Cardi B And Offset Used My Mansion To Shoot A Music Video Without My Permission – Homeowner

Popular rappers, Cardi B and Offset are facing a lawsuit over the use of a luxury Beverly Hills mansion featured in their music video.

The video in question is for Cardi’s song titled “Like What,” and Offset was the one who directed it.

According to the lawsuit, filed by the property owner, the couple went as far as misrepresenting their plans to shoot a TikTok video, rather than a full-fledged music video, in order to avoid paying the usual rental fees.

The homeowner added that he allowed Cardi and Offset to use the property for free, believing it was for a brief TikTok video, but it ended up being used for a high-production music video which has since amassed over 27 million views on YouTube.

Cardi responded, “We paid those people $10,000 IN CASH to rent the property for a whole 24 hours… Now they wanna finesse us trying to say we told them it was a TikTok video… IRON YOUR BEST SUIT BITCH I’ll see you in court!!!!”

WOW.

Belcalis Marlenis Almánzar (born October 11, 1992), known professionally as Cardi B, is an American rapper, songwriter and television personality. Born in Manhattan and raised in The Bronx, New York City, she became an internet celebrity after several of her posts and videos became viral on Vine and Instagram.

From 2015 to 2017, she appeared as a regular cast member on the VH1 reality television series Love & Hip Hop: New York to follow her music aspirations, and released two mixtapes—Gangsta Bitch Music, Vol. 1 and Vol. 2, before signing with label Atlantic Records in early 2017.

Cardi B has since earned three number-one singles on the Billboard Hot 100; “Bodak Yellow” made her the second female rapper to top the chart with a solo output—following Lauryn Hill in 1998, “I Like It” made her the only female rapper to attain multiple number-one songs on the chart, and her Maroon 5 collaboration “Girls Like You” made her the sixth female artist to achieve three number-one singles on the chart during the 2010s.

Her debut studio album, Invasion of Privacy (2018), on which the former two songs are included, debuted at number one on the Billboard 200, broke several streaming records and was certified triple platinum by the RIAA. Critically acclaimed, the album won the Grammy Award for Best Rap Album, making Cardi B the only woman to win the award as a solo artist.
