The internet is buzzing with reactions to Offset’s lyrics blaming his failed marriage with Cardi B on her not cooking, sparking a fierce roasting online.
Offset, who released his third studio album KIARI on August 22, has publicly aired his frustrations about their relationship, referencing why their marriage reportedly ended. In the song “Folgers“, he raps: “Bitch ain’t never happy / why you think yo n— cheat / 10 carat diamond had to swap the wedding ring.” The album’s last track, “Move On“, seems to elaborate on his breakup, with lyrics like: “You never cooked no food / You just want to go out to Nobu…” and “Hope yo’ next n—’ll be great.”
These lyrics quickly went viral, prompting widespread ridicule and criticism across social media. Many pointed out the absurdity of blaming a breakup on Cardi B not cooking, especially considering her outspoken attitude about her independence. Reddit user r/LiberalBanter commented, “Men will hyper fixate on a woman’s lack of or unwillingness to treat him like a child. Cardi not cooking for you is not a moral failure.” Others echoed similar sentiments, emphasizing how immature and entitled Offset’s attitude appears.
The viral discourse also drew comparisons to Halle Berry’s ex-husband, David Justice, who once complained publicly about her not cooking, highlighting how such expectations are outdated and chauvinistic. A few users on Twitter questioned why wealthy men expect their wives, who are often just as rich or richer, to fulfill traditional domestic roles. One user remarked, “Why do guys want to turn women into housewives? She told you she doesn’t do that,” in reference to Cardi’s own candid lyrics from “WAP”.
Commentators also pointed out how the lyrics reveal a troubling fixation on traditional gender roles, with many criticizing the notion that a woman must cook or clean for her partner—especially when she’s the breadwinner. “She told you she doesn’t cook or clean, but she got that ring,” summarized one Twitter user, capturing how the focus is now on outdated expectations rather than mutual respect.
In the end, the public’s reaction reflects a broader rejection of these sexist stereotypes, with many arguing that relationship compatibility shouldn’t hinge on traditional domestic duties. The meme-worthy outrage underscores how uncalled-for and tone-deaf such criticisms are in modern relationships, especially when gender equality and independence are increasingly celebrated.
