It's frustrating how much she keeps name-dropping Offset. Their whole relationship is quickly becoming a pr/image nightmare (for her) and it's becoming more and more clear how much he's using her. People are already starting to turn her lyrics around and into a joke with all these videos of him circulating ("I guess she doesn't turn offset on after-all"/"what happened to 'quick to cut a n- off'?").
Dating rappers is already risky business because when anything goes south, the female will always be bad-mouthed with a tarnished reputation. Nicki has been incredibly smart at this but she also had a pretty sensible team around her. I'm sure Cardi didn't expect that she'd go on to become the bigger star of the relationship but he seems exactly like the type that would trash her/take credit for her success when all is said and done.
I just don't get how anyone at Atlantic didn't see a problem with the fact that the chorus of her new single has him all plastered on it. Say you got the baddest in the game and whatnot but don't actually say the name sis- no-one does that. I hope they get her a PR team, her "realness" is her selling point but there's still a way you have to market that (Rihanna).
---
All that aside, AMAZING look on the "Finesse" feature and Grammy performance. Hopefully they can keep the focus on the music and out of gossip.

I don't think her mentioning OffSet in the chorus to Bartier Cardi is anything to be concerned about now or in the long run. When they break up (which they will), she can just release her female angst anthem against him, only adding depth to her catalog.

If she was a popstar it'd be a lot easier. I feel like rap is still so male-dominated that I feel like all he has to do is make a track calling her all types of names/discrediting her etc and her rep is tainted. Hopefully you're right and times are changing though.
Beyond even just the song, the longer she puts on this united/rider front for the public while more stories and pics/videos of him (and her) leak, the worse it'll be even for said "angst" anthem imo.

She needs to hurry up with that album before she inevitably flops with all the collabs she keeps pumping out and hype dies down.

Everytime I watch that performance, I think to myself "damn, I seriously LOVE Cardi!".
It's so nice to have a female rapper like Cardi take the number one spot. She didn't come up by copying and throwing shots at the legends that paved the way; she came up on her own, being herself, without the desire to stomp everyone else out to get where she is.. She's humble, does her own thing, and has respect...I love that.

I am just so proud of how far she has come. I remember years ago finding out that she'd be on Love & Hip Hop on Pulse and then my sister introduced me to her Instagram videos and I fell in love with her.
I don't think any of us saw this success happening. So happy to see her on the Grammy stage!

Go fester in a hole somewhere with these lies Everything about Cardi is damn near the complete opposite of Nicki Minaj.

And hell, saying she's copying Nicki is basically saying she's copying Lil' Kim and everyone else who Nicki borrowed from.

She has one of the best personalities to emerge in music in a long time. It makes me think of when everyone started seeing Adele in interviews and realizing that she's F**king hilarious and super genuine.

Cardi is unfuckingstoppable. The only thing that’s gonna get in her way is her insecurities. She killed in the Amazon ad.

So she really made Offset ruin her career huh?
Maybe if it happened after her album dropped....but yeah, I think this all but probably cancels her career.

I wish her all the best. I hope she is happy. I'm assuming she will have to pull out of the Bruno tour? She could teach Offset a thing or two.
