    Rapper Offset is facing a mounting tax problem just as his divorce from Cardi B plays out. Reports say his unpaid tax debt has grown into the seven-figure range, putting fresh pressure on already tense personal and financial dynamics.

    According to the coverage, the IRS and state filers have imposed multiple liens on Offset’s property—one federal lien reportedly at about $1.5 million for tax liabilities tied to recent years, with additional amounts from state authorities. The exact total remains somewhat unclear publicly, but insiders say it’s “close to $2 million”.

    What makes this more than a mere tax story: All this unfolds whilst Cardi B and Offset’s divorce negotiations are stalled. Cardi has publicly claimed one of the sticking points is Offset’s financial demands, including that she cover his tax bills and property transfers in order to finalise the split.

    For fans, analysts and anyone watching celebrity finances, several themes emerge:

  • The tax liens raise questions about Offset’s financial planning, obligations and potential exposure beyond just the musical brand.
  • The divorce context adds a layer of complexity: financial liabilities aren’t just personal—they can influence asset division, custody, and public image.
  • Cardi B’s willingness to highlight the tax issue suggests she sees it as more than incidental—she frames it as part of the leverage around their separation.

    • Whilst neither party has provided full transparent accounting, the debt alone is large enough to affect settlement talks, future earnings and how both artists navigate their independent paths. In the coming months, watch for how the liens get resolved, whether Offset pays down or structures the debt, and how that resolution affects his and Cardi’s public and professional narratives.
