Cardi B Can't Stop Gushing About Offset — This Is What You Need to Know About Him

10/10/2018 - 02:40 AM

The red carpet [1] at the 2018 American Music Awards [2] was full of the biggest stars in the music industry. And there's nothing a red carpet loves more than a power couple [3]. Beyonce [4] and Jay-Z might have all the nominations, but Cardi B [5] and her new husband, Offset, drew plenty of attention, too.

You definitely know all about Cardi B [6] and her high-profile career, but unless you're a serious rap fan, you might not be as familiar with her husband, Kiari Cephus. Better known as Offset, he's a rapper in his own right and part of the hip-hop and trap trio Migos. The couple, who are the parents of a new baby girl [7], made headlines earlier this year when news broke that they got married quietly in 2017 [8], but if you're curious to know more about him, click through for some facts.

His Music Career Is A Family Effort

Offset's career is primarily as part of Migos, a trio that specialises in "trap" and hip-hop music and you might recognise from songs like "Bad and Boujee" [9] and "Stir Fry." His bandmates, Takeoff and Quavo, are actually his relatives: Quavo and Offset are cousins, and Takeoff is Quavo's nephew, although he's only three years younger and the boys all grew up together.

Drake Is A Fan

In 2013, Drake joined Migos on a remix of their song "Versace," helping it become a viral sensation and achieve gold certification. The collaboration dated back to a casual video of Drake taking Migos's part in a debate with DJ Drama [10] about who was the one to watch: Migos or Rich Homie Quan.

He's A Model, Too

Offset made his runway debut [11] at New York Fashion Week in 2018, modelling for Jeremy Scott.

He Helped Popularize Dabbing

The dab originated in the Southern hip-hop scene, and its exact origins can't be traced. But Migos's 2015 hit "Look at My Dab" turned an obscure move into a bona fide cultural phenomenon [12], making Offset one of the original "dabbers."

Kulture Isn't His First Child

While everyone is obsessed with the quirkily-named Kulture, his daughter with now-wife Cardi B, he's not a new dad for the first time. Offset has three children [13] from previous relationships — two sons, Jordan and Kody, and one daughter, Kalea.
