Cardi B apologized Tuesday following controversy about her song "Girls."
"We never try to cause harm or had bad intentions with the song. I personally myself had experiences with other woman," Cardi B wrote.
"I though the song was a good song and i remember my experience."
"I know i have use words before that i wasn't aware that they are offensive to the LGBT community," she added. "I apologize for that. Not everybody knows the correct 'terms' to use. I learned and i stopped using it."
Singers Hayley Kiyoko and Kehlani were among those to criticize "Girls" online."Every so often there come certain songs with messaging that is just downright tone-deaf," Kiyoko said in an Instagram post Friday.
"Hate to be THAT guy but there were many awkward slurs, quotes, and moments that were like 'word? word,'" Kehlani tweeted. "there. were. harmful. lyrics. period."
She apologized in a tweet Monday, saying the song was written to represent her "truth."
"I am sorry how I expressed myself in my song has hurt anyone. I would never intentionally cause harm to other LGBTQ+ people or anyone," the singer wrote.
