Shortly after the news broke, Quavo, Offset’s former groupmate from Migos, appeared to show support by posting a praying hands emoji on Instagram.
At the same time, rumors quickly started spreading online suggesting that Lil Tjay might have been involved due to past tensions between the two artists. However, those claims were firmly denied, as his lawyer released a statement calling the allegations completely false, clarifying that he has no connection to the incident and has not been charged. “Lil Tjay has not been shot, nor has Lil Tjay been charged with any shooting. Any reporting to the contrary is false,” he said.

Takeoff’s death in 2022.
This recent incident has also brought back memories of a much deeper tragedy within the Migos circle, the death of Takeoff.
Back in November 2022, Takeoff, Offset’s close friend and fellow Migos member, was fatally shot in Houston during a late-night gathering. Reports stated he was an innocent bystander caught in the gunfire following an argument. The rapper passed away at the age of 28.
