Cardi B deactivates her Instagram after posting video about Grammy haters

WATCH: Cardi B opens up about battle with postpartum depression

It should have been a week of celebration for rap sensation Cardi B.

But after making history as the first solo woman to win best rap album at the Grammys, she's now without an Instagram account, which she has deactivated.

So far, there's no word on why Cardi, 26, pulled the plug, but the move comes after she posted an expletive-filled video Monday, punching back against haters who said she didn't deserve to win the Grammy.

"I’m seeing a lot of b------ today and I saw a lot of s--- last night, and I’m sick of this s---," a clearly angry Cardi said.

Cardi goes on to talk about how hard she worked to finish "Invasion of Privacy" while pregnant, before the birth of daughter Kulture.

She also took a few seconds at the top of her video to apparently refer to BET's since-deleted tweet about Nicki Minaj during the Grammys, saying, "Meanwhile, Nicki Minaj is being dragged by her lacefront."

“It’s not my style for people to put other people down to uplift somebody else,” said Cardi. “That’s not my style and that’s not what I’m with. I don’t support that.”

BET's tweet got them dragged online, and earned a promise from Nicki that neither she nor any Young Money artist would "be a part of the BET Experience or award show."

Cardi's Twitter was still active as of early Tuesday morning, and everything there is peace and love.

Thank U Jesus!!!! Look at God ???? Congratulations boo @iamcardib you deserve it!! So happy for you ?? #GRAMMYs
