After what feels like years of going back and forth in a court of law, Tasha K and Cardi B have finally come to an agreement to get Cardi B the $1.1 million she’s currently owed as a result of a defamation lawsuit that the “Bodak Yellow” rapper won in 2024.
According to HipHopDX, the two sides have agreed to a five-year payment plan that will see Tasha K slowly but surely pay off her $1.1 million debt. In return, Cardi is set to drop her objection to Tasha’s bankruptcy filing that the YouTuber filed at the end of last year. Part of the deal includes Tasha’s word that she will no longer talk about the Grammy Award-winning rapper in any “derogatory, disparaging, or defamatory” ways.
HipHopDX reports:
The agreement was made in bankruptcy court and only covers a small portion of the overall debt she owes to Cardi – which is $3.9 million. However, Tasha will still be on the hook for the rest of the money when she finishes her bankruptcy repayment plan, as it’s noted that “the Almanzar Claim is non-dischargeable.”
The battle has been ongoing since Cardi B first filed the lawsuit in 2019 over what her lawyers said was a “malicious campaign” to hurt Cardi’s career and reputation. She made videos claiming Cardi had committed sex acts “with beer bottles on fucking stripper stages,” while others accused her of being a prostitute who’d contracted herpes.
Bardi won in 2022, which resulted in Tasha (real name Latasha Kebe) being ordered to take down over 20 illicit and defamatory videos about Cardi and never post about the “Bodak Yellow” rapper again.
As we all know $1.1 million is basically walking around money for someone like Cardi B, but this was never about just money, it was the principle of everything. For that, we can’t be mad at Cardi for going hard for her coin and her reputation. Cardi made sure to even take Tasha’s $640 that YouTube owed her back in 2023. She was not playing!
While Tasha might be done with her Cardi B saga, she still isn’t in the clear as she now has to deal with the likes of Kevin Hart who also hit her with a defamation lawsuit back in 2023.
Like the saying goes, if you don’t have nothing nice to say about someone don’t say anything at all, ’cause these days you might get sued.
