Scandals

Then, in January 2018, Offset was criticized for rapping a line that includes the lyrics “I cannot vibe with queers” in his feature on YFN Lucci’s “Boss Life”. After the lyric was understood as homophobic he apologized saying he did not intend for his use of the term “queer” to be directed at the LGBT community. His wife, Cardi B, said that Offset did not know the term “queer” had a homophobic history. He has mentioned that he assumed the lyric was using the definition of “queer” which is defined as eccentric and odd.
