Not all female rappers are married, but many have settled down with partners during
or after their successful careers. Some may not be as famous as their wives,
but they deserve their moment in the spotlight. Who are the stars' good-looking husbands?
Cardi B began dating Offset in 2017, with a memorable first date to start.
"I wanted to do something that was not normally done, you know what I'm saying. I wanted to
have fun and not so serious and like, you know, enjoyable time - so I took her to the Super Bowl."
They were engaged later that year, and in 2018,
shortly after welcoming their first child together, rumors of Offset's
infidelity circulated, causing the two to separate for a short period of time.
After reconciling and continuing their relationship for two years,
Cardi B filed for divorce from her husband. The split was short-lived,
though, and the two reconciled again, with Cardi admitting on Instagram -
"It's really hard not to talk to your best friend."
Since their near divorce, Cardi and Offset welcomed a son, whose name they have yet to
share at the time of this video. Cardi introduced their son via Instagram,
sharing a photo of her cradling her newborn next to Offset. The couple told People -
"We are so overjoyed to finally meet our son. He is already loved so much
by family and friends and we can't wait to introduce him to his other siblings."
Eve is a Grammy-winning rapper best known for hits like "Let Me Blow Ya Mind" and "Who's That Girl."
She wed Maximillion Cooper, Gumball 3000 founder, in Ibiza in 2014, with Cooper telling E! News -
"I'm so happy to make Eve my wife. [...] We are both so happy to have tied the knot."
Eve is the stepmother to Cooper's four children, and she's been candid about
the discussions she's had on racism with the whole family, saying on TV One's "Uncensored" -
"They don't have to think about it unless they're close to someone who has gone through it."
Eve noted that while she doesn't think about her and her husband's races anymore,
she did when they first got together, saying on "Uncensored" -
"We are so honest with each other that we have discussions, and that's been a beautiful thing."
"I love you so much, you're going to have an amazing birthday, you might even get a champagne
breakfast in bed and some presents and uh -" "Might?!"
In October 2021, Eve announced via Instagram that
she and Cooper were expecting their first child together.
Jean Grae married her husband, Quelle Chris, in a small 2018 ceremony. Both are rappers,
with Grae earning her spot in hip-hop through underground scenes,
and Chris coming up in the Detroit rap community.
Both rappers are used to making statements, and they use their music to do so.
Grae, in an interview with NPR, explained how her music-making process has changed over time,
writing and releasing her raps in real-time rather than letting months or even years of time elapse.
Speaking about her process, she said -
"It's not just for me. It's for you guys. So we all need to be in this space together."
Meanwhile, Quelle uses his music to make social commentary. Speaking to Bandcamp
Daily about his 2017 LP "Being You Is Great, I Wish I Could Be You More Often", he said -
"The purpose of this album is kind of to show the human element. […] The more
natural and simple emotions, in my mind, are the greatest and most complex ones."
Grae and her husband collaborate, too. In 2018, they released a joint album
called "Everything's Fine." From work to life, these two are truly partners.
DJ Spinderella was a member of the iconic female hip-hop trio Salt-N-Pepa
before sharing via Instagram that she had been terminated from the group. Since her departure,
Spinderella has continued deejaying, and she was a featured speaker at the Women Lead Change series.
Spinderella's husband, Quenton Coleman, is a poet and comedian who's been in the industry
since he was a teenager. His main contribution has been to the comedic scene in Dallas, Texas,
with his local series of comedy shows, "We Got Next."
Spinderella met her comedian husband through a mutual friend,
and the two married after dating for more than six years. The happy
couple resides in Dallas and seems to love their quality time together.
Remy Ma is best known for her work with the rap group Terror Squad,
and her husband Papoose is best known for his rap career as well. The rap couple exchanged vows over
the phone while Remy Ma was incarcerated and officially wed when she was released.
"We had our certificate, we signed it when he came to one of my court dates and we had
a minister do a 3-way call -" "On the phone…"
"-To do our 'do you do?' 'yes I do, I do.'"
Papoose was a major source of support for Remy Ma while she was in jail,
as she said in an interview for TV One's "Uncensored" -
"The only person that 150 percent dedicated their life to me
and making sure that I was okay [...] was my husband."
The "Love & Hip Hop New York" stars renewed their vows ten years after their initial nuptials,
and the two share a daughter. A few years later, the couple shared relationship advice
and opened up about their love for one another, with Papoose telling Hot 97 -
"I knew I wanted to spend my life with my partner from the first
moment I actually saw her. For me, it was love at first sight."
