Cardi B Requests For Album Cover Trial To Be Postponed Due To Birth Of Her Child

American rapper Cardi B has requested a postponement in her 'Gangsta Bitch' cover art trial, which she was sued over nearly four years ago.

Cardi B's debut mixtape "Gangsta Bitch Music Vol. 1" sees her sitting back and enjoying a beer while a man with an intricate back tattoo places his head between her legs.

Kevin Brophy claimed in his lawsuit against Cardi that he is the one in the photo, but that he never posed for it or provided permission for his likeness to be used. He is seeking at least $5 million in damages, claiming that the photo has ruined his life.

Cardi B has filed a new appeal with a US court, asking for the trial to be postponed because she just gave birth to her son on September 4th.

According to TMZ, the rapper believes she should not be obliged to fly from the East Coast to Southern California next month since she needs to be with her newborn for obvious reasons.

She requested a 75-day trial extension, citing COVID-19 concerns associated with travel and lengthy periods of time in public venues such as airports, hotels, and the courthouse.

The application has yet to be decided by the trial judge.
