As the year draws to a close, Cardi B is making headlines for more than just her chart-topping hits. In a recent cryptic Instagram Live session, the “Bodak Yellow” rapper hinted at significant life changes on the horizon, including a potential break from her husband, Offset, as she gears up for the new year.
The exclusive Instagram Live, brought to light by blog Gossip of the City via Page Six, captured Cardi’s candid discussion about her New Year’s resolutions. Offering a piece of advice to her followers, she urged them not to wait until the last minute to embark on self-improvement journeys. “Don’t wait until the 25th or like three days before the new year,” she emphasized, pledging to take the “New year, new me” mantra to heart.
In a moment of raw honesty, Cardi stressed the importance of shedding what she referred to as “dead weight” in her life—be it negative mentalities, procrastination, laziness, or even certain individuals. The emotional weight of parting ways with people who may no longer serve a positive role in her life was palpable as she seemed to fight back tears during the discussion.
Looking ahead to 2023, the Grammy-winning artist boldly declared, “Next year is gonna be all about me.” She hinted at significant changes across various facets of her life, including her career, finances, and personal well-being.
The cryptic message gained added significance when fans noticed that Cardi B and Offset, the hip-hop power couple, had unfollowed each other on social media. Cardi took to her Instagram stories on December 4 to reflect on relationships, stating, “You know when you just outgrow relationships.” Offset responded with a hint of shade, sharing a clip of Al Pacino’s Scarface character expressing self-reliance.
Cardi B, 31, and Offset, 31, who got married in 2017 and share two children, have had a tumultuous relationship marked by on-and-off phases and past cheating scandals, as detailed in a timeline by Insider. As Cardi signals a fresh start, fans are left eagerly speculating about the future of this high-profile couple and what the new year may hold for the chart-topping artist.
