May 2024 ยท 1 minute read

Cardi B and Offset woke up to a phone call informing them of Takeoff's death. On a January 16 episode of the "Jason Lee Podcast," the "WAP" rapper disclosed that she and her husband were in bed after canceling plans to attend a Halloween party that evening. "We just fell asleep and out of nowhere, Offset's phone kept ringing, my phone kept ringing," she recalled. As Cardi B remembered, Offset answered the phone first and quickly screamed the word, "No!" When asked what was wrong, he simply told his wife, "Takeoff is dead."

Cardi B then reportedly "smacked" her husband in shock. "He's just like screaming, throwing things, throwing up, running all over. I was just so scared. I was just crying so much. It was terrible," she recalled candidly. 

The "I Like It" rapper was also close with Takeoff. In an Instagram tribute after his death, she shared, alongside photos of him, Offset and their fellow Migos member, Quavo, a screenshot of DMs the two had exchanged. Probably summing up their relationship well, Takeoff wrote to Cardi B in the convo, "I love you too 4L & After thank you sis appreciate it FR." In her caption, Cardi vowed to Takeoff that she "will remember your remarkable talent and [his] dope a** personality."
