Cardi B famously accused Nicki Minaj of being jealous of her success, but should Nicki be jealous of Cardi’s car collection as well? You be the judge!
When it comes to celebrity drama, you may as well be living under a rock if you’ve never heard of the Nicki Minaj and Cardi B feud. The two actually share a lot in common and are equally talented.
In a lot of adoring fans’ eyes, the two can actually be good friends while for some, they see one as a threat to the other’s career. But after the allegations that Cardi B’s sister, Hennessy Carolina, threw at Nicki Minaj, the issue is far from dying out. Nicki may have denied all the accusations but Cardi kept on spilling tea so there’s no telling when the squabble will end.
She even accused Nicki of being “jealous” of her success. But what about her car collection? Maybe, though Nicki does drive some sick wheels of her own. But let’s take a look at some of the cars from these rap goddesses’ garage and see if we can answer the question ourselves.
For someone who can’t drive, Cardi has a lot of cars to “take pictures with,” or so she says. This orange Bentley Bentayga is just one of the gems that she keeps in her garage until photoshoot time.
The purchase was made earlier in 2017. It was believed to be the rapper’s gift to herself after her song “Bodak Yellow” made it to the prestigious Billboard’s top ten hits chart – kind of ironic how the orange Bentley barely had a connection with her song. Cardi bought the car in cash but for someone with over $20 million as her net worth, the Bentayga only set her back by $240,000 – no biggie.
While some couples are better off with his and her’s rings, tees or mugs, Cardi B and husband, Offset had another idea. Being a queen of all things extra, Cardi B got a his and her’s Lamborghini Aventador for her and her husband. In her Instagram pic, Cardi is seen sitting on the blue Lambo’s hood while Offset sat on the green one.
Cardi also showed off the receipt in the same social media platform along with a photo of her blue nails against the blue Lambo as a background to match. The rapper pointed to her song “I Like It” where she sings about a Lambo and hence why she needed one.
Aside from the supercars and sports cars, Ms. Belcalis Almanzar also has a fair share of more functional vehicles. She owns a Mercedes-Benz G-Wagen, among others.
The rapper bought this the first time she found out she was pregnant with daughter Kulture. She said that she needed a bigger vehicle for her fam to ride in and a G-Wagen is definitely a great choice. If it’s not obvious by now, Cardi B likes the color orange on her vehicles. Too bad she didn’t pick out a bulletproof one though.
The Lamborghini Urus is another car in Cardi’s garage that’s more akin to a family ride-sharing vehicle than just for photo ops. The Urus is basically a utility vehicle that’s mated with Lamborghini’s snappy genes. Even though it’s not a sports car, the Urus still boasts 0 to 62 miles per hour acceleration in just 3.6 seconds.
A Lamborghini Urus costs about $207,326. Lucky for Cardi, she didn’t spend a dime on it because it was bought for her by her husband, Offset. Oh, the luxuries of being a million-dollar star!
Some say that Cardi B has bad taste in cars, but maybe it’s that most people can’t afford the Lamborghini Huracan she’s been keeping in her garage. The Huracan interior is expensive enough but it’s evidently affordable for the millionaire rapper. She posted this pic of her sitting on top of her Huracan highlighting how she needs to get it wrapped.
Her Huracan is blue in color and according to her, looks like a boy. She says it’s actually a girl hence, the need for a wrap. We just hope those tasteless boots didn’t leave a mark on the precious windshield.
If you’re a Nicki Minaj fan, you’d know how the rapper and songwriter refers to herself as a Barbie, especially in her fresh days in the music industry. Around the time when her hit song “Super Bass” blew out radios, she managed to get her hands on a lavish Bentley Continental GT which she later had customized to be pink.
Her car which Nicki named “Barbie Bentley”, is equipped with a W12 engine and could give out 500 horsepower that can climb even Pikes Peak. Who needs a Ken when you got a ride like this!
We’ve all seen Cardi and her other half’s Aventador, now let’s take a look at the Lambo Nicki has. Nicki’s fave color is pink and just like Cardi, you can easily tell that just by looking at some of her cars. The Lambo in this photo is Nicki’s Aventador which she was seen driving to her clothing line launch in Kmart in 2013.
Nicki isn’t the first Lambo owner who chose this hue for her car. But she definitely spent a handsome amount of cash on having it painted alone.
The Maybach 62S has got to be one of the most fascinating beasts in Nicki’s garage. It was first revealed to the public eye when she made a grand entrance riding it at the MTV Movie Awards last 2014. For a full-size sedan, a $500,000 price tag might be over the top. But it is Maybach so we can’t really complain much.
This beautiful piece of machinery has a curb weight that can go up to 6,000 lbs. But don’t let that fool you, the 604 hp and 738-pound per foot of torque can make it go from 0-60 miles per hour in no longer than 4.9 seconds.
Unlike Cardi B, Nicki Minaj has better taste in vehicles, maybe it’s because she can actually drive? Whatever the reason may be, this Rolls Royce Cullinan is beyond what our pockets can afford. It may not be able to compete with most cars in terms of speed, but it sure can drift. This magnificent piece of machinery cost her over $280,000. But since she does have $100 million to her name, it’s only spare change for the rapper.
Even with the amazing looks of the Cullinan, it still didn’t fit Nicki’s taste. So she decided to blow more cash to have it customized. She decided to add stars to the ceiling, a champagne fridge, and a full red interior.
There’s not much to say about Nicki Minaj’s Range Rover. In fact, she doesn’t even take it out that often. Unlike Cardi, Nicki doesn’t have a kid yet so a family vehicle wouldn’t really fit the image of the rap star. Even so, it’s nice to see another A-list celebrity appreciate the all-American vehicle brand we all love.
Nicki was first seen with her Range Rover from a photo posted on Instagram. Apparently, the Rover in the background was hers while the Toyota Camry next to it belonged to the lucky fellow who took the snap.
