Cardi B said she had to warn her sons ‘no law protecting you,’ not to argue with ‘white boys’ after Karmelo Anthony conviction

"I sure learned something from this," said Cardi B in an interview. "I learned to tell my sons: do not argue with no white boys, because baby, ain't no law protecting you if something goes down with them. That's what I learned from this case."

The rapper added that she has instructed her sons to "walk the f*ck away" if they start arguing with a white boy, because, in her opinion, "the law don't protect [black people]."

A Collin County jury found 19-year-old Karmelo Anthony guilty of murder in the April 2, 2025, stabbing death of 17-year-old Austin Metcalf at a high school track meet. Anthony, a black student from Centennial High School, stabbed Metcalf, a white student from Memorial High School, in the chest after Anthony refused to leave Metcalf's team tent. Anthony confessed to the stabbing but claimed self-defense. The jury rejected that claim after no evidence of self-defense was shown and sentenced him to 35 years in prison.

The black community quickly turned the murder into an unfounded issue about race, raising hundreds of thousands of dollars for Anthony and supporting him along the way.

After his conviction, Cardi B posted on X: "Wow! Just freakin wow! DISGUSTING...This is not justice, this is trying to make an example!!!" She later recorded her thoughts on a livestream, expressing sympathy for both families but arguing that the case would have unfolded differently if the races were reversed.

Prosecutors presented evidence that Anthony approached Metcalf and others, escalated the situation, and used a knife he had brought to the event to kill the victim. Multiple witnesses, including black students, described the confrontation and testified that Anthony was the aggressor. Anthony fled after the stabbing, and Metcalf died at the hospital.

Black supporters of Anthony arrived outside the courthouse in force, making the case about race instead of a horrific murder.
