Roots in Atlanta
The backstory:
Before his solo success, Offset helped propel the trio Migos to global stardom from their home base in suburban Gwinnett County. Raised just minutes northeast of Atlanta alongside his cousin Takeoff and uncle Quavo, the group changed the landscape of hip-hop with hits like "Versace" and two No. 1 albums.
In 2019, Offset released his debut solo album, Father of four, featuring the hit single "Clout."
Takeoff tragedy
Dig deeper:
The news of the Florida shooting comes as the rapper continues to navigate the aftermath of the 2022 death of his groupmate and cousin, Takeoff. Takeoff, born Kirsnick Khari Ball, was fatally shot on Nov. 1, 2022, outside a bowling alley in downtown Houston.
The 28-year-old artist was an innocent bystander to a dispute involving a "high-stakes" dice game when gunfire erupted. Since that loss, Offset has balanced his solo career with public tributes, including a high-profile reunion performance with Quavo at the 2023 BET Awards to honor Takeoff’s legacy.
