Cardi B audio about Nicki Minaj’s Pink Friday 2 detected as AI

When beef gets automated

A viral audio clip showed Cardi B allegedly saying she would ‘outsell’ Nicki Minaj's Pink Friday 2 album. The phrase spread like wildfire across social media, racking up thousands of shares and reigniting the famous rap rivalry that goes back years in history. Fans dissected every word, accounts reposted the original, quoting the most controversial parts. But the buzz was for nothing, because, in fact, Cardi never said it.

We checked it with our audio detection tool and it indicated that the exact phrase mentioning Nicki Minaj’s album ‘Pink Friday 2’ at 0:55 in the video was AI-generated voice cloning. Someone took real Cardi audio, spliced in fake words, and watched the internet explode.

This is textbook AI voice cloning designed to manufacture drama. The deepfake audio was smooth enough to fool casual listeners, but our AI audio detector caught the inconsistencies in vocal patterns and frequency analysis. The piece highlighted in orange on the detection timeline shows exactly where the fake audio was inserted.
