When a final track isn’t just music, it’s resolution.
Offset’s new song Move On, the closing track on his upcoming album KIARI, aims not at drama but at closure. In a candid conversation with the Associated Press, Offset described the track as “about moving on, like, peacefully,” adding, “It’s all love and peace… It was great while it lasted… It’s a book that’s closed.”
This approach feels more like a farewell than a diss: rather than embalming pain in a feud-heavy verse, Offset wraps things up with grace. He said, “That shouldn’t be the topic for either one of us anymore,” underlining his intent to draw a clean emotional line under the chapter of his marriage.
This isn’t simply a breakup anthem; it’s a deliberate period placed at the end of a long sentence. And with KIARI set to drop on August 22, 2025, the track closes not just the music album, but a deeply publicized chapter of his life.
When you close a book gracefully, you can finally write a new one.
A Marriage Defined by High-Profile Fluctuations
Seven years, three kids, public reconciliation, again and again.
Offset and Cardi B’s relationship played out like a celebrity TV epic: secret wedding in 2017, divorces filed (and dropped) in 2020 and again in 2024, and three young children, Kulture (7), Wave (3), and Blossom (11 months).
Their journey has been anything but stable. What started in private turned public, spilling over into social media rants, livestream emotional breakdowns, and reconciliations as headline moments.
Cardi’s candidness, including sharing how mentally and physically exhausted she felt, painted a picture of a relationship that wore her down. Now, Offset’s Move On signals that they’re stepping into separate yet peaceful spaces, with the public closure of that high-pressure relationship.
After the headline-grabbing highs and car-crash lows, sometimes “just peace” is the real victory.
Offset’s Accountability, Without Bashing
Owning up doesn’t mean dragging someone in the mud.
Offset didn’t use Move On to throw shade. In Apple Music’s interview with Ebro Darden, He made clear that while the subject matter is deeply personal, the art isn’t meant to be spiteful.
He said, “I’ve accepted the actions I’ve done to cause certain situations to happen, I had to. But at first I didn’t. I was trying to act tough”, he continued. “But the actions that I did in the time I was acting that way, I realized I was wrong and had to get out of the way. I’m happy with everything and I want the best.”
Offset’s reflective tone, highlighting mistakes on his side, reveals an emotional maturity. It’s a signal: healing doesn’t always need a blow-by-blow public attack. Closure can come from within.
Healing outlives hysteria, and sometimes the biggest flex is forgiving yourself.
Cardi’s Emotional Toll and Public Reaction
How much pressure is too much for a high-profile marriage?
Cardi B didn’t mince words when talking about her emotional state during the relationship. On an X Spaces livestream in June, she shared she was “literally losing my mind… drained, drained, drained… Couldn’t eat… I was getting frequent headaches.”
Her rawness culminated in a chilling admission: “If I was still there, I was gonna end up going to jail, because I was gonna end up killing him, seriously, with my own bare hands.” That intensity lays bare how desperately she needed out, not just for love, but for sanity.
Fans have since seen her step into a healing space, publicly thriving and embracing a new relationship with NFL star Stefon Diggs.
Sometimes survival looks a lot like saying “enough” and just walking away.

KIARI as a Musical Turning Point
This isn’t just an album, it’s a moment of transformation.
Named after his birth name, KIARI crafts a narrative of personal evolution. Giving Move On the final position isn’t just artistic, it’s symbolic. Offset told the AP: “I just ended the album with that… just to end that chapter because it’s time to move on, it’s over and done with.”
By framing his divorce through melody, he transforms pain into art, sending a message that personal chapters and heartbreak can fuel creative rebirth. It’s the kind of full-circle storytelling fans respond to: flawed humanity elevated through self-reflection.
When your art becomes your exit strategy, every note matters.
What This Means for Their Futures
The door’s closed, but the future? Wide open.
With Move On out and divorce filings behind them, both artists seem primed for fresh starts. Cardi is moving forward both emotionally and romantically, while Offset leans into artistic closure with peace.
The public has watched this unfold in slow motion. Now, both deserve the grace to reinvent themselves, free from the burden of shared history.
The past is a closed door, but thanks to Move On, the future’s unlocked.
