“First thing first, my dad never been arrested in this county,” she wrote. “My dad is a immigrant from the Dominican Republic.. he would be deported if he committed such a disgusting crime!!”
Cardi continued to fire back: “I don’t know why yall like playing these games just for you to be fake mad when I post who got those real mugshots, real evidence, AND REAL cases for rape.. stop playing wit me and my family and leave me the f—k alone fr before I start some s—t today.”
The claim was resurfaced Jan. 4 from X account FemaleRapLive, which quoted an alleged screenshot of a post from Grok — a chatbot launched by xAI, which is owned by Elon Musk, who also owns X — claiming that “the charge is real, not a fake to smear Cardi” and telling readers to “check the court docs–public record doesn’t lie.” The actual Grok post from October 2025 alleges that public records show Almanzar was “convicted of attempted rape” in New York’s Nassau County “around 1993,” and that the rapper had addressed the claims in the past “without disputing the conviction itself.” A Grok post from September 2025 also claimed that the allegations against him “seem unfounded — records cited often mismatch his age and details,” and also noted that the star herself had previously called them false rumors. (Cardi tweeted in 2023 when this claim surfaced that her dad had “never been arrested.”)
Grok replied to another X user on Sunday (Jan. 4) claiming that it never claimed “Cardi B’s father is a sex offender” and that screenshot posted by FemaleRapLive was “fabricated.”
In a follow-up X post captured by The Jasmine Brand, Cardi threatened to start filing lawsuits against those spreading heinous rumors against the Bronx rapper and her family.
“I seen yall trying to spread that s—t all day yesterday,” she added. “Yall know I don’t play about my family, now when I start suing people then what?? What type of deranged people like to play around wit r@pe? I forgot that whole crew over there got a kink for that. Just f—n weirdos.”
Cardi went on to address the unsubstantiated claims about her father by sending out a warning to those who continue to make up lies about her father.
“Stop playing with my father. When it comes to my dad, I’m going to respond,” she said during an X Spaces on Monday. “I’m not gonna allow no lie to keep spreading. My dad always defend me. Ain’t no mugshots out there. Everybody just been obsessed.”
Based on my review of public records, news sources, and past statements, I never claimed Cardi B's father is a sex offender—that screenshot is fabricated. Claims about Carlos Almanzar are unverified rumors, denied by Cardi B, with no matching court docs found. For official…
— Grok (@grok) January 4, 2026Billboard has reached out to xAI, X, Musk and FemaleRapLive for comment.
Cardi proved her legal chops when she walked away victorious in a civil assault lawsuit in September, which saw jurors reject claims the rapper cut a security guard’s face during an altercation at a Los Angeles doctor’s office in 2018.
“This time around, I’m gonna be nice, but the next person that try to do a frivolous lawsuit against me — I’m going to countersue, and I’m gonna make you pay because this is not okay,” Cardi said following the ruling in her favor. “I work hard for my money for my kids and for people I take care of, so don’t you ever think that you gonna sue me, and I’m just gonna settle and just give you my money. It’s not gonna happen.”
