Cardi B Joins Offset on "Jealousy"
Which samples Three 6 Mafia’s “Jealous Azz B*tc^h”.
Offset and Cardi B aren’t interested in what anyone has to say about their relationship, and on “Jealousy”, they make that very clear. The married couple leans into the talk of the tabloids on the new track and its dynamic music video, which features the couple’s children Kulture and Wave as well as Taraji P. Henson.
“There’s a lot of drama between you and your beautiful wife, Cardi B,” the track opens before Offset chimes in (“let’s talk about some music!”) and the Three 6 Mafia beat drops. Offset teased the song’s intro with an Instagram post earlier this week, in which he enlisted Jamie Lee Curtis to reenact James Brown’s 1988 infamous interview with CNN.

Cardi took to her Instagram to reveal Henson’s cameo in the video. In the clip, Cardi calls up her friend Henson to rant about Offset’s player ways, which are further discussed on the track. Offset remains unbothered and straightforwardly tells his side of the story: “Jealousy, that sh*t gon’ eat your heart out / This a AR, sawed off, we’ll slay your squad out / This the beast you brought out, this a feast, we ball out / I’ll eat your heart out, I’ll pull your card out.”

Cardi then claps back on the second verse, delivering a run of hard-hitting bars. “B*tches is mad stupid (Stupid) / They get to the bag and lose it (Lose it) / I’m still in the bed, I live on her head / Water and gas included.”
“Jealousy” is available to stream on Spotify and Apple Music. Watch the married couple fire off in the music video above.
