Offset in Wheelchair During First Concert Since Florida Shooting

Offset is on the road to recovery.

And the rapper (real name Kiari Kendrell Cephus) returned to the stage for his first performance less than a week after he was shot outside the Seminole Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Hollywood, Florida.

Offset got back on the proverbial horse at the University of Arkansas April 11, performing for the school’s annual Rowfest hours after he was released from the hospital. And though he arrived onstage in a wheelchair, as seen in a clip he shared to Instagram, the 34-year-old didn’t let his injury keep him down. 

After being wheeled to center stage, the “Open It Up” rapper—dressed in a red long sleeve t-shirt, black pants, a hat and with a skeleton face covering—stood up and went on to perform many of his songs from his feet. Among the songs Offset performed for the students was Migos’ “Bad and Boujee.”

The Culture artist shared a few clips from the performance to his Instagram April 12, as well as some pictures of his outfit for the occasion. He captioned the series, alongside a red heart, “REAL LOVE.”
