    The Migos rapper has teamed up with a gaming company to give new emerging artists a place to showcase their talents amid the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.
    Oct 5, 2020
    AceShowbiz – Offset is working with bosses at gaming and events company Axis Replay to develop new ways for artists to connect with fans.
    As the Covid-19 pandemic continues, live shows remain off the cards, with acts heading online for livestream concerts to keep fans entertained during the crisis.
    The format has become the new normal for stars and their followers worldwide and, speaking to Forbes, Offset insists he’s determined to push the concept to the next level with his latest venture.
    “Fans and artists have been very patient during this long break,” he explained. “As we are all figuring out ways to get back into a normal way of life, we deserve to experience those great live moments we love.”

    “Music is a universal language. It allows us to connect with one another on a happier level. Right now, we can all use that.”
    The joint venture – which is operating under a new production company called AXSD Media – features ongoing virtual performances, as part of the AXR+EXP Concert Series, aimed at spotlighting emerging artists.
    The series’ next event, slated for 16 October (20), will feature up-and-coming stars like Duke Deuce and YRN Mango as well as Offset himself.
    “Being an artist myself, the stage is home,” the Migos star adds. “It was a must that I became a part of an initiative that would not only bring one of a kind live concert experiences but also allow emerging artists to participate, perform and make money. Axis Replay ensured that vision came to life.”
    Tickets to the show are available via FutureStream.tv.

      The Migos star, who reached out to series regular LL Cool J for his acting debut on the police procedural series, will have his new song ‘Danger’ premiered in the same episode he’s set to appear.
      Feb 28, 2020
      AceShowbiz – Rapper Offset is joining the CIA to play an undercover agent on “NCIS: Los Angeles”.
      He will make his acting debut in the show’s current 11th season, joining series stars Chris O’Donnell and LL Cool J’s characters to save a special agent being held captive, according to TMZ.
      In a special behind-the-scenes video, hip-hop star-turned-actor LL reveals Offset reached out to him about making a guest appearance on “NCIS: Los Angeles”.
      “Offset and I, we’ve been talking on and off,” LL explains in the clip. “He kinda came to me and was like, ‘Yo, I’d like to be involved with it.’ ”
      “One thing led to another and they (producers) did their process, went through their thing, and here we are.”
      And LL credits the Migos member with seeking to challenge himself by avoiding typecasting, “When you’re (a) rap artist, they think you’re gonna play a gangster or you’re gonna play a thug… and he’s completely away from all of that… He’s completely breaking type, which I think is great.”

      Offset, real name Kiari Kendrell Cephus, made sure to do his homework before shooting the desert scenes, so he could prove his acting talents.
      “I wanted to be able to show that I could do anything that someone sets in front of me,” he says. “I was studying it because I wanted to make sure I could fill the whole role. I’m doing all my own stunts!”
      In addition to making his acting debut, Offset, whose wife Cardi B made her acting debut in hit 2019 movie “Hustlers”, will also have his new track, “Danger”, receive its world premiere in the episode, which is set to air in the U.S. on Sunday, March 01.
