Offset came out in support of his wife, Cardi B after Snoop Dogg criticized her hit song ‘WAP’ for being too explicit. Snoop Dogg called for female rappers to “have some privacy, some intimacy where he wants to find out as opposed to you telling him.” “That should be a woman’s pride and possession,” he told Central Ave in response to the raunchy hit single. “That’s your jewel of the Nile. That’s what you should hold on to. That should be a possession that no one gets to know about until they know about it.”
In an interview with TMZ, Offset told the outlet that he’s a big fan of Snoop, but he shouldn’t be criticizing Cardi and Megan Thee Stallion’s number one hit. “She grown,” Offset said of Cardi, who was just named Billboard’s Woman of the Year. “I don’t get in a female’s business, so I’m just gonna say I hate when men do that.”
He als0 pointed out that male rappers are rapping about the same subject, and how it’s time to support women. “As rappers, we talk about the same s**t. Men can’t speak on women — they’re too powerful, first off,” said Offset. “And it’s a lot of women empowerment. Like, don’t shoot it down. We never had this many female artists running this s**t; they catching up to us, like passing us and setting records. That’s two women on one record, that’s a very successful record.”
He went on to say, “We should uplift our women, and don’t say what they can or can’t do. You know how long women have been told they can’t do something or they shouldn’t do this or they been blackballed out of entertainment?” he continued. “So I stay out of female stuff. It’s entertainment. You can go on YouTube to see people shoot videos with guns and talk about killing. We can’t really be like judgmental on certain things and certain things we don’t.” The Atlanta rapper did make it clear that his support for Cardi and her music wasn’t him taking shots at the West Coast legend . “I don’t want to seem like I’m dissing at Snoop,” he clarified.
This past Sunday morning, Snoop took to Instagram to set the record straight about his support of female MC’s. “Stop wit the bullsh**t press I love Cardi b and Meg. Music period point blank and they know that I’m n full support of the female. M.C. Movement.” Snoop said in an IG post. “So stop trying to make me a hater. U.F.D.H.B. Now carry on Before u get this. L.A.D. That song 6xs platinum talk about that.”
