Rappers Offset of Migos and Cardi B attend the BET Hip Hop Awards 2017 at The Fillmore Miami Beach at the Jackie Gleason Theater on October 6, 2017 in Miami Beach, Florida.
Another day, another Cardi B clapback.

Earlier today, Offset issued an apology following allegations of homophobia from his verse on YFN Lucci's "Boss Life." The rapper claimed he used the dictionary definition of the word "queer" and didn't mean to offend the LGBTQ community. Of course, the backlash comes after allegations that he cheated on Cardi B with footage of him cheating surfacing the web. Regardless, Cardi B's stood by her man's side through all of it. I mean, he put a $500K ring on her finger and then got her name visibly tattooed on his neck. After a fan suggested she leave Offset for someone better, Cardi spoke her peace.

In a since-deleted tweet, Cardi B set the record straight after a fan said she deserves better. The Bronx rapper said that since she met Offset, he changed her life for the better. She said that he helped her build her confidence in her music as well as help bring her get her business straight. 

While she did a quick post and delete, she followed that tweet with something a bit less forward that she kept on her timeline. "People are just too miserable for me," she wrote, "I’m sorry I’m to blessed to be dealing with ya shit today.The negativity is not going to tarnish my feelings from these blessings and opportunities I’m getting .Have a good day."

Many other people have chimed in on Offset's controversial lyrics. LGBTQ songwriter, Starrah, condemned homophobia in hip hop and continued to prove the influence of the LGBTQ community in hip hop and pop culture as a whole.
