Cardi B Defends Offset: Rapper Accused of Releasing 'Shooting' Songs, Too Soon After Takeoff's Death

Cardi B is defending her husband Offset, who was accused of having clout by a comic.

Nicole Arbour made some controversial social media statements over the weekend, referring to a new Offset song that the "Bodak Yellow" hitmaker shared on her Instagram Story.

In her post, her husband wore a Joker costume and rapped to his new song with the lyrics, "Catch a body broad day/Shoot 'em in the hallway."

While it's unknown when the video was shot, Offset, actual name Kiari Kendrell Cephus, dressed up as the Joker for Halloween this year, so it's safe to presume it was shot on or before October 31.

Meanwhile, Takeoff, a Migos member, died on November 1.

According to Nicole's tweet, "Man... few weeks after his cousin was murdered over a dice game."

"Offset's making new music about shooting people and shooting places up. Not a single thing was learned."

Takeoff was shot and died in the early November morning owing of a dice game, for the uninitiated. His death was declared a murder since the 28-year-old died from "

gunshot wounds to the head and body that penetrated into the arm."

Cardi B instantly responded to Nicole's post with multiple now-deleted tweets supporting Offset and stating that he hasn't made any songs since their friend's death.

The comedian then shared an Instagram Story of Offset from Cardi B's account, to which Nicole retweeted and captioned, "just posted this and I was sure it was Offset rapping about murder with a fake gun. Honestly, my bad if that's not what this video is."

While Cardi B has yet to comment, Nicole doubled down on her first remark by tweeting a follow-up, claiming that even if Cardi B did not post the video, she still advocated "senseless violence in a community."

"It's sad af that all these young guys are dying, something has to CHANGE."

Nicole further insisted that this is "real talk" and asked why Cardi B is still "not getting it yet."

"You're a damn leader and you can make a change in the name of Takeoff," she added.

Unfortunately, Cardi B tweeted Nicole, "YOUR MOTHER IS GOING TO DIE," along with a taunting smiley face emoji.

Cardi B, on the other hand, did not go down without a fight, uploading screenshots of Nicole Arbour's previous racist statements on social media. Later, the rapper removed the tweet.

After all of the back and forth, Nicole asked Cardi B to appear on her podcast "The Arbour Effect," but the singer-rapper only responded with a response video captioned "Me right now."
