Rapper Cardi B has responded to the conservative political pundit Ben Shapiro after he condemned the explicit lyrics of her new song featuring Megan Thee Stallion, "WAP."
The New York rapper tweeted: "I can't believe conservatives soo mad about WAP," and continued to repost a collection of fan-made memes and remakes of Shapiro reciting "WAP" lyrics on his internet talk show.
Multiple images tweeted compared Shapiro to "The Simpsons'" Waylon Smithers in an episode where he covers his eyes as strippers dance around him.
Shapiro, the co-founder and editor of the conservative website The Daily Wire, broke down the lyrics of Cardi B and Megan Thee Stallion's new song in what is now a viral clip.
"Wet a-- P-word, P-word is female genitalia," Shapiro clarified while reciting Cardi B's verse.
After his acapella rendition, Shapiro condemned the lyrics, saying: "This is what feminists fought for. This is what the feminist movement was all about, and if you say anything differently it's 'cause you're a misogynist, see?"
"WAP" is Cardi B's latest viral hit, and has picked up the number one spot on iTunes, Apple Music, and Spotify whilst dominating discussion around censorship and sexuality on social media. Since the song's release, several conservative politicians and commentators have condemned its explicit nature.
James Bradley, a Republican currently running for California Congress, tweeted his opinion on the song.
"#WAP (which i heard accidentally) made me want to pour holy water in my ears and I feel sorry for future girls if this is their role model!" Bradley wrote.
Cardi B and Megan Thee Stallion have also awoken "Tiger King" star Carole Baskin, who described the "WAP" music video as "Lurid," and criticized the pair's use of exotic big cats saying that they potentially used "big cat pimps" to procure the exotic animals for the video.
