Offset, a former member of the influential hip-hop trio Migos, was shot Monday outside a Florida casino and is in stable condition, according to a spokesperson.
Offset, who was once married to Cardi B, is receiving treatment at a hospital, where his exact condition remains unclear.
This incident takes place more than three years after Offset's cousin, Takeoff, was tragically shot and killed at a Houston bowling alley.
The Seminole Police Department reported on Monday evening that one person was injured in the valet area outside the Seminole Hard Rock Casino in Hollywood, Florida. They have not disclosed the identity of the victim.
Police have confirmed that two individuals were detained as part of the ongoing investigation, assuring the public that there is no further threat related to this incident.
Offset, whose real name is Kiari Kendrell Cephus, was a pivotal part of Migos, a Grammy Award-nominated group known for their rapid-fire triplet flow and significant influence on hip-hop. Migos rose to fame with their hit song 'Versace' in 2013 and received Grammy nominations for their acclaimed album 'Culture.'
Offset and Cardi B, who married secretly in September 2017 in Atlanta, share three children together. Cardi B filed for divorce in 2024.
Offset's fellow Migos member, Quavo, has sought to channel the grief from Takeoff's death into advocacy, holding a summit in 2024 focused on gun violence prevention.
The tragic shooting of Takeoff, who was an innocent bystander during a dispute outside a Houston bowling alley, is among a series of high-profile shootings involving hip-hop artists, highlighting ongoing violence in the industry.
