Cardi B’s mic toss took social media by storm with many wondering what really happened. And now the singer is suspected of battery.

In a now-viral video shared on social media, Cari B was seen retaliating after a concert goer standing at the edge of stage tossed her drink at the rapper. And after seeing many angles of the situation thanks to TikTok and a new charge involved, users are chiming in.
