Cardi B is pushing back against claims that she received $2.5 million for a Jamaica festival performance that never took place.
The dispute involves BZR WKND Jamaica, where the rapper was scheduled to headline on October 18, 2026. Festival promoter Ryan Burke has claimed that Cardi B received her full performance fee but failed to appear. He has also indicated plans to pursue legal action.
Cardi B has rejected those allegations, maintaining that organizers failed to meet contractual payment deadlines. Her representatives say the full amount was never paid and that the organizers did not fulfill their financial obligations.
