‘Kulture Got the Best Parents In the World’: Cardi B and Offset Throw Their Daughter Kulture a Lavish Second Birthday Party

Cardi B and Offset‘s daughter Kulture Kiari Cephus turned 2 years old on Friday, July 10. The 27-year-old rapper marked the special occasion by throwing her baby girl an L.O.L. doll-themed birthday party.

“Ok it’s time to turn up 🎀,” she wrote in a July 10 Instagram post alongside a photo of her with her husband, Offset, and Kulture standing in front of a stash of pink balloons wearing color-coordinated outfits. The proud mother of one threw some major “money” for the event, gifting her daughter with a four-tier L.O.L themed-cake and Kulture-themed cocktails for the adults.

Cardi B’s 24-year-old sister Hennessy Carolina bought Kulture a pink electric toy car. The lavish party contained a large ball pit for the children, a painting station, as well as a cotton-candy machine on wheels. In case you were curious, Cardi B and Offset took COVID-19 safety precautions by gifting every guest with a Kulture-themed face mask.

The Bronx native’s photo received over 4 million likes and some 25,000 comments from fans raving over Kulture’s elaborate birthday bash. “Kulture got the best parents in the world 👏🏾,” someone commented. “She looks soooooooo happy 💜😩😍,” another fan noted. “Awwww she looks adorable 😍😍 time to turn up,” somebody else expressed.

Cardi B and her husband rapper Offset met at an industry event in 2016 and secretly got married the following year in September. She explained in a lengthy Twitter post from 2018 that the two tied the knot on a whim, sharing that they found someone to marry them and insinuating that they did not have a lavish wedding.

Rumors swirled in January 2018 that Offset allegedly cheated on his wife. At the time, people speculated that Cardi B was pregnant with their daughter Kulture. She confirmed her pregnancy three months later in April during a performance on “Saturday Night Live.”

Still independent.

We hope this story was worth your time. For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed Black-owned and independently run. We didn't get here by waiting on ad budgets that were never built to prioritize us. Our readers did that.

Corporate support for Black media has always been thin. Outlets like ours get roughly 1% of the $170 billion spent on U.S. advertising each year, and that margin is shrinking further as advertisers walk back the DEI-linked commitments they made in 2020. That's the backdrop. It's not why we're asking.

The wider picture isn't any steadier. Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under, it's rarely the ones built to center a Black perspective from the ground up that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
