Offset has taken aim at Nicki Minaj‘s husband, Kenneth Petty, after the embattled sex offender made threats against him in a viral video.
Undated footage began circulating online on Friday (September 15) that features Petty — who is with a few unidentified friends — calling out to the ex-Migos rapper on an empty street in the Theater District in New York City.
Allegedly, this took place on the street where Offset and Cardi B were staying in a hotel, but neither Offset nor Cardi B ever came out to confront the crew.
“Offset, where you at?” Petty’s friend can be heard saying in the video. “We outside, n-gga!”
“Don’t let these n-ggas fool you, we run this city, n-gga!” says another friend.
“We gang outside, n-gga!” Petty then says. “What’s up, n-gga? Big gang money poppin’!”
In response, Offset took to his own social media accounts to laugh off Petty’s video stunts, calling Nicki’s husband and his friends “broke” as he hopped off a private jet.
“I’m getting off a jet, and he’s funny,” Offset said, laughing. “Fuck these n-ggas talmbout? We hoppin’ off jets, n-gga. Talmbout ‘outside.’ Extremely broke!”

Petty’s videos prompted a flurry of responses while seeming to provoke an all-out Stan war between the “Bardi Gang” and “Barbs.”
“So Kenneth Petty and his slow friends went outside on an empty street at 4am to go live and threaten Offset. This is who y’all queen of rap is married to. A washed broke 45yr old sexual predator and gang member. Kenneth need that ankle monitor back on,” wrote one fan.
“All these n-ggas atleast 35 standing on a corner screaming at a phone,” wrote another, while a third quipped: “Imagine driving by and seeing them scream into a phone.”
“This is extremely corny lol,” wrote another die-hard Cardi fan. “all because she don’t want to fight Cardi, sending other women didn’t work, lies didn’t work so now she sending her husband & friends lol.”
Still, there were some fans that were decidedly #TeamNicki no matter what Petty had done. “So basically the exact same thing cardi did to Malibu standing in a random street in New York at night on live looking for her…” wrote one Barb in a since-deleted tweet.
Uncorroborated rumors suggest that this beef between Petty and Offset was sparked by a DM that Offset allegedly sent to Minaj’s crew after her VMAs performance. However, there’s no evidence, as of this writing, to suggest that this is the case.
Cardi B and Nicki Minaj did, indeed, have beef with one another back in 2018, but Nicki put an end to a series of back-and-forth posts with a positive tweet.
Since then, the two rappers have gone back and forth, periodically re-igniting and “deading” their beef, with 50 Cent calling the feud between Nicki Minaj and Cardi B “interesting.”
“The way I had competitive energy: Hip Hop culture makes you battle,” Fif said. “I love Nicki Minaj, but the funny shit is, I like watching her when she’s upset. I like that because she has something that comes from the experience of living in South Jamaica. I’m looking at it like, ‘Yo, I know they think she’s nuts, but they only think that because they don’t understand.’ I get it. She thinks you’re trying to play her.”
He continued: “When Cardi B came, I thought she was dope. She’s from the bottom. She was in Club Lust in Brooklyn. [Going] from that and actually making a hit record and turning into who she did? I don’t know why anybody wouldn’t like to see that. It felt like she got everything — married, the baby — it came really fast. That’s the American dream right there.”
“When her and Nicki clash, I go, ‘Oh, shit, it’s going to be interesting to watch how it plays out,’” 50 added. “Lyrically, I won’t say anything competitively about the two of them, but I love Nicki. I don’t have anything against Cardi. I think anyone who comes now, she is going to check their temperature. Nicki is going to check if this bitch is friendly or looking to take over the shit.”
When someone is lurking outside,black hoodies in the cold. Take these threats seriously yall. I know offset trying to be cool flaunting his money(even though Nicki got more money than offset and cardi combined) but offset needs to handle this
In da South everyone understands good things come 2 those that wait & the best revenge is served cold. No cameras needed.A flash💥 maybe but no cameras🫣
Nicki is corny and Rem killed her years ago Petty is an out of work clown who will always be a sexual predator. Nicki has no where near the money or Off & Car combined. The only ones thinking nicki is large like that are her barbz.
They are bums Nicki should do what she needs to do.all these so call famous people acting like they on the streets. When you throw your life away for crumbs I look at you side ways.only rappers do this .it’s so ghetto you wouldn’t see Clint black and Blake Shelton doing this what are my people doing.nicki deserves better .no wonder hip hop is so targeted sometimes they bring it on themselves. You can tell they never really had anything before.grown ass men it’s a shame.
Whatever happened to moving in silence? If they were really serious, they wouldn’t broadcast. Also, in addiction to being a sex offrnder, Petty is known, so unless he wants to get caught, why not send the goons?
these are supposedly ‘grown men’? never watched something so hilarious and depressing at the same time. let’s just pray they don’t reproduce
What a beautiful culture. I’m so glad they brought it to North America for us all to see.
Tell the white barbarians that brought them over to stop buying it.
Why is that what they always go to? It’s schoolyard crap.
Crabs being crabs. 🦀
