The Bronx native was deeply affected by the bodycam footage of the tragic killing.
Rapper Cardi B had a few choice words for longtime foe Candace Owens after the right-wing pundit callously suggested that Sonya Massey’s shooting by a white police officer wasn’t racially motivated.
In an X Spaces conversation earlier this week, captured by online users, the Bronx native slammed Owens while speaking to her listeners, stating: “Today [Candace] said something so disturbing about the Sonya Massey case,” Cardi said. “For you to sit here and say that ‘Oh not everything is racial. I know that this is sad, but this is not something racial. There’s more white people that get killed by the cops.’ […] Girl shut up.”
The “Bongos” rapper continued: “You don’t feel one little bit of empathy, a little bit of sympathy of how this woman died? There was no argument, there was no conflict, there was no raised voice, and she got shot. He knew in the back of his head because she was a Black woman that he was going to get away with it. Not only did he think that, but the department thought that because they didn’t tell her son or her father that a cop shot her.”
Cardi’s comments followed the latest episode of Owens’ show, where Owens discussed the shooting, dismissing it as a simple police error and criticizing those who claimed it was racially motivated.
“Police officers are human beings, there are mistakes that happen,” she said. “The idea that now you’re going to use this situation … To then try to make Black Americans believe that this happened simply because she was Black, is pointedly ridiculous.”
Massey, a 36-year-old Black woman from Springfield, Illinois, was shot and killed by now-former Illinois sheriff’s deputy Sean Grayson at her home on July 6 after calling the police for help.
Grayson has pleaded not guilty to charges including first-degree murder, aggravated battery with a firearm, and official misconduct. If convicted, he faces 45 years to life in prison
