However, when it came to discussing his emotions and the grieving process, Offset confessed to finding it difficult to open up.

Talking about Takeoff proved to be an incredibly challenging task for Offset. He explained, “That shit hurts. Like, it's gonna put me in a mood, and I don't want to get in that mood. Some things I don't never tell nobody. He's not here. That shit feels fake, bro. I get through my day thinking it's fake. And I don't say nothing to nobody about it.”

To cope with the overwhelming pain, Offset immerses himself in his music, finding solace in the creation and expression of his art. He shared his excitement about upcoming projects, featuring collaborations with notable artists such as Travis Scott, Future, Chloe Bailey, Latto, and his wife, Cardi B. With a grin, he teased the inclusion of three women on his project, subtly confirming Cardi B's involvement.

Offset's passion for music shines through as he cues up a track featuring Takeoff. The song, recorded before Takeoff's passing, reveals their undeniable chemistry and musical synergy. As the track fills the room, Offset beams, laughs, raps, and gestures along with the lyrics, sharing a poignant moment with his team.

While the loss of Takeoff has undoubtedly impacted Offset deeply, he channels his emotions into his upcoming solo record, set to release later this summer. Music becomes his sanctuary, allowing him to navigate the pain and remember his cousin's enduring legacy.
