As a culture creator and social influencer, Offset's career has elevated to a level of stardom that continues to shape and change the culture of music and fashion, tech/gaming, business investments and philanthropy. As an artist, Offset debuted “Father of 4,” his RIAA-certified gold first solo album including platinum break-out hit single, “Clout."
He has been a heavily sought-after feature artist with hits from established and emerging artists alike. He’s made music with global talents like Drake, Tyga, Macklemore, Marshmallow, Gucci Mane, 21 Savage and Playboi Carti, and charted hits with newcomers like Da Baby, NBA Youngboy and Kiana Lede.
In 2022, Offset released the singles “54321…” and “Code” featuring MoneyBagg Yo as a preview to his 2023 album "Set It Off."
In addition to his music success, Offset is a global fashion icon. His unique style is expressed through streetwear, formal ready-to-wear and couture looks. Offset has walked the runway for global fashion houses Balenciaga, Louis Vuitton and Off-White. As a respected creative director and designer, Offset has been sought after to collaborate with brands such as Lanvin, Marni and Dapper Dan-Gucci.
Offset also produced and starred in HBO Max’s first ever streetwear fashion competition show, “The Hype.”
He has invested in tech brands such as Genies, Muzik Connect and Faze Clan, and has formed AXSD Media to provide live and virtual performance experiences.
As founder of the Sallie Smith Family Fund, named after his late grandmother, Offset has donated/partnered with the American Cancer Society to raise money for bladder cancer research and to provide funding for breast cancer screenings in underserved areas of Atlanta.
His most recent donations have helped Northside Hospital Gwinnett, Berkmar High School, Atlanta Community Food Bank, Opportunity Knocks and the Ellen Degeneres Wildlife Fund.
Offset was married to music superstar Cardi B between 2017 to 2023, and is a father of five.
