Cardi B’s Nearly-Naked Twerking Video Distracts Thirsty Fans From Nicki Minaj Drama

In today’s world, twerking is practically a requirement if you want to be a successful rap diva. Of course, using sexuality to boost sales and streams isn’t anything new for celebrities, but the general public appears to be growing tired of the same antics playing out on social media time and time again. Nevertheless, the socialites and lyricists continue to flaunt their bodies for the camera – especially Cardi B. The New York-born entertainer has been seriously feeling herself lately, following the release of her “Jealousy” collaboration with Offset, as well as her and Megan Thee Stallion’s second-ever musical link-up.

The Houston hottie and the Hustlers actress came together on “Bongos” earlier this month. Bardi revealed in a recent interview that an astounding $2 million was spent on the NSFW music video they filmed to accompany the song. The mother of two has promised her fans that her sophomore album is still on the way (despite Charlamagne Tha God’s doubts), and will likely arrive in the early months of 2024.

Cardi B Can’t Stop Shaking Her “Bongos”

As she keeps busy preparing that, Cardi proved on Saturday (September 16) afternoon that she’s not at all worried about the tension building between her husband and Nicki Minaj’s man. Kenneth Petty and his affiliates have been busy sending shots at the 30-year-old and Set via IG, while the former Migo has been living lavishly on a private jet. As for the Grammy Award-winning rapper, she’s occupying her time with modelling beautiful designer outfits and reminding us just how talented she is at throwing it back.

“Comfortable always 🖤💙,” the East Coast icon wrote in the caption of today’s photo dump. Clearly, Cardi and her man aren’t too concerned about what the Queen of Rap and her crew are doing – they’re too busy focusing on their own lanes. If you’re not all caught up on the situation that’s currently unfolding between Offset and Kenneth Petty, you can read all about the drama at the link below.

Offset Laughed Off Alleged Threats From Nicki Minaj’s Husband, Kenneth Petty: ‘F*ck They Talkin’ About’

It appears there may be beef between former Migo Offset and Nicki Minaj’s husband, Kenneth “Zoo” Petty.

Over the course of the weekend, some video footage surfaced of Petty with a group of friends calling out for Offset on an empty street in New York City’s Theater District.

“Offset, where you at?” said an affiliate of Petty. “We outside.”

According to HipHopDX, Offset and his wife, rapper Cardi B, were allegedly staying at a hotel in the neighborhood where this took place. But neither Offset nor Cardi reportedly stepped out to confront Petty and crew directly.

In another clip, Petty is heard threatening to “knock the veneers” out of Cardi’s mouth.

Shortly after the footage — the date of which it was shot unclear — surfaced, Offset took to his own social media platforms, where he seemingly addressed these alleged threats.

“I’m getting off a jet, and he’s funny,” Offset said. “F*ck they talkin’ about? We hoppin’ off jets. Talkin’ bout ‘outside.’ Extremely broke!”

Later, a screenshot of an Instagram DM from Offset was shared by an affiliate of Petty. In the screenshot, Offset appears to asking for the affiliate’s location, seemingly wanting to confront him in person.

At the time of writing, it’s unclear when or where this alleged beef began.

You can see clips above.

Cardi B is a Warner Music artist. Uproxx is an independent subsidiary of Warner Music Group.

Nicki Minaj Asked “Where The Opps At?” At VMAs As Kenneth Petty & Offset Clash

This might be the most heavy rap beef of all time in which the opposing parties have rarely, if ever, actually dissed each other outright. Moreover, the cold war between Nicki Minaj and Cardi B continued in a pretty intense way this week. At the VMAs, the Trinidadian MC’s husband Kenneth Petty and his friends posted up at the ceremony and boasted on social media that they were looking for Cardi B and Offset. The former Migo even responded on social media some time after these clips went viral, calling his opps broke from a jet plane after his alleged message to one of Petty’s associates surfaced.

It’s a bit convoluted at the moment, but the point is that Nicki Minaj’s camp was looking for Cardi B and her company during and after the awards show. Now, new videos are adding further context to the whole ordeal, such as the 40-year-old’s response to a fan’s question at the VMAs. Furthermore, they asked “Where the opps at?” and she seemed to have an excited response to that. However, her words aren’t heard in the clip, so people are truly making a mountain out of this very small molehill.

Nicki Minaj Wonders Where The Opps Are, Might’ve Referred To Offset & Cardi B

Tensions between Cardi B and Nicki Minaj come up from their fanbases for the most part, at least right now. As two of the biggest female rappers in the game with past history, few MCs are compared and contrasted with as much scrutiny as those two. It’s unfortunate because, within the world of femcees, this is a far-too-common practice that divides and disincentivizes cooperation and support rather than empower women in a male-dominant and male-privileged industry. The girls run the show now, in many’s eyes, but strange occurrences like these turn them against each other.

