N.O.R.E., the rapper and host of Drink Champs, says he once obtained footage that he believes clarifies persistent rumors involving Offset and Saweetie. For years, speculation has suggested the two may have been involved during Offset’s marriage to Cardi B, a claim neither has confirmed. The topic resurfaced during N.O.R.E.’s appearance on The Jason Lee Show, where he described encountering the material firsthand. According to the host, the footage came to light during an interview with Quavo and Takeoff, a conversation that later took on added resonance as one of Takeoff’s final recorded appearances.
Despite the intrigue, refusing to release footage has kept N.O.R.E. prominently discussed online. During the interview, Jason Lee pressed him—partly in jest—on whether he might share it with Cardi B. N.O.R.E. declined without hesitation. “I respected man code… and took it out,” he said, adding, “Nope… Offset, I got your back.” He did not confirm the rumor outright, but his refusal to elaborate has fueled continued debate among listeners, which, in turn, has kept N.O.R.E. in the spotlight.
From One Lyric to a Lingering Rumor
The origins of the speculation trace back to 2022, when Quavo appeared to allude to a betrayal in the track “Messy,” from Only Built For Infinity Links. In his verse, he raps, “I said, ‘Caresha, please’ (Soo) ‘cause she too messy (Please) / Btch fcked my dog behind my back, but I ain’t stressin’ (Not at all).” With hip-hop figures, including N.O.R.E., so often involved in these discussions, fans quickly connected the lyric to earlier gossip, amplifying conversations online. The timing, arriving after Quavo and Saweetie’s 2021 breakup, only intensified scrutiny.
In the years since, the rumor has lingered alongside broader tensions within the orbit of the former Migos. Offset has consistently rejected the claim. In a 2023 interview with Keke Palmer, he said, “No, man. It was a rumor, man. And I feel like it was something deeper than that for the split of me and bro. I don’t really want to touch on [it], but it’s something deeper than that. I think that was a thing that — a bug that I heard.” He added, “I think people was trying to tear my situation down in that situation.” Throughout these developments, N.O.R.E. remained involved at the center of the conversation.
