Hey, so Nicki Minaj just showed some major support for Cardi B, and things are heating up! Cardi’s divorce has already been one of the wildest things we’ve seen in a while—who can forget her announcing a pregnancy and a divorce all in one day? But now, Nicki Minaj has waded into the chaos, and it’s getting even crazier.
You probably know about Nicki’s beef with Offset, right? Well, it looks like she’s taking her chance to get back at him. She’s been calling him out as a gold digger and has shared some pretty wild details about him. Trust me, you’ll want to hear what she’s been saying—she really went in!
It’s pretty clear now that Offset has been leaning on Cardi B’s success for a while. When they first got together, Offset was riding high with Migos, who were one of the biggest groups in the world. They were selling out shows and making serious money. But after the Migos split and Takeoff’s tragic passing, things have changed dramatically for Offset. With Migos not coming back and his solo career struggling, he’s faded from the spotlight.
Luckily for Offset, Cardi B’s been his ride-or-die. She made sure he stayed in the money by getting him involved in her McDonald’s deal and even pushed for him to be part of the Baby Shark movie, despite the original plan being just for her and their kids. Cardi’s been the one keeping their finances afloat, but Offset hasn’t been the best with his money. While Cardi’s focused on saving and investing, Offset has been known for his wild spending. So, even though they both made a lot of money together, Cardi’s the one who’s actually holding onto most of it—about 95%, to be exact.
Cardi owns their home in Atlanta where she and the kids live, and also another place in New Jersey for her mom. Offset, on the other hand, hasn’t done as well with his finances. And it doesn’t stop there—he’s also in serious trouble with the IRS. Shortly after Cardi left him, Offset got hit with a $1.6 million tax lien, plus another one for nearly $33,000. So, while Offset might be living a certain way on the outside, it’s clear he’s struggling financially. And you can bet Nicki Minaj is probably enjoying this drama, considering her history with Offset.
Nicki Minaj and Offset have never been on good terms. What started with Nicki’s feud with Cardi B soon morphed into something deeper, with Offset developing his own grudge against Nicki. Things really exploded last year when Offset and Nicki’s husband, Kenneth Petty, got into a messy confrontation that even led to Kenneth being put under house arrest. As you’d expect, Nicki was fiercely protective of her man.
The drama kicked off when a video surfaced of Kenneth and his crew outside, directly calling out Offset and threatening to confront him if he ever showed up. Kenneth’s friends were seen taunting Offset, saying things like, “Offset, where you at? That’s it, got his spot, that [expletive] I’m [expletive] on Kanye [expletive] no up man, we Big Zoo outside [expletive] big que, right?”
Things took a darker turn when Kenneth threatened to harm Offset, making comments like, “Merk Offset [expletive] money man what’s up man you don’t know [expletive] they said you don’t know [expletive] that vacation planning your funeral [expletive] all the way to the street [expletive].”
It’s one thing to stir up trouble, but doing it while on probation and at your age is seriously reckless. Kenneth was quickly criticized for his actions and for dragging Cardi into the mess. Nicki got caught up in the chaos as well. The tension was so high that Kenneth even leaked private messages between him and Offset, showing their heated back-and-forth.
In the messages, Offset asked Kenneth where he was and said, “Where you located? You old men and females business with no money for war. Don’t post me either since you a gangster, right? You live in Charlotte too.” Kenneth fired back, “I’m outside heavy, ain’t hiding from no man, especially no rap man. I’m outside gangster, shut the [expletive] up man you ain’t even getting no get back for them guys killing your people.”
Offset replied, “You a grown man talking about a woman, you’re a pee,” and added, “You guys are too old and don’t be outside,” along with, “You can think what you think, but you broke and ain’t far from me catching already. I’m not going to say else to you online.” Kenneth responded, “I ain’t hiding, my man. Get in line.” Offset shot back, “Get some money. All this broke shame between two men that’s living off their women. But anyways, Offset continued with goofiness. You men ain’t standing on no business or no money. You broke, I can tell. Goofy man.”
Kenneth then threw a low blow by bringing up Takeoff’s murder, saying, “Use them money to get them men that killed your partner, my G. That’s Gangsta.”
Nicki Minaj seemed pretty heated about Offset’s recent public embarrassment and her partner’s role in it, which might explain why she’s now taking jabs at Offset after his fake lifestyle was exposed. Kenneth Petty and his crew decided to challenge Offset directly, leading to a whole lot of drama. We’re not entirely sure why Offset suddenly messaged Kenneth or what escalated the situation, but there’s buzz that something happened at the VMAs that stirred things up. Offset’s unexpected feud with Kenneth seemed pretty out of the blue, so this theory seems plausible.
Kenneth’s video, where he threatened Offset, blew up online and landed him in hot water with the parole board. He’s now on house arrest for four months. According to the legal documents, Kenneth recorded the threatening video while hanging out with someone who had a criminal record. The probation officer thought stricter monitoring was needed to keep him in check and ensure he followed the rules. It’s like Kenneth got put on a time-out.
The documents also mentioned that Kenneth might have to spend up to 120 days on home detention with GPS tracking. It’s quite a twist of fate for Kenneth, who boasted about being tough, to end up with an ankle monitor. His attempt to show off ended up backfiring spectacularly, leading to a lot of online ridicule.
Meanwhile, Nicki Minaj jumped in, accusing Offset of making false reports to the police and Child Protective Services about her family, which she claims led to armed police visits at her home. She vented her frustration, noting that despite the drama, her family remained unaffected and she continued to succeed in her career. She took a stand against those trying to bring her down, emphasizing her resilience and accomplishments.
So, Nicki Minaj and Offset have had their own little drama going on, totally separate from her beef with Cardi B. It looks like Nicki’s actually more upset with Offset than with Cardi. She’s been very supportive of Cardi throughout her divorce, even publicly backing her and throwing shade at Offset. She’s accused him of mooching off Cardi now that she’s filed for divorce. Nicki tweeted things like, “Stop beating up on yourself. Handle it gently,” which many took as a dig at Offset. She also posted stuff like, “De dummies, was it worth it?” adding more fuel to the fire, though it wasn’t immediately clear who she was talking about. It seems like Nicki’s holding onto this grudge because Offset’s actions are affecting her man, and she doesn’t let things go easily when it comes to her loved ones.
But there’s more. Rumor has it that Offset is scrambling to come up with enough money to pay off his debts and avoid further embarrassment. He’s trying to twist the narrative to make it seem like the headlines are misleading, but people aren’t buying it now that it’s clear he’s not as wealthy as he’s claimed. It’s going to be interesting to see how this unfolds over the next few weeks, but things aren’t looking good for Offset. Fans are chiming in with comments like, “Offset used Cardi, married her, and now their money is all tangled up,” “Offset was probably with Cardi because he’s broke, not because he loved her,” and “Offset’s financial mess is catching up to him—karma’s coming.”
What do you think? Is Nicki really taking shots at Offset, and do you think Cardi is going through with the divorce? Drop your thoughts in the comments below