If anything, their only competitive and contentious battle should be a sales and impact one. After all, they both have highly anticipated albums on the way. First there’s Barb’s Pink Friday 2 and then we’ll get Bardi’s sophomore studio release. Maybe one day, the two of them can put everything aside, despite how much the world around them wants to clash. On that note, stay posted on HNHH for the latest news and updates on Nicki Minaj, Offset, Kenneth Petty, and Cardi B.

Offset Reacts To Kenneth Petty’s Stakeout Video

Seeing drama unfold between Nicki Minaj and Cardi B is really nothing new in the world of hip-hop, but now, the pair’s husbands are trading shots via social media. On Friday (September 15) evening, a video of the Queen of Rap’s partner, Kenneth Petty, standing outside on a stakeout for Offset caused the former to begin trending on Twitter. In the video, the sex offender and his affiliates made it abundantly clear that they were hoping to cross paths with Cardi B’s other half.

“Offset, where you at?” a voice behind the camera in the tweet below asks, filming a group of buildings outside. Upon turning to see their faces, we see Petty markedly mean mugging the phone with two friends, who only become more reckless as they continue recording. “Big Zoo outside ni**a,” the one holding the phone yells, panning his view to reveal that the group of men is drinking beside a pile of trash bags. “Don’t let these ni**as fool you, we run this city,” they continued to berate their haters.

Kenneth Petty Has Eyes Out for Offset

According to Akademiks, while Minaj’s husband and his crew were on the hunt for the “Clout” rapper, he was having the time of his life at Kai Cenat’s place in Atlanta. Fans of Offset were beyond happy to see him letting loose and having a blast during their 24-hour stream in promotion of his upcoming album.

Of course, after what happened to Takeoff in 2022 there’s understandable concern for the lyricist’s safety. Still, he made it clear that he’s not bothered by Petty – or anyone else for that matter – in a response video flaunting his massive wealth.

Nicki Minaj Previewed A ‘Pink Friday 2’ Song And Performed ‘Last Time I Saw You’ At The 2023 MTV VMAs

Nicki Minaj has a new album coming soon, so what better time for her to return to the VMA stage? Nicki took a break from her hosting duties — one year after being honored as a Video Vanguard — to perform her new single, “Last Time I Saw You.” As the song itself is relatively intimate in comparison to NIcki’s last few chart toppers, her performance was suitably stripped-down, opening with Nicki standing at the mic in a billowing gown — which she slowly doffed as she continued her performance.

Then, at the close of the song, she decided to hit the audience with a new song from the upcoming Pink Friday 2. “I like my hundreds blue,” she declared on the hook, while issuing combative lyrics demanding acknowledgment for her trendsetter status. There are definitely going to be some Barbz taking this thing way too seriously by tomorrow morning and I’m already exhausted — but the beat’s nice and it’s Nicki at her battle rapping best.

Nicki is also one of the artists nominated for awards this evening, including Video Of The Year and Hip-Hop Video Of The Year for “Super Freaky Girl,” R&B Video Of The Year for “Love In The Way” with Yung Bleu, Artist Of The Year, and Song Of The Summer. Watch her performance above and keep up with the VMAs on Uproxx here.

Nicki Minaj Is VMAs Ready: “Toes Did, Booty Hole Waxed”

If you’re wondering why today (September 12) has a Friday sort-of feel to it, it’s likely because many stars are continuing on with their weekend shenanigans well into Tuesday. Photo dumps from New York Fashion Week are still surfacing all over Instagram, but many pop culture fanatics have instead shifted their focus to another annual celebration – the MTV Video Music Awards. Nicki Minaj is on hosting duty for the second year in a row, and she’s also set to perform. Others like Lil Wayne, Doja Cat, Megan Thee Stallion, and Cardi B are on the schedule too, and that doesn’t even begin to cover those who have been nominated.

The Queen rapper’s bold personality and infectious sense of humour obviously make her the perfect choice to host the VMAs. Twitter is already buzzing with excitement about what Minaj has up her sleeve. “Nicki finna be on time today ‘cuz she can’t wait to run dat mouth,” one person speculated. Much to the OP’s excitement, the mother of one found time in her busy preparation schedule to confirm that she’ll be showing out this evening.

Nicki Minaj Gives an Update Ahead of the VMAs

“Yup. I’m READY B!CH! Toes did, booty 🕳 waxed ⬇,” the Young Money alum declared. Along with her NSFW announcement, Minaj included a funny photo of Peggy Hill from King of the Hill and her notoriously large feet. Social media has been speculating that we could see some drama between the Trinidadian and Cardi, but seeing as she’s on the clock, our bets are that she’ll keep things mostly professional.

Nicki Minaj isn’t the only female superstar enjoying her time in the spotlight this week. 19-year-old Coco Gauff took home a massive win in the U.S. Open over the weekend, and while celebrating, she posted a video of her rapping along to the Queen of Rap’s “Barbie World” collaboration with Ice Spice. Check out that video at the link below, and tap back in with HNHH later for more updates from the annual MTV VMAs.
