Because kids in New York are just so fcking nasty, and they are so fcking xenophobic.”

She added that the behavior isn’t limited to any particular race or nationality.

“It’s everybody. Everybody.”
