It’s the divorce twist no one saw coming — Offset is reportedly seeking spousal support from Cardi B, and the hip-hop world is divided over it. The revelation came in May, when the Migos rapper amended his divorce petition to not only request joint custody of their three children but also ask for court-ordered financial support from Cardi.
Now, Fat Joe and Jadakiss are chiming in — and they’ve got very different views.

Fat Joe: “You Can’t Be a Rap Star Asking for Somebody to Pay Your Bills”
On the latest episode of the Joe and Jada podcast, Fat Joe brought up the Offset-Cardi situation, clearly skeptical about Offset’s spousal support request.
“You can’t be a rap star asking for somebody to pay your bills,” Joe said bluntly.
“I love my sister Cardi B. I know how hard it is for her to come from where we came from and make a couple of dollars and be successful.”
Fat Joe’s take echoed the sentiments of many fans online, who questioned why a successful artist like Offset would need financial assistance from Cardi.

Jadakiss: “Let’s Get a Win for the Other Guy One Time”
Jadakiss, however, offered a more measured response — and appeared to side with Offset.
“To each his own,” said Jadakiss. “I don’t feel no kind of way. It’s never a problem when it happens the other way, so sh*t, let’s get a win for the other guy one time.”
His point? When women request spousal support from high-earning husbands, no one bats an eye. So why not the reverse?

Stefon Diggs Enters the Chat: New Boyfriend, New Headlines
To make things even messier, the podcast hosts brought up Cardi B’s rumored new flame, NFL star Stefon Diggs, and the viral photo of him rocking matching braids with Cardi and Offset’s son, Wave. Jadakiss called it a “low blow” but also reminded listeners that we don’t know what’s really going on behind closed doors.
Meanwhile, Cardi seems unfazed by the drama. She recently celebrated six months with Diggs on Instagram, clearly moving forward while her legal team handles Offset’s demands.

What’s Offset Asking For?
So far, Offset hasn’t put a dollar amount on his spousal support request, but his legal filing calls for:
• Spousal support payments
• Joint legal and physical custody of their three children: Kulture, Wave, and their infant daughter
• A court determination on child support and property division

Cardi B and Offset, once one of hip-hop’s most talked-about couples, seem to be closing the chapter for good — and not without controversy. With Offset’s surprising request and Cardi’s high-profile rebound with Stefon Diggs, this split is playing out like a modern-day rap soap opera.
One thing’s for sure: whether fans agree with Offset or not, this divorce is far from simple — and the court of public opinion is still in session.
