Funkmaster Flex Accuses Cardi B Of Paying For Radio Play

Leveluphiphop_ posted a video of Cardi B on Instagram talking about all the love and support she got since she’s released “Bodak Yellow:”  That's when DJ Funkmaster Flex hopped in the comment section and accused the rapper of paying DJs to get her music played.“I think Cardi is a great entertainer and has great songs! I gave my opinion when she said she was ‘King of NY’ and when I found out she didn’t write her own songs!” he said. “I met Cardi and her management and I respected his and Cardi’s hustle! BUT LETS BE CLEAR.. CARDI’S TEAM AND MANY OTHER ARTIST (in the beginning of career) PAY DJS TO PLAY RECORDS AND SAY THAT ‘THEY ARE HOT’ (Since I never took a penny from a rapper I’m not scared to speak on it) I have emails I’ve gotten from labels over the years with names and figures!” In April, the Hot 97 DJ accused the “Bodak Yellow” rapper of not writing her own rhymes.
