Offset. In cue, the two remaining members of Migos gave *** surprise performance at the bet Awards in honor of the late takeoff, died at the age of 28 last year after being shot outside of *** bowling alley in Houston. Offset in Cue's relationship has been on the rocks for some time now, even before takeoff's death, but the two were able to squash their beef to honor their loved one by performing their hit bad. And Bougie Cardi B. Offset's wife took to Twitter to show her love. I can't take it right now. Proud of the boys. Cardi B said on Twitter offset and cue both posted on social media to express their pain at the time of takeoff's death. My heart is shattered and I have so many things to say, but I can't find the words offset said via social media. I've been going to sleep and waking up hoping that all of this is *** dream, but it's reality and reality is *** nightmare. Offset continued. He never worried about titles credit or what man got the most shine. That wasn't him. He didn't care about none of that. As long as we brought it back home to the family. Cue said via social media.
