Cardi B’s “Little Miss Drama Tour” has reportedly grossed over $70 million despite the rapper nearly cancelling her final show in Atlanta over a dispute with the venue staff. The rapper’s tour kicked off in Palm Desert on February 11 and concluded with two back-to-back shows at the State Farm Arena in Atlanta, Georgia, on April 18, 2026.
According to XXL Drama, Cardi B’s tour earned her multiple milestones in her career. The tour, which grossed over $70 million and sold 453,000 tickets across 35 dates, earned the title of the “highest-grossing debut arena tour by a female rapper.” Additionally, Cardi B became the first female rapper to sell out two back-to-back shows at the Kia Forum in Los Angeles and consecutive shows at Madison Square Garden in New York City.
Despite her success, the rapper nearly canceled her April 18 show at the State Farm Arena in Atlanta after an alleged argument with the venue staff. According to Billboard, Cardi B was seen having a heated argument with some staff, accusing them of being disrespectful towards her team. In a video captured on Instagram Live, the rapper can be heard saying:
“Your f**king employees are being disrespectful … I’m not performing today… We got in here, your employees are being f**king rude for no reason, being rude for no reason. I feel a certain type of way, because you being disrespectful. I did 35 shows, and I never had a problem, and we’ve been kind to everybody.”
Despite the hiccup, the rapper continued with her show and went onstage for the concluding concert of her first-ever headlining arena tour. Following this, Cardi B took to her X account to cryptically post about the supposed argument at State Farm Arena, urging people with power to treat others with “kindness and respect” and not “abuse” it.

The rapper’s tour was filled with memorable moments, including guest appearances and performances from Megan Thee Stallion, Lil Kim, Tyla, Meek Mill, GloRill, and Kehlani, among others.
On April 19, 2026, the rapper took to her Instagram account to post a video titled “A LETTER IS NOT ENOUGH,” where she shared her experiences about the tour. Cardi further added that the tour went “really smooth because we all did a great job.” She also thanked her guests and jokingly added that she would find someone to be their kidney donor if they ever needed one, adding:
“I also want to say thank you [to] everybody that came out, from the celebrities that just came to see me just to have a good time, and I just want to say thank you to the celebrities that came out to perform with me… If y’all ever need a kidney, I’m gon’ to find somebody to give it to y’all. I can’t give it to y’all. You don’t even want my kidneys, b**ch.”
Cardi B also thanked her fanbase, the “Bardi Gang,” and applauded her fans’ efforts to travel long distances and dress up for the tour, saying:
“Thank you to Bardi Gang. Thank you [to] everybody that came and just made this moment so special to me. It’s one thing that y’all came out, but some of y’all drove for hours. Some of y’all took flights. Some of y’all put so much effort [into] y’all outfits that it’s like, ‘Oh, y’all tryna outdo me… Hold on, like, I gotta step it up’… I hope I never get used to this feeling.”
Cardi B’s sophomore album, Am I The Drama?, topped the Billboard 200 chart following its release last September.
