After Cardi B and her entourage were kicked out of a Hilton hotel in Albany, New York early Sunday morning (October 22), the Bronx native took to Instagram to clarify what went down. Despite complaints from other hotel guests that they could smell marijuana coming from her room, she denies there was any weed involved.
“Albany is known for being racist,” she said. “Every single time niggas from New York get locked up and get sent upstate, they always complaining about COs beating them and I really experienced that shit yesterday ’cause how the floor that I was staying in my hotel room, it smell like weed? So the cops came in the middle of the night knocking on my manager and on my door talking about that we were smoking weed and we gotta kicked out.
“Now, if you know me, I don’t even talk about smoking weed because everybody knows that I do not smoke weed,” she continued. “I get very paranoid and none of my team members smoke weed. If they was to kick us out for something else, a’ight, but for weed? I’m not taking that because we do not smoke. We could all get drug tests. Nobody smokes. Nobody smokes, especially when I’m sleeping and wild sick. You not going to do that to me. Mind you, everybody on the floor was caucasian, but you wanna kick us out. Fuck outta here. I will not.”
A rep for the Albany Police Department reportedly said the hotel’s manager called the police around 1 a.m. to report a party and the smell of marijuana. Hotel staff reportedly went up to the second floor where they were staying and asked Cardi’s team to leave. When the cops arrived, they were already getting ready to make their exit.
