As tributes continue to pour in honoring Migos rapper Takeoff one day after his senseless death, Offset is breaking his silence… Sort of.
As you’ve surely heard by now, Takeoff, born Kirshnik Khari Ball, was shot and killed early Tuesday morning at a bowling alley in Houston, Texas after a confrontation reportedly broke out following a game of dice. His record label revealed Tuesday night the rapper’s life was taken by a “stray bullet,” which could potentially help the investigation for the shooter, who is still at large.
Friends, fans, and loved ones have spoken out. But his groupmate, friend, and cousin Offset has kept quiet. While he’s still holding his tongue, he did find a way to subtly honor Takeoff.
