Cardi B showed up to a New York courtroom on Tuesday (June 25) after a Grand Jury indicted the platinum-selling star late last week.
TMZ reports a judge informed Cardi she’s being charged with attempted assault in the second degree and various other charges for the alleged strip club beatdown last August.
During the hearing, Cardi’s attorney declined to have all charges read aloud, so Cardi simply blurted out, “Not guilty sir, honor.”
Cardi is facing 12 charges, including two counts of felony attempted assault with intent to cause serious physical injury. Other charges include misdemeanor reckless endangerment, assault, criminal solicitation, conspiracy and harassment.
If convicted on the new felony charges, Cardi could face up to four years in prison.
As she left the courthouse, Cardi was greeted by a barrage of fans. Over the weekend, she picked up a 2019 BET Award for Album Of The Year thanks to her work on Invasion Of Privacy.

Cardi B’s journey from Bronx stripper to platinum-selling rapper is nothing short of miraculous. But, not everything is roses and unicorns for her. Earlier this week, the Grammy Award-winning artist was reportedly indicted by a Grand Jury and is facing several charges, including two felonies.
TMZ reports Cardi was slapped with 14 charges in total stemming from a strip club brawl at Angels in Flushing, New York last August.
The “Bodak Yellow” phenom was arrested in October after allegedly ordering an attack on two of the club’s bartenders. She reportedly accused one of the women of sleeping with her Migos husband Offset. A brawl broke out and chairs, hookah pipes and tables were thrown. As a result, one of the women was injured.
Consequently, Cardi is being charged with two counts of felony attempted assault with intent to cause serious physical injury, misdemeanor reckless endangerment, assault, criminal solicitation, conspiracy and harassment, among other charges.
The mother of one previously rejected a plea deal, which would have given her a conditional discharge in exchange for pleading guilty to a single misdemeanor.
Last month, prosecution sources said they decided to take it to the Grand Jury because of information they uncovered during their investigation, although they wouldn’t dive into details.
But, as they say, the show must go on. Despite the indictment, Cardi showed up at the ASCAP Rhythm and Soul Music Awards in Beverly Hills with Offset on Thursday night (June 20), where she won an award for Songwriter of the Year.
Everybody wants to be a gangster. LMFAO at this culture of ghetto retards.
Nothing will happen to this THOT. What does need to happen is people need to stop giving this trash their money. Get away from women like Cardi and start paying their respects to fine women like Candace Owens.
Even for those who disagree with Candace owens, they should at least agree that she is a model women. She’s classy, polite, clean cut… Cardi B embodies the WORD THOT.
Looks like Cardi is that bitch. Everyone wants to talk shit until your check gets cashed. Then ya’ll want to sue. Who’s the real BITCH??
Are you retarded or a low income blaque? My bad it’s kind of hard to tell the difference. You know the bozo race and all
Song writer of the year never wrote a song lolol
Candace Owen isn’t black so why would we pay attention to that kkk loving beezy while we have the Beyonce who represents black excellence.
Shaking her ass in thong on stage? Beyonce is black excellence indeed lmao.
Bwest, Candace Owens is black, you retard. Sorry you’re a racist and don’t want to accept her. She’s a fine black woman and all should aspire to be like her. She’s no Democrat welfare slave, so I get why trashy idiots hate her. When she speaks they can’t even understand what she says because the morons who hate her have a pea brain.
Lol at not understanding Candace Owens or economics or anything political so instead of issuing a rebuttal you say “she ain’t black”. Ok you mean she’s not asking for reparations or having people beat up at strip clubs so she’s not black? Must be. Lmao look at Cardi, I will reenact Waco Texas in New York if a penny of my taxes goes to reparations . Fuck you want pathetic losers, why don’t you try earning a living for once
What does Candace Owens have to do with this topic ? I bet if she were a liberal Dummycrat you would be ready to bowing down like the peasant you are.
How does Retardi B wipe her ass with those claws?
That’s what Offset is for
I love dressing up like Cardi B
