0:00On March 31, Cardi B just caught a big win in court, her legal beef over the track. Enough Miami got fully dismissed. Texas producers Joshua Frouestro and Miguel Aguilar, known as Chemical, 956, sued her back in 2021. They claimed she jacked elements from their song, Greasy Fry Bread, without clearance, and dragged in her labels Atlantic Records and Warner Music Group, too. The case hit the skids on Monday, March 30, when the judge ruled the Texas court had no personal jurisdiction over it. Even worse for the producers, the judge said the claims would flop on the merits anyway. Fans are buzzing about this drop, especially since Cardi has stayed unbothered amid the drama.

1:03angle. No word yet if Chemical, 956 will try refiling elsewhere, but Cardi is straight dominating her little misdrama tour, selling out two nights. At Madison Square Garden.
