For many fans who had hoped for a reconciliation, his latest revelations have quashed those expectations, signalling that the chapter with Cardi is closed for good.
Are Offset and Cardi B reconciling?
It has been about a year since the pair, once considered one of hip hop’s power couples, publicly aired their marital struggles after Cardi pursued divorce.
Since then, there have been several instances where both parties have exposed the other.
The former Migos member is preparing to release his new album, Kiari, on August 22.
Among the tracks, one in particular, Move On, stands out as a reflection of his healing process and personal growth.
In a recent interview with the Associated Press, Offset shared the intention behind the track
“That’s what the message is supposed to be. It’s all love and peace. I just ended the album with that, just to end that chapter because it’s time to move on, it’s over and done with.”
Offset further explained that he is ready to let go of his past relationship with Cardi, making it clear that neither of them should be defined by it anymore.
“It was great while it lasted. That shouldn’t be the topic for either one of us no more. It’s a book that’s closed,” he said.
In addition, BET reported that the 33-year-old opened up during a conversation with Ebro on Apple Music, acknowledging his shortcomings in the relationship.
He admitted he made mistakes but emphasised that the love between him and Cardi had been real.
