Of course, Martin and Coretta's youngest daughter, Bernice was offended by the skit. But on August 28, she tweeted out a response in regards to Cardi's apology. The 55-year-old expressed a cold desire to meet with the "I Like It" singer.
The 25-year-old has not yet publicly made a statement about the video but Rip is taking full responsibility for the offensive jokes.
