ABOUT OFFSET

Praised for his blistering flows, pummeling anthems, and theatrical showmanship, Offset is one of the most influential GRAMMY-nominated rap icons from the South. He reaffirms that status with SET IT OFF, a sophomore solo album that’s dynamic yet deeply personal. Checking in at 21 songs, it’s Offset in all his thematic and stylistic multitudes. For the critically acclaimed “JEALOUSY,” he teams up with wife Cardi B for an exercise in rap acrobatics and super-charged charisma. On the smooth Don Tolliver assisted “WORTH IT” which the duo performed on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, Offset flexes his diversity as an artist willing to experiment. But beneath the dripped-out machismo, there’s an evolving father of five learning to reckon with the man he’s becoming. Oscillating between invincibility and vulnerability, SET IT OFF is just the latest step in a musical and personal evolution that creates both artistic gems and personal catharsis. As part of the supergroup Migos, Offset became a force in pop culture, with songs like “Bad and Boujee” and albums like Culture cementing him as a legend in the making. As he helped re-popularize the triplet rhythm and collected over 40 platinum plaques as part of the trio, Offset later cultivated a reputation as a legend in his own right. He had standout guest verses on Kodak Black’s “Zeze” and Tyga’s “Taste” going a combined 15-times Platinum. In 2019, he reinforced his solo career with Father of Four, which included the 3x platinum hit record “Clout” with Cardi B. Now, Offset is racing from the man he was to the man he’s supposed to be resolute, reflective, and relentlessly energetic. His influence transcends music into fashion from gracing runways and designing his own merch and film appearing in shows like NCIS Los Angeles and Baby Shark. To date Offset has amassed over 2 billion streams as a solo artist in the U.S. alone.
