Cardi B has had enough of Joe Budden.
During an X Spaces session on Thursday night, the "Enough" rapper told fans the rapper-turned-podcast personality is "obsessed with criticizing me up and down."
On an episode of his namesake podcast released Thursday, Budden told his co-host Trevor "Queenzflip" Robinson, "We’ll never get another album again. I am standing on it." His co-host also alleged he heard rumors at Atlantic Records that the company is determined to push it out with or without Cardi being on board.
Cardi called the comment a "lie" during her live audio conversation, adding that the record company wouldn't be able to do that because "I do not send my music to nobody. There's only two people that have possessions (sic) of my music, and that's me and my engineer."
"You're not thirsty for my album. You thirsty to criticize it. You thirsty to kick it down… You never compliment me. When's the last time you compliment me?" she continued.

The "Bongos" rapper also alleged Budden has a habit of pinning her against other female rappers "every five or six months."
"You compare females to me that my worst records beat their best records," she said, adding that she's focused on herself rather than her peers' work.
Cardi has been teasing the release of her sophomore album, allegedly coming out this year.
Her debut album, "Invasion of Privacy," dropped in April 2018 and won best rap album at the 2019 Grammys. She's collaborated with several artists and released singles in the meantime, but has yet to release a full-length project.

Budden defended himself on X in a series of posts amid Cardi's Space. "I promise you and can assure you, i will not cover a single thing this girl does for the remainder of her career… Peace & love," he wrote in one post.
"I really just wanted an album from someone whose music i love," Budden said in another.
He later added: "She cursing me smooth out but she still hilarious lol…. I’m going to bed, i apologize to @iamcardib for whatever i did and peace and love to all."
