In a recent Instagram Live session, Cardi B passionately defended herself and her children against criticisms from Offset’s family. The Grammy-winning rapper did not hold back, addressing accusations that she is a “bad mom” and calling out perceived manipulation and gaslighting attempts by her in-laws.

The live session began with Cardi B expressing her frustration: “I told people to stop playing with me. It’s so annoying when you know I think because I’m ghetto or because I’m emotional, people like to gaslight me and they think that they can manipulate my brain.” She made it clear that she would not tolerate any disrespect or attempts to undermine her intelligence and resolve.

The rapper’s outburst came on the heels of recent news about Offset’s family disapproving of her behavior and parenting style. Reports suggested that Offset’s relatives felt Cardi B was overbearing and obsessive, especially given her current pregnancy with another child. This criticism seemed to fuel Cardi’s fiery response.

“Offset’s family says Cardi B is a bad mom,” she repeated mockingly. “They feel that she smothers Offset, she’s obsessive with Offset, and they do not like it.” In her defense, Cardi B asserted her commitment to providing a stable and loving environment for her children, referencing her own upbringing in a large, supportive family. “I grew up with a very huge family, mom and dad, and every part of my family, every aunt, every uncle, every grandparent. So I will not accept nothing less for my kids.”

In a particularly striking moment, Cardi B referred to Offset as her “baby daddy” rather than her husband, hinting at ongoing relationship troubles and infidelity rumors. “I could say my baby father, he’s a great dad,” she said, choosing her words carefully. This choice of terminology did not go unnoticed by her fans and followers, sparking further speculation about the state of their marriage.

Cardi B’s message was clear: she will fiercely protect her children and will not allow anyone, including Offset’s family, to undermine her or her parenting. “What you’re not going to do is manipulate me when I put my guards up for my kids,” she declared. “You don’t gotta like me, but you’re going to respect my kids. And if you’re not going to love my kids properly, don’t look for them or don’t speak on them.”

The rapper’s emotional and unfiltered rant underscores the ongoing tension within her personal life, especially concerning her relationship with Offset and his family. Despite the criticism, Cardi B remains unapologetically herself, defending her choices and her family with the same fervor that has defined her career.

As the drama unfolds, fans and observers continue to speculate about the future of Cardi B and Offset’s relationship. One thing is certain: Cardi B’s dedication to her children and her willingness to speak out against perceived injustices remain unwavering.
