Your support makes all the difference.Cardi B has asked fans not to "bash" her estranged partner Offset after the rapper crashed her Los Angeles show with a "Take Me Back Cardi" sign.
The pair announced their separation earlier this month following rumours of Offset's infidelity. The Migos member appeared on stage during the "Bodak Yellow" rapper's headline set at Rolling Loud festival on Sunday (16 December) with a sign made from roses.
The 26-year-old posted a video on Instagram in which she said: "I know I see a lot of people bashing me because I'm defending my baby's father, they think I'm gonna get back together with him. I'm not saying that I'm gonna get back together with him, I just don't like that bashing online thing.
"You just saw Pete Davidson was talking about how he don't want to be on this earth because mad people be coming at him every single day.
"I wouldn't want my baby father to have that feeling because of millions of people be bashing him every day, that's a nasty feeling and I wouldn't want that."
Offset, real name Kiari Kendrell Cephus, and Cardi married in secret in September 2017 and have a child together, five-month-old Kulture.
Following the appearance on stage, Offset tweeted to say that his gesture was just him "trying". He wrote: "All of my wrongs have been made public, I figure it's only right that my apologies are made public too."
Offset is part of the trio Migos, alongside Takeoff and Quavo. Bronx-born Cardi first found fame on reality television show Love & Hip Hop before releasing her debut album Invasion of Privacy which received critical acclaim and broke several music industry records. The Independent recently named it as one of the albums of the year 2018.
