Offset, born Kiari Kendrell Cephus, rose to fame as part of the Atlanta-based hip-hop trio Migos, alongside Quavo and the late Takeoff. Following news of the shooting, Quavo shared a prayer emoji on social media, sparking concern among fans.
Unverified claims circulating online suggest the shooting may have followed an altercation involving rapper Lil Tjay.
A video posted by influencer Ceddy Nash alleges that Lil Tjay shot Offset after a confrontation. However, these claims remain speculative and have not been confirmed by law enforcement.
Former wrestler Ric Flair posted on his socials prayers for the rapper.
“Prayers for Offset! Stay Strong! Thank you so much for all you have done in my career,” he shared.
Producer and content creator Akademiks revealed online that he had spoken with Lil Tjay team who confirmed that he was not shot but is currently in custody related to the incident.
