Cardi B and estranged husband Offset are set to battle it out for the biggest crowd, as they’re scheduled to play competing gigs on New Year’s Eve in Miami.
The Bodak Yellow rapper, 31, and the Migos member, 32, will both perform at the Fontainebleau hotel at the same time but in different venues.
The booking of the gig happened before the recent issues in their marriage prompted the pair to split once again, as per Page Six.
Cardi will perform at the hotel’s pool with DJ Gryffin, with tickets ranging from $5,000 up to $25,000.
Meanwhile Offset will be at the hotel’s hot club, LIV, with tickets ranging from $125 up to $15,000.

On Thursday Offset partied through the night to celebrate his 32nd birthday, as Cardi sat home mourning the state of their marriage.
That night, Cardi broke down in tears during an emotional Instagram Live rant about Offset, in which she furiously denounced him for toying with her emotions at her ‘most vulnerable time.’
But Offset brushed aside the drama of his crumbling marriage to spend the night with his friends and a fleet of busty bombshells.
He and his entourage whirled through venue after venue, first to Coco Miami in the Design District and then to Playa in South Beach.
Offset and his pals remained at the first venue until 3am before dashing off to the South Beach nightspot until 5am, per TMZ.
Meanwhile, during an Instagram Live that night, Cardi called out her former partner for being deceitful in a profanity-ridden tirade.
‘A muthaf**ka will play in your f**king face over and over and over and over again,’ Cardi said.
‘This n***a really like to play games with me when I’m at my most vulnerable time. When I’m not the most confident. He like to play games with me because he knows I’m not an easy girl.’
She continued: ‘Yesterday, I could have been out. I could have been chilling. I could have been this and that. He knows I’m in my house. He knows that I’m chilling. He knows I’m not doing the most, and I really been sparing you. I really been sparing you.’

The WAP hitmaker proceeded to claim Offset had been doing her ‘dirty’ for ‘so many f**king years’ while she helped his ‘motherf**king a**.’
‘Not even a f**king thank you that I got from you b**ch a**. And it’s so crazy that I gotta go to the f**king internet because whenever the f**k I tell you something you don’t take s**t seriously,’ she concluded.
Offset has yet to publicly respond to her fiery rant, which was reposted on Baller Alert’s Instagram.
On Sunday night, Cardi confirmed that she had separated from Offset during another Instagram Live session.
According to E! News, the Grammy winner told her fans that she had ‘been single for a minute now’ and admitted that her hesitation to reveal the news was because she did not ‘know how to tell the world.’
The performer – whose estranged husband was alleged to have cheated on her with Chrisean Rock – remained optimistic about her future, however, and told her fans that she was ‘curious for a new life, for a new beginning.’
The rapper then stated that she was ‘excited’ about her new stage in life.
Last week, eagle-eyed fans noticed that Cardi (born Belcalis Marlenis Almánzar) and Offset (born Kiari Kendrell Cephus) both unfollowed each other.
The rapper also recently shared a cryptic Instagram story post where she revealed, ‘You know sometimes you just outgrow relationships.’
She added in the next story post, ‘I’m tired of protecting people’s feelings… I GOTTA PUT MYSELF FIRST.’

The news came just a week after the musician shared a rather cryptic Instagram story post where she revealed, ‘You know sometimes you just outgrow relationships’
Just an hour before Cardi’s cryptic posts, Offset added one of his own, sharing a clip from the 1983 Al Pacino classic Scarface.
The title character is alone in a huge bathtub as the clip begins with him saying, ‘Hey, f**k you, man! Who put this thing together? Me. That’s who. Who do I trust? Me.’
While it’s unclear if that was aimed at Cardi, he hasn’t posted anything since his wife’s IG story posts.
This certainly wouldn’t be the first time the couple has been on the outs throughout their tumultuous relationship.
The couple reportedly met at an ‘industry event’ in 2016, with Cardi B recalling in a November 2017 Twitter video, ‘He was very consistent. He really wanted to talk to me.’
They reportedly started dating in January 2017, the same month they released a song together called Lick.
In August the couple secretly married in Fulton County, Georgia, though it was not publicly revealed until June 2018.
Offset proposed to Cardi on stage in October 2017 – despite already being legally married – though in January 2018, rumors surfaced that not only had Offset cheated on Cardi, but he had made a sex tape with another woman.
Cardi defended her decision to stay with Offset in February 2018, stating, ‘It’s not right, what he f***ing did—but people don’t know what I did, ’cause I ain’t no angel.’
Pregnancy rumors swirled just weeks later, with Cardi confirming she’s expecting while performing on Saturday Night Live, with the couple welcoming their first child Kulture in June 2018.
After months of cheating rumors, Cardi revealed in December 2018 that she had split with Offset, even denying rumors their entire relationship was ‘fake.’
Later that month, while Cardi was performing at Rolling Loud, Offset took over her set in an effort to win her back, with signs reading, ‘Take Me Back Cardi.’

A month later they had reconciled, with the couple in attendance at the Grammy’s where Cardi became the first solo female artist to win Best Rap Album.
Cardi confirmed Offset had cheated on her in December 2019, though the couple seemed to be going strong into 2020, before Cardi surprisingly filed for divorce in September 2020.
They seemingly got back together just months later, with each giving each other expensive cars for their respective birthdays, before welcoming their second child Wave Set in September 2021.
While the couple has seemingly been going strong since, she admitted in September that she didn’t think they’d actually get married.
They celebrated their six-year wedding anniversary this past September as well.
