“My big Wave is [one] years old today, I love you big man!!” the post’s caption read. The Atlanta rapper’s post also included two recent photos of Wave enjoying himself on what appears to be a private plane. DJ Khaled, who has collaborated with Cardi B and Offset, celebrated Wave’s birthday in the comments, writing “God Did”. The comment is a reference to the producer’s latest album of the same name.

Offset also posted a photo of himself and his son taken during a shopping trip on Instagram. In the picture, Offset can be seen fixing the baby’s hat while Wave happily sits in the stroller.

Meanwhile, Cardi B took to her Instagram story on Saturday, showing a sweet picture of Wave making a funny face. “Happy 1st birthday Wave,” Cardi’s caption read. The “Bodak Yellow” artist also shared side-by-side photos of Offset and their son making serious facial expressions. “He got his daddies mean mug lol,” she added.

Cardi B and Offset discuss their family

Wave, born last September, is Cardi and Offset’s second child together. His older sister Kulture is four years old. Offset is also the father to three children from past relationships. In an interview with Essence in April, Offset and Cardi discussed their blended family.

“It’s a blessing to be able to have them all together, and to have a wife who’s open and treats them as if they’re her kids,” the “Clout” artist said. “It could be an issue, but I don’t have to go through that and that’s beautiful.”

Cardi offered her own insight on the family’s dynamic.

“I feel like sometimes people who go into a relationship with a man or a woman who has kids with negativity- and I feel like people should embrace it and love it,” the 29-year old stated. “I love our family and I wouldn’t want it any other way.”

Rod Wave’s ‘Beautiful Mind’ Tops Billboard Charts At #1 Pushing 115K Album Equivalent Units

Rod Wave is, once again, topping the charts! For the second time, the artist took the no. 1 spot on the Billboard Top 200.

Rod Wave’s album, Beautiful Mind, was released on August 12, and features singles such as “Cold December,” “Stone Rolling,” and “Alone.” Billboard reported that the album was streamed 157.73 million times. After Soulfly in 2021, this makes Rod’s second no. 1 album. Wave’s Beautiful Mind album also accumulated about 115K equivalent album units during its first week after being released and 113K was made up of SEA units.

The Florida-born artist has accomplished many milestones in his music career so far. Other than his 2021’s SoulFly, Rod’s earlier albums such as Pray 4 Love and Ghetto Gospel didn’t come out on top, however, they still secured a spot in the chart’s top 10 at the time. Prior to the debut of Beautiful Mind, Rod informed his fans that this will be his “last sad ass album.” He tweeted,

“On my baby’s dis my last sad ass album I’m off dat jus wanna live happy travel get dis money”

Rod Wave sits in the the charts’ Top 5 above some today’s the greatest artists. The top 5 list includes Bad Bunny who came in at Number 2 with Un Verano Sin Ti . Beyoncé coming in Number 3 with Renaissance and Megan Thee Stallion following at Number 4 with Traumazine. Lastly, #YoungBoyNeverBrokeAgain hitting Number 5 with The Last Slimeto. DJ Akademiks even placed his bets that Rod’s album was going to make it to no. 1. On Aug. 19, Akademiks tweeted,

“Rod Wave ‘Beautiful Mind’ sells 125K first week. He will easily get the #1 spot on billboard next week.”

Originally, Rod’s “Beautiful Mind” album was delayed as he was arrested and charged with battery back in May. Wave pushed the album release to June, previewing some new music. Although the album was pushed back even further, everything seems to have settled down with the case as Rod was able to walk away. Check out what Twitter has to say regarding his no. 1 debut.

Cardi B Said “I NEVER F*CKED A BROKE N*GGA AGAIN” After Catching Ex-Boyfriend Steal $20K During Stripper Days

It’s no secret rapper Cardi B has lived a crazy life. From dancing on the pole to hitting the stage, Cardi has definitely experienced some insane moments through her journey. The Bronx rapper reveals she once had $20,000 stolen from her while she wasn’t home.

According to HipHop DX, the 29-year-old rap artist sat down with Angela Yee on the last episode of the Lip Service podcast where she discussed a robbery that left her traumatized. She tells Yee she came home one day and all her money was gone.

A disturbing moment in the interview.

The W.A.P. artist stated she used to say, ‘I’m 20 years old and I got $20,000. And that just always made me hyped up ’cause I worked hard for it.” Cardi told the girls on Lip Service she shook her a** real hard for it and then came home one day with only $1000 left in her stash. She said, “I’m counting the money and everything, I’m about to put it in my stash and I’ve got like $1,000.” The rapper admitted she was going insane calling him as he went a whole day ignoring her. “I’m traumatized. This n*gga gave me back like $4,000, talking about, ‘The weed, I got the package…’ It traumatized me. I can’t. See, I’m almost getting shaky.”

Cardi tells Lip Service she worked for her $20k before any surgeries and that was the breaking point of their relationship.

The “Hot Sh*t” rapper admits she got her a** done when she was about 21. She says she always had big breasts, but she was so skinny so she had to work extra hard as a dancer to make her money. After questioning her ex about taking off to California for some weed, she claims he said he was not getting an ounce he was getting pounds. She continued to express that she felt she had to get rid of him. She did not want to risk more money stolen. “I used to pray to God like, ‘God, please let me stop now, I just don’t wanna like this n*gga anymore. Like, let me move on.”

Cardi B And Offset Share Photos And Name Of Their Son

Grammy Award-winning rapper Cardi B and her husband, award-winning rapper, Offset, shared photos and the name of their first son.

Offset, whose real name is Kiari Kendrell Cephus, posted a viral photo of their baby boy via his Instagram page on Apr. 15.

Cardi And Offset’s Son’s Name Is Finally Revealed

“WAVE SET CEPHUS” the image’s caption read.

Cardi, whose real name is Belcalis Marlenis Almánzar, also posted a photo of their seven-month-old with the simple dinosaur, Wave, and a teddy-bear emojis.

The couple has another child together, Kulture Kiari Cephus (3). Offset also has an additional three kids, Kody Cephus (7), Kalea Marie Cephus (7), and Jordan Cephus (12).

Their entire family appeared on the cover of Essence magazine’s latest issue.

The Pair Discuss Their Family Dynamic In Essence

In the issue, Cardi admitted that she didn’t want to reveal her son’s name due to the toxicity of the internet. Unfortunately, she witnessed mean comments toward her daughter online in the past. As such, she recently made Kulture’s two million-follower Instagram page private.

“We went through a lot of sad things when it comes to Kulture—terrible behavior that not even the older kids have ever been through. So many people will post mean, disgusting things just to get a reaction from [Offset and I]. It was for that reason the couple waited to show Wave to the world. We want to protect our feelings because we get very, very angry and upset.”

She also revealed that she didn’t meet her husband’s other kids until after they got married.

“After we got married, that’s when I first met his kids. I always wanted them to love me, and they really do. They tell me that. I feel it, and I hope that we always have a great relationship.”

The pair got engaged in October 2017, when Offset proposed to the Bronx native during Power 99’s Powerhouse concert in Philadelphia, Pa. However, documents obtained by TMZ showed that they actually got married in September of that year but kept their union private.

“We were making out, and he was like, ‘You’re going to have my baby one day,'” Cardi recalled. “I was like, ‘We ain’t having no baby. You have to marry me,’ and he was like, ‘Alright, let’s get married.'”

The rest was history.

Cardi posted a video of a beautiful custom diamond necklace she and Offset purchased for their son.

“When Set suggested Wave, I was sold! THAT HAD TO BE HIS NAME!” she wrote.

The chain was made by famed jeweler to the stars, Elliot Eliantte.
